Baloney. He was installed as “king” in 1940 at age 18 in a Pro-nazi coup. He stayed home and got a chest full of medals as hundreds of thousands of Romanian soldiers died on the eastern front fighting for Hitler. He wasnt the real power, but he lived the royal life and gave the nazis his royal fig leaf of legitimacy rather than doing anything risky to refuse them his stamp of legitimacy. He was just as happy to do the same post war for the soviets but of course they weren’t interested in monarchy and didn’t need him.
Then after the Normandy invasion had succeeded and was pushing deep into France and the Russians were closing on on Romania, he switched to the Allied side.
Just another azzwipe royal collaborator. Good riddance to royalty trash. At best, he was a grifter and lived the royal life to whatever group of thugs would respect his “position”. Fwiw... the Brit royals and aristocracy would have done nothing different had Germany taken them over. If they got to keep their status...they would play ball.
European royalty is a blight on humanity.
“when, at 22, he had the audacity to arrest the country’s dictator, a puppet of Hitler”
After 4 years of collaboration with the Reich, sending hundreds of thousands to die for Hitler and as Russia was closing on on Romania, the landings in Southern France went great, and Patton was rolling across central France.
What a leader./s
