1. 20 January 2018 — “And yet… our securitate men deserve the largest budget per head of population in NATO!”

And yet… our securitate men deserve the largest budget per head of population in NATO!

To manage to bring out, in rain and snow, so many people who do not know what they are protesting about… that is a feat! It is called mass manipulation… and it is a subject of study at their “academy”. So yes, the securitate men are worth their money!

Or perhaps I am mistaken… and all these citizens have read the legislative proposals, have carried out thorough studies in comparative law and have reached the conclusion that the proposals de lege ferenda are rubbish and protect the corrupt! Which would mean that we have a people “cultured in the head”, and therefore that our minuscule education budget is more than sufficient for so clever a nation!

Either way, the conclusion that imposes itself is that, all in all, things are fine: the money from the budget goes where it should! Let us rejoice, say I.

2. 6 March 2018 — On the offshore resources

On the offshore project: the full text of the draft — see the page The Offshore Act.

Quite so… who still cares about Romania?

Not those in power, but certainly not the “opposition” either! Not the man who habitually looks on with “attention and concern”. Not the “system”, brimming with services and Anti-corruption men. Not a press with its mouth watering for #rezist and #josciumaroșie…

We still care… but we truly do not count.

On Sunday, 04.03.2018, I posted on Facebook: “The Romanian State is surrendering to the corporations an attribute of its sovereignty — that of legislating and of deciding in the matter of provisions concerning direct taxation!

In recent days I have heard several times on television that the ambassador of the USA, Hans Klemm, in the midst of the scandal of the abuses of the DNA and of the removal of LCK, held discussions at the Government and with Liviu Dragnea “on subjects other than those of justice”. Strange, I said to myself… If it is not politics… then it is money. Always! Then I remembered that representatives of the OMV concern had a meeting with the President at the very beginning of this year, on which occasion the Presidential Administration informed us that “the general director of OMV also underlined the need for predictability of the fiscal and legislative framework, which must support the performance of companies and the development of a stable and competitive business environment. As regards the partnership between OMV-Petrom and Exxon-Mobil for the exploitation of the Neptun Deep block, it continues to represent a major interest, both for the Romanian State and for the investors”. But why so much agitation?

This unfolding of events, somewhat precipitate in a field so little volatile, made me wonder whether there is not under discussion, right now, without our knowing it, how much accrues to Romania from its resources of hydrocarbons and offshore gas (beyond the shore) in the Black Sea. Or indeed whether anything will accrue to it at all… In a way, what is under discussion is the very fate of Romania and of our people for the next 5 or 6 decades, since it is indirectly a question of the schools, the hospitals and the motorways which could be built with money coming from the taxation of the extraction of our resources, of all of us, so long as art. 136 of the Constitution provides that “the riches of public interest of the subsoil, the airspace, the waters with usable energy potential of national interest, the beaches, the territorial sea, the natural resources of the economic zone and of the continental shelf, and other goods established by organic law form the exclusive object of public property”.

I searched… And I found. And that by searching for the term “offshore” on the portal of the Chamber of Deputies and of the Senate of Romania.

The subject of the struggles is the legislative proposal L408/2017 — “Act on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks”.

And what I found after a short search in public sources, on the internet, is astounding. I shall set out the events chronologically first of all:

On 16 August 2017 there appeared on the Government’s site (http://sgg.gov.ro/new/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Legea-offshore-varian… the above-mentioned legislative proposal, a proposal which had 25 articles organised in 5 chapters and one annex. The draft law provides a series of rules concerning the authorisations necessary for works on marine wells, the competent authorities, various procedures and a long series of provisions derogating from the ordinary rules of law in the field of private property, of the environment and other such “trifles” which nobody usually takes any notice of.

On 11 October 2017, Prime Minister Mihai Tudose adopted a Decision sending the said draft law to Parliament for adoption, so that on 26 October 2017 the said draft law was submitted to the Senate of Romania by the general secretary of the Government — Roxana Cezarina Bănică (all the documents may be examined at https://www.senat.ro/legis/lista.aspx?nr_cls=L408&an_cls=2017).

