A notorious extremist, staunch anti-European, with  anti-Semitic views, retired general Radu Theodoru is extremely focused on what he calls the “Judeo-American occult”.

Romanian prosecutors named Theodoru as one of the  individuals in their  treason investigation announced Thursday.

Often invited to the Russian Embassy in Bucharest, Theodoru believes that Romania “is under NATO occupation without a mandate from the people”.

The retired general has posted on YouTube as “The General Staff of the Vlad the Impaler Command”, where he attacks NATO and the European Union.

Journalist Cristi Dumitriu posted a detailed profile of the general on his Facebook page.

<< I see that there is great anger among the supporters of Calin Georgescu and the AUR party about the retired general Radu Theodoru…and some write without knowing who he is, so let me tell you:

“He is a nationalist, racist, anti-Semitic, anti-Western, a fan of Marshal (Ion) Antonescu(Eds: fascist WWII leader), and is the  author of several works denying the Holocaust. He is a supporter AUR.”

He also praised (far-right firebrand) Diana Șoșoacă and defended her when she was banned from running for  president: “Attack on Romanianness! Diana Șoșoacă was and is the strong voice of Romania, who became the target of the globalist conspiracy and its servants.”

In 2023 the retired general was invited to the Russian Embassy along with Diana Șoșoaca where he dressed in Romanian Army uniform(see photo).

A former aviator, during the years of communism he dedicated himself to realist-socialist literature, according to the communist current in art, and was a prolific writer of literature with historical, military, science fiction, adventure and political subjects. He wrote plays, novels, short stories and reports, his favorite being the historical prose which he made his name with.

Ster 1989, Radu Theodoru officially switched to the extreme right, pro-Antonescu and with pro-Legionnaire views. Theodoru was one of the founders of the (nationalist) Greater Romania Party, occupying the position of vice-president, but was excluded from the party following a conflict with its president, Corneliu Vadim Tudor.… For him, the country’s biggest enemy is the Jews, against whom he has written the most, but he has also accused other ethnicities and foreigners in general, NATO and the EU.
