Deputies of the Committee on Foreign Policy of the Chamber of Deputies began the hearing of Foreign Affairs Minister Oana Toiu regarding the repatriation of Romanian citizens from areas affected by the conflict in the Middle East.
On Monday, Social Democratic Party (PSD) President Sorin Grindeanu asked Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan to send the Control Body to the Foreign Affairs Ministry to verify the situation regarding the transport of Romanians from the conflict area in the Middle East. At the same time, he announced that he would ask the party's lawmakers in the foreign policy committees to summon Minister Oana Toiu and Romania's consul in Dubai for hearings.
Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Policy Hajdu Gabor told AGERPRES on Tuesday that he is following "with concern" the situation of Romanians stranded in those areas, adding that he has been receiving calls from many of them.
"It is clear that we are watching with great interest and concern what is happening in the areas affected by the escalation of the war in the Middle East. We are monitoring what is happening to our fellow citizens who are stranded in these areas. I can tell you very openly that I personally receive phone calls from them and they are asking for information. The decision to convene the meeting of the Foreign Policy Committee was taken in this context, in which many Romanian citizens are in these states affected by the Middle East conflict," MP Hajdu Gabor mentioned.