What is interesting is that the draft law which reached Parliament has one chapter more than the one published on the Government’s site, a chapter entitled “Financial and fiscal provisions”. And there lies the rub…

Let us take one by one the thorniest problems of this legislative proposal:

Art. 18 provides first of all that “holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks in the course of performance at the date of entry into force of this law shall benefit, throughout the duration of those agreements, from the level of royalty, the percentage rates of petroleum royalty, the thresholds of gross production corresponding to those rates and the fiscal rules existing at the date of entry into force of this law”. In other words, for as long as there remains a drop of oil and/or gas in the block they are exploiting, the American and Austrian corporations mentioned above (Exxon Mobil and OMV), and the Russian corporation LukOil too, will enjoy the level of royalties and taxes established at the level of the year 2018, it being known that at this moment we have royalties and taxes at derisory levels compared with all the oil- and gas-producing countries of the EU.

Take the royalty on gas, which in Romania in 2018 is set at the level of the gas price of the year 2012, the State collecting a royalty of on average 7% (between 3.5% and 13.5% calculated on a price not updated for 6 years, namely 45.71 lei/MWh). And that while, as we speak, the producers sell the gas at the “market price”, namely at 89 lei/MWh! Now, the market price being twice the “reference” price, it follows that, at this date, Romania obtains a royalty of between 1.75% and 6.75% (on average 3% of the price of the gas extracted from our own soil — a royalty which will fall in percentage terms unceasingly, together with the more than probable rise in the price of gas on the free market in the future), while the Dutch (who, unfortunately, do not give lessons from their embassy in this field too) take approximately 40%… of the extraction! Do you wish to estimate the losses of the Romanian State? You must bear in mind that the most pessimistic estimates show that in the “Neptun” block alone there might be 84 billion cubic metres of gas… of that quantity of gas, had we been Dutch, we should have received approximately 40%, but, being merely Romanians, we obtain on average 3%! It is simple, is it not?

In other words, the Romanian State surrenders to the corporations an attribute of its sovereignty, that of legislating and of deciding in the matter of provisions concerning direct taxation, it being known that at EU level the fiscal rules concerning direct taxes are established by each Member State according to its need for resources.

Moreover, the same article 18 also provides that, “from the date of entry into force of this law, the provisions of Government Ordinance 7/2013 establishing the tax on the supplementary revenues obtained as a result of the deregulation of prices in the natural gas sector (…) shall not apply to holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks in the course of performance at the date of entry into force of this law”. This latter ordinance, from which an exception is sought, is one of the few legislative measures apt to bring an advantage to the Romanian State, providing as it does: “(1) Economic operators, including their subsidiaries and/or economic operators belonging to the same economic interest grouping, which effectively carry out both extraction activities and activities of selling the natural gas extracted from Romania on the national territory, in the territorial sea, in the contiguous zone and/or the exclusive economic zone of Romania in the Black Sea, are obliged to calculate, declare and pay the tax on the supplementary revenues obtained as a result of the deregulation of prices in the natural gas sector, a tax established under the conditions of this ordinance. (2) The tax provided for in paragraph (1) is 60% of the supplementary revenues, as determined in accordance with the annex forming an integral part of this ordinance, from which are deducted the royalties corresponding to those revenues, as well as the investments in the upstream segment”. In other words, the corporations which extract the Romanian deposits from the continental shelf of the Black Sea will not only be shielded from any future change in the fiscal rules, but for the present too only the favourable ones are applicable to them.

And as if that were not enough, in art. 19 we find in the legislative proposal the following statement: “Where the holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks in the course of performance at the date of entry into force of this law are obliged to pay any sums levied by the public authorities in addition to the sums which would have been owed in accordance with this law, they shall be entitled to a full tax credit calculated annually for the additional sums paid; the tax credit shall be granted in the form of a right of restitution at the level of the expenses or costs which the holder bears through the payment of the additional sums provided for in this paragraph”!!! In terms we can all understand: the law which is to enter into force in the absence of a fierce public reaction is to produce retroactive effects, those fiscal provisions being applied to the petroleum corporations from the beginning of their activity, and the sums already paid by way of taxes becoming “fiscal claims with a right of restitution, within the meaning of Act 207/2015”, which means that in the coming years these companies will have nothing whatever to pay to the Romanian State… indeed they will even be able to ask to be refunded the sums already paid by way of taxes under laws which were and are in force, but which will have been rendered lifeless before the petroleum colossi.

