Oana Eftimie criticized the information that appeared "from sources" about the opening of a fourth criminal case against Călin Georgescu. She reported that Gândul had written that the case involved alleged illegal operations with devices or software programs and attempts to alter data or disrupt computer systems. According to the information presented by Eftimie, the alleged events would have taken place on September 26, five days after the search of Georgescu's residence, and he would have then called a company to check whether surveillance devices had been installed. Eftimie stated that Georgescu had been persecuted for nearly two years and questioned what constituted the crime. She requested clarification on whether there was a court warrant for installing devices in the home, what limitations it had, and what concrete reasons justified the surveillance. She also asked how Georgescu's wife and minor children were protected, as well as what evidence supported the accusations. Eftimie argued that checking for the existence of devices could not automatically be confused with sabotaging an investigation and questioned why Georgescu's wife did not mention the alleged surveillance in previous interviews. #Justiție #Securitate #Ancheta (translated)

The Patria Prima Association announced that it had sent 85 emails that morning to the parliamentarians of Bucharest and the city councilors of the Capital, to find out whether they supported or opposed plans to eliminate some traffic lanes and parking spaces in favor of bike lanes and areas with restricted auto access. The Association argued that traffic in Bucharest was already choked and that millions of people depended on cars for work, family, shopping, and commutes between Bucharest and Ilfov. It also criticized the possibility of introducing fees for car access, questioning how those who could not afford them would get around and invoking the financial situation of STB, which it said was in insolvency. Patria Prima demanded explanations regarding the circulation of ambulances and fire trucks, evacuations in the event of earthquakes or disasters, and the existence of studies or simulations about the effects of the measures on emergency interventions. The Association stated that it would publish the responses from the elected officials and that it had placed the email addresses of Bucharest parliamentarians and city councilors on its website. In the post, the organization stated that small groups of activists could influence the decisions of authorities through debates, petitions, and pressure, while the majority of citizens did not make their voices heard. It urged people to write to their local elected officials and parliamentarians about issues such as traffic, parking, fees, and infrastructure, and to ask for explanations, documents, and written responses. #București #Trafic #DrepturiCivile (translated)

George Buhnici wrote that the division among the great powers would have no effect and that Russia, the USA, and China would try to decide the fate of another country without including it in the discussions. He argued that Europeans, technology, and another element that would be lacking for the three would have been left out of the discussion. Buhnici stated that if Ukraine had enough motivation, it would not only resist but could also bring Russia to its knees. He attributed the difference between the two countries to the heroism of Ukrainians and wrote that they fight because they are building their national history, not because a leader sent them to the front. The author said that the USA and China would have interests, while Russia would be driven by shame and fear. He requested a recent example of a significant Russian achievement for humanity, mentioning space, technology, innovation, industry, medicine, and art, and concluded by saying that he had an example he was about to present. #Ucraina #istorie #eroism (translated)
