In a joint statement, they said: “We are in disbelief and feel retraumatised by the news that the Romanian authorities have given into pressure from the Trump administration to allow Andrew Tate to travel around Europe and to the US.
Earlier this month, it was reported that the Trump administration had been putting pressure on the Romanian government to remove the judicial control restrictions on Andrew and Tristan Tate.
This includes Paul Ingrassia, Mr Trump’s choice for White House liaison for the Department of Justice, and previously one of the lawyers Andrew Tate hired to fight a human trafficking case.
Close Trump ally Elon Musk also backed Andrew Tate on Twitter / X recently – the platform that he owns – when he said he wanted to “become the prime minister” of the UK.
The Trump administration reportedly requested both Andrew and Tristan Tate have their travel restrictions lifted earlier this month.