Now, if we really insist, we may also try to calculate how much tax we shall have to “refund” to the corporations, bearing in mind that offshore gas production was 686,250 thousand cubic metres (12.64% of Romania’s total gas production at this moment) in the first half of 2017, and that offshore crude production was 122,496 tonnes in the first six months of last year…

This draft law was adopted by the Senate of Romania on 12 February 2018. In this form…

It will shortly reach the agenda of the Chamber of Deputies, the decision-making chamber. Shortly!

With one last effort of naivety I sit and ask myself: does #corupțiaucide — corruption kills — apply also when the beneficiaries are corporations and embassies?

3. 21 September 2019 — “#NouaLegeOffshore — #sabotage or merely #treason?”

#NouaLegeOffshore — #sabotage or merely #treason?

The PSD and Dăncilă — the victims or the accomplices of Iohannis?

Exactly one month after the orders received by Klaus Werner Iohannis from Trump (I know, the politically correct thing would have been to say “from the discussions held by the two Presidents in Washington” — only we no longer have time for transparent hypocrisies!) on the subject of “American investment in energy in Romania”, behold, the PSD government appears to have complied with the directives transmitted via Cotroceni and has pulled from under the table a set of amendments to the Offshore Act, amendments which not even Tudose, at Exxon Mobil’s dictation, could have written better or more favourably for the exploiters. In practice, the PSD has capitulated on the chapter of #Resources! And has surrendered everything.

The new version of the Offshore Act is scandalous and represents, beyond any doubt, a veritable act of national treason. There is no doubt here! Romania will lose at least 20 billion euro. In fact, the Romanian citizen will lose even the little that remained to him after the Offshore Act in the Dragnea version. In the days to come we shall take up again, step by step, the demonstration concerning each article that is to be amended, and we shall see the absolutely disastrous effects of these legislative changes, catalogued by the worms of the bought press as a “new chance for the gas of the Black Sea”…

Until then I return with the same legitimate questions I asked a year ago: who profits from this law, and why does the Romanian State, the State which ought to represent us and defend our rights and interests as citizens, legislate strictly to its own detriment and that of its citizens, and solely in favour of foreign companies?

And, in the end, WHY AND BY WHAT RIGHT DO THE REPRESENTATIVES OF ROMANIA RENOUNCE THE PROPERTY OF ROMANIAN CITIZENS — for the new version of the Offshore Act does nothing other than expropriate the Romanian people of its resources in favour of the exploiters of our riches?

What is more, through the new Offshore Act the Romanian legislator (?!?) is about to renounce voluntarily (?!?) and for ever an exclusive attribute of its sovereignty: the right to regulate taxation in the field of the exploitation of the gas of the Black Sea, setting out in detail over almost a page what the Parliament of Romania will never again be able to change in the interest of the Romanian people… that is to say NOTHING, EVER!!!

The staging of this treason was carefully directed. Only the other day certain pedantic scoundrels appeared under the emblem of the Romanian Academy, thereby defiling an institution that is a symbol of Romania, and presented a survey telling us that over 75.6% of Romanians want the exploitation of the gas of the Black Sea. The survey omitted, however, to ask the Romanian citizen whether he agrees to surrender, free of charge and for ever, the gas that will be extracted from the Black Sea! Perhaps because this survey was carried out by INSCOP (“by chance” a polling house owned by Remus Ștefureac, adviser and close associate of George Maior — former head of the SRI and current ambassador to the USA) at the order of the abject collaborators of the Ion I. C. Brătianu Institute of Political Sciences and International Relations…

For one thing is certain: Romania will touch nothing, absolutely nothing of its resources for as long as

“Art. 20^1. Holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks:

* have the right freely to market the hydrocarbons produced from the offshore petroleum blocks, at the prices and in the quantities determined by them and by the use of any procedures chosen by the holder for selecting purchasers and for concluding contracts with them, whatever the identity or location of the purchaser, in accordance with the EU principles of the free market;

* may not be made subject to restrictions concerning the price, the marketing and/or the sale of hydrocarbons, save for the binding legal provisions of the European Union or those imposed by this law;”

All the above is as clear as daylight.

Only one thing I still do not understand: is someone inside the PSD deliberately trying to sabotage Viorica Dăncilă right now, before the start of the presidential campaign? And if so, who? For the discussions concerning the workplace of Mrs Dăncilă’s husband within OMV will immediately return to the fore… and with such a subject offered to her political adversaries (themselves ever ready for such perfidies), the second round moves away from candidate Dăncilă as our hopes move away from us that we shall ever be able to enjoy what is ours.

