A month before, in October 2024, the General Prosecutor's Office opened a criminal case after the MEP paid tribute to the former legionary leader. Dissatisfied that the judges of the Constitutional Court invalidated the presidential candidacy, Soșoaca transmitted LIVE on YouTube, where he launched a praised message to Codreanu.

“From this moment, it is over with Romania, there is no state, there is nothing more. I can only say” Live the Legion and the captain “who were killed by the same Jewish power that acted now. Shame on everyone!”, Said Şoșoaca.

In February 2025, the Institute for the Investigation of Communism Crimes and the memory of the Romanian exile (IICCMER) filed a complaint against the MEP, accusing it of promoting the cult of dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, convicted for genocide.

On February 11, 2025, in the plenary of the European Parliament, Diana Şoșoaca had an intervention in which he recommended the MEPs to elaborate the foreign policy strategies according to the model of the former communist leader, stating: “No one ever equalized”.
