flag Migrant workers in Romania face rising fear and violence amid far-right rhetoric, despite their vital role in the economy.

flag Migrant workers in Romania, especially from Nepal, Sri Lanka, India, and Bangladesh, are reporting increased fear due to rising hate speech and isolated violence, linked to far-right rhetoric. flag Incidents include assaults on delivery workers after online calls to reject non-Romanian drivers, prompting some to label bags “I am Romanian” to avoid hostility. flag President Nicusor Dan condemned the violence as xenophobic, while the Council of Europe warned of escalating hate in political and media discourse. flag Despite Romania’s critical reliance on foreign labor amid severe shortages, false claims about job competition persist, and police lack official incident data, though unions offer legal support.