Or perhaps Viorica Dăncilă simply gave in to the blackmail of Klaus Werner Iohannis and accepted the terms of Romania’s capitulation before Donald Trump and Exxon Mobil, “discussed” by the President a few weeks ago in Washington?

In the end, Mrs Dăncilă, I do not even care whether you are the victim of blackmail or an accomplice in treason… Treason remains Treason! Whether you commit it of your own initiative or out of weakness or under blackmail! And history does not forgive traitors!

I say to you only this: 20 billion euro is far too high a price for an aeroplane ticket to Washington!

Post scriptum. Two questions have given me no peace this weekend:

Are there still journalists in the Romanian press, or only collaborators? And…

Did Dragnea really go to prison for nothing?

I attach below the proposed amendments to the offshore law… or how abjection and treason can be contained and summarised in a few words:

“Draft law amending and supplementing

Act no. 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks, and the Petroleum Act no. 238/2004

Act no. 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks

1. In art. 2 paragraph (1), after letter l) two new letters are inserted, letters m) and n), reading as follows:

Art. 2. — (1) For the purposes of this law, the terms and expressions below have the following meanings:

the specific fiscal regime applicable to activities of exploration, development, exploitation and abandonment covers the following:

the tax on supplementary offshore revenues provided for in art. 19;

the basis of calculation of the profit tax applicable to activities concerning natural resources, provided for in Act no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code, as subsequently amended and supplemented, applicable at the date of entry into force of this law;

any tax, duty or contribution including, but not limited to, profit tax, income tax, withholding tax, turnover tax and/or tax on property, on assets, on buildings or on land, applicable at the date of entry into force of this law, specifically to the petroleum sector;

a change of the royalty regime and of the fiscal regime — provided for in art. 21 — comprises the following:

the introduction of new royalties, contributions, duties and taxes, including but not limited to profit tax, income tax, withholding tax, turnover tax and/or tax on property, on assets, on buildings or on land, applicable specifically or disproportionately to the petroleum sector. In this sense, the taxes, duties and contributions applicable specifically or disproportionately to the petroleum sector comprise: taxes, duties and contributions applicable to a limited number of sectors of activity, such as the energy sector or the extractive sector, or those applicable to a limited number of economic operators, defined on the basis of limiting criteria, such as turnover or the level of profit.

the increase of the percentage rates of petroleum royalty or the modification of the thresholds of gross production corresponding to those rates, stipulated in each petroleum agreement at the date of entry into force of this law, or the modification of the bases of taxation or of the method of calculating the petroleum royalties owed for petroleum operations of exploitation of petroleum from petroleum deposits, governed by the Petroleum Act no. 238/2004 as subsequently amended and supplemented at the date of entry into force of this law;

the increase of the rates, the modification of the bases of taxation or of the method of calculation of any of the taxes, duties and contributions applicable at the date of entry into force of this law to the petroleum sector;

the introduction of new taxes, duties, contributions or tariffs applicable to the assets specific to the petroleum operations carried out by holders of petroleum agreements, such as: wells, marine platforms, pipelines, stations for the treatment, measurement, receipt and delivery of petroleum.

2. Art. 18 is amended and shall read as follows:

To holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks in the course of performance at the date of entry into force of this law there shall apply, throughout the duration of those agreements, the level of royalty, the percentage rates of petroleum royalty, the thresholds of gross production corresponding to those rates and the specific fiscal regime applicable to activities of exploration, development, exploitation and abandonment, existing at the date of entry into force of this law.

3. Art. 19 is amended and shall read as follows:

Holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks, including their subsidiaries and/or those belonging to the same economic interest grouping, which effectively carry out both extraction activities and activities of selling the natural gas extracted from those blocks, are obliged to calculate, declare and pay the tax on supplementary offshore revenues.

Supplementary revenue means the difference between the weighted average price of the natural gas sold from their own domestic production from the offshore blocks, exclusive of the costs of transport, storage and other logistical costs, and the price of 100 lei/MWh, multiplied by the volumes of gas sold from domestic production from the offshore blocks.

