Social Democrat deputy Bogdan Ivan Gruia said on Thursday that he asked the Prosecutor General "to shed light" in Florin Citu's appointment as Prime Minister of Romania and his exercising the mandate of government head, while having been "criminally convicted by a US court".
"The Romanians have the right to know the truth! I asked Romania's Prosecutor General Gabriela Scutea to shed light on Florin Citu's appointment to Prime Minister of Romania and his exercising the mandate of Premier, although he has been found guilty of a criminal offense by a US court. I also called on the President of Romania, Klaus Werner Iohannis, to support the enforcement of the law and of the principles of the rule of law, for which a national referendum was called, which was validated by the overwhelming majority of Romanians. We want these principles of law to be respected and applied in the case of each Romanian, regardless of whether he is an ordinary man or the Prime Minister of Romania," the Social Democrat deputy wrote on Facebook.
He adds that he wants to see if in 2021 Romania "it is possible to know if the country's Prime Minister is criminally embattled or not", Agerpres informs.
"Just that! The Romanians deserve to know the truth, and the law must be there for everyone!," Bogdan Ivan Gruia wrote.
