President Klaus Iohannis on Friday sent a message of condolences to the families of the victims of the fire that broke out at the Hospital for Infectious Diseases in Constanta and asked the PM and the Minister of Health to take all the necessary measures and "do everything in their power" to prevent any other accidents from ever happening in the hospitals in the country.
Klaus Iohannis said that "unfortunately, the Romanian state failed in its fundamental mission of protecting its citizens."
"This is a dark day, of mourning, for the Romanian people. Regardless of the conclusion of the investigation into the cases of the fire, those who lost their lives today aren't coming back and they will leave a huge empty space behind them," said the head of state.
He also urged PM Florin City and the interim Minister of Health, Cseke Attila, to take all the necessary measures and "do everything in their power" to prevent another accident of the same kind from ever happening again in the hospitals in the country.