The tax on supplementary offshore revenues provided for in paragraph (1) is calculated by applying one or more calculation percentages, as the case may be, to the supplementary revenues obtained from the sale of the natural gas extracted from the offshore blocks, as determined in accordance with annex no. 2, a tax from which is deducted the value of the investments in the upstream segment. The percentages for calculating the tax are determined on the basis of the selling prices of natural gas charged by the holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks according to the price grid below, adjusted annually from 1 January 2020 by the annual consumer price index, as follows:

30% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 100 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 115 lei/MWh;

35% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 115 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 130 lei/MWh;

40% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 130 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 145 lei/MWh;

50% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 145 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 160 lei/MWh;

55% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 160 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 175 lei/MWh;

60% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 175 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 190 lei/MWh;

70% of the supplementary revenues obtained from charging prices greater than 190 lei/MWh.

The maximum limit of the deduction of investments in the upstream segment may not exceed 60% of the total tax on supplementary offshore revenues.

The economic operators referred to in paragraph (1) shall calculate, declare and pay the supplementary offshore tax monthly, by the 25th of the month following that for which the tax is owed.

The model and content of the declaration concerning the tax on supplementary offshore revenues shall be established by order of the president of the National Agency for Fiscal Administration, within 30 days of the date of entry into force of this law.

In so far as the application of these provisions requires the issuing of instructions concerning the tax on supplementary offshore revenues, these shall be issued by joint order of the minister of public finance and the minister of energy, with the opinion of the ANRM.

The sums owed by holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore blocks by way of tax on supplementary revenues shall be collected into a special account used for financing the establishment and extension of the natural gas distribution networks and of the connections to the national natural gas transmission system, as well as other investments established by Government decision. The allocation of the sums collected shall be made by Government decision. The collection of the tax on supplementary revenues shall be administered by the National Agency for Fiscal Administration, in accordance with Act no. 207/2015, as subsequently amended and supplemented.

The cumulated value of the investments in the upstream segment, recorded in the accounts in accordance with the legal rules in force, from the entry into force of this law until the month for which the tax on supplementary offshore revenues is calculated, and the value of the investments recorded in the accounts up to the date of entry into force of this law, shall be reduced monthly by the value of the investments in the upstream segment deducted from the tax on supplementary offshore revenues. The deductions shall apply until the cumulated value of the investments in the upstream segment, recorded in the accounts in accordance with the laws in force, is reached.

In the event of the alienation of the investments in respect of which the deduction provided for in paragraphs (3) and (4) was obtained, the deduction granted shall be subtracted from the cumulated value of the investments in the upstream segment in proportion to the ratio between the value of the investments transferred and the value of the investments recorded in the upstream segment in the reference period in which it was granted.

4. 21 September 2019 — “Art. 20 is amended and shall read as follows:”

Art. 20 is amended and shall have the following content:

Art. 20^1. Holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks:

* have the right freely to market the hydrocarbons produced from the offshore petroleum blocks, at the prices and in the quantities determined by them and by the use of any procedures chosen by the holder for selecting purchasers and for concluding contracts with them, whatever the identity or location of the purchaser, in accordance with the EU principles of the free market;

* may not be made subject to restrictions concerning the price, the marketing and/or the sale of hydrocarbons, save for the binding legal provisions of the European Union or those imposed by this law;

* shall be exempted from the provisions of Emergency Ordinance 114/2018 and Emergency Ordinance 19/2019.

By way of derogation from the provisions of the Electricity and Natural Gas Act no. 123/2012, as subsequently amended and supplemented, holders of petroleum agreements relating to offshore petroleum blocks, including their subsidiaries and/or those belonging to the same economic interest grouping, from the date of entry into force of this law until 31 December 2021, in so far as they contract the sale of natural gas on the wholesale market, are obliged to offer, in the calendar year in which they deliver the natural gas, on the centralised markets, transparently, publicly and without discrimination, on the basis of standardised annual, quarterly and monthly products and in accordance with a pre-established timetable in conformity with the rules issued by the National Energy Regulatory Authority (hereinafter ANRE), a quantity of natural gas which may not exceed that represented by a percentage share of 20% of the quantity of natural gas from their own production delivered on the wholesale market, in that calendar year, in the capacity of seller.

5. 21 September 2019 — “Art. 21 is amended and shall read as follows:”

Art. 21 is amended and shall read as follows:

The royalty regime and the specific fiscal regime provided for in art. 18 and art. 19 shall not be modified, in whatever form, in favour of or to the detriment of the holders of the agreements, throughout the duration of those agreements.

The percentage share provided for in art. 20^2 shall remain unchanged throughout the duration of the agreements.

6. 21 September 2019 — “Art. 25, paragraph (1), letter n) is amended and shall read as follows:”

Art. 25, paragraph (1), letter n) is amended and shall read as follows:

failure by the holders of petroleum agreements to observe the provisions of art. 20^2, punishable by a fine of between 100,000 and 10,000,000 lei.

7. 21 September 2019 — “ANNEX no. 2 is amended and shall read as follows:”

ANNEX no. 2 is amended and shall read as follows:

ANNEX no. 2 — Formula for calculating the tax on supplementary offshore revenues

Depending on the level of the weighted average price of the natural gas sold from own domestic production from the offshore blocks, hereinafter PMPC, the following calculation formulae apply:

1. Where PMPC is between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive, adjusted by the CPI, the total tax owed on supplementary offshore revenues is calculated as follows:

IVST — the total tax owed on supplementary offshore revenues;

ISO — the supplementary offshore tax calculated on the supplementary revenues from the sale of natural gas following the charging of PMPC prices between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive, adjusted by the CPI, as the case may be;

CI — the rate of taxation of the supplementary revenues from the sale of natural gas [30% — under art. 19 para. (3) letter (a)], applicable following the charging of PMPC prices between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive, adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2020;

VS — the supplementary revenue from the offshore blocks, calculated from the sale of natural gas at PMPC prices between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive;

PMPC — the weighted average price of the natural gas sold from own domestic production from the offshore blocks;

PB — the minimum base price of the corresponding calculation interval; for PMPC prices between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive it is 100 lei/MWh, adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2020;

VGC — the volumes of gas from domestic production from the offshore blocks sold;

CPI — the annual consumer price index of the preceding year published by the National Institute of Statistics of Romania;

VID — the value of the deductible investments in the upstream segment;

VI — the cumulated value of the investments in the upstream segment as provided for in art. 19 para. (9), which is reduced monthly by the VID value deducted;

2. Where PMPC exceeds 115 lei/MWh, adjusted by the CPI, the total tax owed on supplementary offshore revenues is calculated as follows:

ISO — the sum of the supplementary offshore taxes, calculated for each price interval under art. 19 para. (3) letters (a) to (g), namely:

ISOi is calculated according to the formula in point 2, where the corresponding terms have the following meanings:

CI — the rate of taxation of the supplementary revenues from the sale of natural gas, for each corresponding price interval under art. 19 para. (3) letters (a) to (g);

PB — the minimum base price of the corresponding calculation interval, adjusted annually from 1 January 2020 by the CPI;

VS — the supplementary revenue from the offshore blocks, calculated for each corresponding price interval.

Example of calculation: for the sale of a volume VGC of 1 MWh at a selling price of 120 lei/MWh, the total tax owed on supplementary offshore revenues is calculated by applying the above formulae as follows:

IVST = ISO - VID = 6.25 – 3.75 = 2.5 lei

ISO = CI1 * VS1 + CI2 * VS2 = 0.30×15 + 0.35×5 = 6.25 lei

CI1 = 0.30 — the rate of taxation (30%) of the supplementary offshore revenues from the sale of natural gas applicable following the charging of prices between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive, under art. 19 para. (3) letter a), adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2020;

CI2 = 0.35 — the rate of taxation (35%) of the supplementary offshore revenues from the sale of natural gas applicable following the charging of prices between 115 lei/MWh and 130 lei/MWh inclusive, under art. 19 para. (3) letter b), adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2020;

VS1 = (115 - 100)×1 = 15 lei, the supplementary revenue from the offshore blocks, calculated as the difference between 115 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh, adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2020;

VS2 = (120 - 115)×1 = 5 lei, the supplementary revenue from the offshore blocks, calculated as the difference between PMPC (120 lei/MWh in the given example) and 115 lei/MWh (the minimum base price of the interval), adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2020.

1. Art. 49 paragraph (4) of Act 238/2004 is amended and shall have the following content:

The calculation of the value of the petroleum royalty owed to the State budget by the holders of development-exploitation and exploitation petroleum agreements is made on the basis of the sale and purchase prices, exclusive of the costs of transport, storage and other logistical costs. In so far as the petroleum does not form the object of a sale and purchase transaction in the month of production, the calculation of the value of the petroleum royalty governed by this law is made on the basis of reference prices established by the competent authority, observing the following principles:

for crude oil and condensate, the reference prices shall be based on the price of Brent crude for the reference period in respect of which the holders of concession contracts/petroleum agreements owe the petroleum royalty, taking into account price adjustments for the differences in quality between the grades of crude produced in Romania and Brent crude, and for the costs of transporting the grades of crude produced in Romania from the measuring points for determining gross petroleum production to the nearest market where those grades of crude may be traded; those costs shall be defined by the methodology for calculating the reference price, which shall be established by order issued by the president of the competent authority under this law.

for natural gas, the reference price shall be based on the weighted average price of all the sale and purchase transactions for the sale of natural gas reported to the ANRE by the holders of petroleum agreements for the reference period; from the reported price there shall be deducted the costs of transport, storage and other costs defined in the methodology for calculating the reference price, which shall be established by order issued by the president of the competent authority under this law, as well as value added tax and any other duties, taxes or contributions.

for the quantities of petroleum used for the technological consumption of the holders of petroleum agreements, including the quantities necessary for carrying out activities assimilated to those of exploitation, the reference price shall include a reduction as against the reference price determined for the remaining quantities of petroleum. That reduction factor shall be defined by the methodology for calculating the reference price, which shall be established by order issued by the president of the competent authority under this law.

The reference prices shall be established by order issued by the president of the competent authority and shall be published monthly by the competent authority.”

4. We live in Revolutionary times. Revolutionary without inverted commas, revolutionary in the strict sense of the word, a Revolution which has already given birth to a “New Normality” and to a “new man”.

For if you look in the Dictionary you will find that the first definition of the word “REVOLUTION, revolutions, n. I. 1.” is “A fundamental change in the values, the political institutions, the social structure, the leaders and the ideologies of a society”, and only the second sense is the usual, popular one — as the Romanian dictionary itself considers it — to which we have grown accustomed, namely “2. (Pop.) Uprising, revolt”.

So, in order to summarise and clarify the conceptual scope of the word Revolution, we must come to understand that it is not defined, and does not have as its principal characteristic, either the author or the principal actor of it — such as a particular political grouping or even the people as a whole — and still less the manner in which the actors manifest themselves: violent, bloody or velvet.

The only thing that defines a revolution is the radical change it brings about in society. Nothing else.

Now, what we lived through in 2020 was, beyond any doubt, a Revolution in the true sense of the word, and the times we are living in we may label, without fear of error, as truly Revolutionary.

Never in so short an interval have so many radical changes occurred at global level. Never have the limitations of fundamental rights and freedoms been so radical and so evident — from the limitation of religious freedom and freedom of conscience to the limitation of the right to FREE expression, of freedom of movement, of assembly, of association! And above all the limitation of the right to think! Never until now has the population of the whole world “acquiesced” so quickly and so completely in the coercive measures to which it was subjected.

In a single year — in fact in some 10 months — the world changed dramatically, so that the pre-Revolutionary world now seems utopian, as if taken from a story. But most important of all is that man has changed radically and abruptly, which is an achievement that no earlier Revolution managed so well.

Why? Because the Great Global Revolution has something which the earlier revolutions did not have, namely a single command centre at global level and a weapon of ideological and informational mass extermination of opponents, of counter-revolutionaries: the Mass Media and the Internet!

The above statement concerning the “weapons” of the Great Global Revolution is irrefutably proved by your own experience and interaction with the Mass Media and the “social” networks, in which you have been able to observe not only that the diversity of opinions seems to have disappeared, but also that any opinion contrary to the interests of the Revolution is branded and fought with revolutionary fury and exterminated, publicly executed on the scaffold to the cheers of fanaticised crowds.

As for the single command of the Great Global Revolution, it is transparently assumed by the World Economic Forum, and the Revolution led by this Revolutionary Forum even has a name:

Everything is apparently transparent, in plain sight, the aims and the means of this Revolution being set out without circumlocution on the Forum’s own site (https://www.weforum.org/great-reset/):

“It is urgent that stakeholders at global level cooperate in managing simultaneously the direct consequences of the COVID-19 crisis. To improve the state of the world, the World Economic Forum is launching the Great Reset initiative.

The Covid-19 crisis and the political, economic and social disruptions it has caused are fundamentally changing the traditional context for decision-making. The inconsistencies, inadequacies and contradictions of several systems — from health and finance to energy and education — are more exposed than ever amid a global context of concern for lives, livelihoods and the planet. Leaders find themselves at a historic crossroads, managing short-term pressures against medium- and long-term uncertainties.

As we enter a unique window of opportunity to shape the recovery, this initiative will offer insights to help inform all those who determine the future state of global relations, the direction of national economies, the priorities of societies, the nature of business models and the management of a global commons. Drawing on the vision and the vast expertise of the leaders engaged in the Forum’s communities, the Great Reset initiative has a set of dimensions for building a new social contract that honours the dignity of every human being.”

We are already living in the full “New Normality”!

Say “Farewell” to the normality you knew.

Yes! The world has already changed. And it will change further, that is clear! Which is normal, you will tell me, since that is what has happened “since the world began”…

Yes, only that what distinguishes the Great Global Revolution called “The GREAT RESET” is the speed of the changes and the DIRECTION of the developments to come.

The limitation of rights and freedoms? Censorship? A single state ideology? Control of the population? Anti-traditional and anti-religious hatred? Control of the economy by the multinationals?

Clearly, all these are already known, we are already living them! These were foreseeable and predictable before the outbreak of the revolution; only we did not know how they would proceed to tighten the screw still further.

Now we know. But we do not know — and I do not think we want to know — what is being prepared for us in the second wave of revolution. For the implementation and consolidation of “revolutionary values” always costs far more than the revolution itself. History confirms this every time.

What will happen to all of us? I do not know. Very probably what they want. What will happen to us, the anti-revolutionaries, the reactionaries and the subversives who attack the noble ideals of the Global Revolution? That too I do not know. I expect the worst. And that first of all from the population seized by revolutionary ardour…

Since I do not wish to spoil for you the beginning of this second Revolutionary Year, or year 1 After the Great Reset, I shall urge you to one thing only: DO NOT BE AFRAID!

However few and however weak we may be, it is certain that we are on the right side of the barricade! Perhaps not of history… but,

“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father” (Romans 8:15).

5. THE SOVEREIGNTY ACT — a law which must be adopted urgently: NOW OR NEVER!

Romania has reached a crucial moment in its history, in which the active and direct involvement of the citizen is needed for the defence of his legitimate rights and interests. That is, if we wish still to be a country, a people, tomorrow!

Certainly, neither the progressive and colonialist Government of Romania nor Parliament in its present composition will do anything to defend us from the wave of globalisation and of the new normality.

That is why we, the citizens, must do what our representatives have not done these last 30 years, out of incompetence, out of fear or out of villainy: defend the sovereignty and independence of Romania by forcing the adoption of laws written exclusively in the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian citizen.

For we, “ordinary citizens”, have the right to propose to Parliament the adoption of the laws we need. Did you know that? And not only through “our representatives”, but even directly, immediately!

Yes, the Constitution gives us the right to have legislative initiative, to “force” Parliament to adopt certain laws.

That is why we shall have to begin to make use of the constitutional mechanisms at our disposal and, under article 74 of the Constitution, to use our right of legislative initiative, proposing to the legislature the laws which the citizens of Romania really need.

For this we need at least 100,000 citizens with the right to vote, coming from at least a quarter of the counties of the country.

In reality we shall have to gather several hundreds of thousands, even millions of signatures, in order to force the hand of the present majority to adopt our legislative initiatives.

I bring to your attention and to discussion a first legislative proposal which could and indeed should come from us, from the people: the Sovereignty Act.

The Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen

1. Clear-felling of forest stands on the territory of Romania is prohibited until the year 2040.

2. The alienation of the assets of the Romanian State shall be effected only following the adoption by Parliament, by a qualified majority, of an organic law to that effect.

3. The concession of national resources shall be effected only following the adoption by Parliament, by a qualified majority, of an organic law to that effect for each concessioned area separately.

4. The exploitation of the resources of the Romanian State concessioned up to this date is suspended until the adoption by Parliament, by a qualified majority, of an organic law to that effect for each concessioned area separately.

5. The limitation of the constitutional rights of Romanian citizens provided for by the Constitution may be effected only by the legislature, through an organic law adopted by Parliament by a qualified majority.

6. Articles of law declared unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court are considered repealed by operation of law under this article from the 46th day after the publication of the Constitutional Court’s Decision in the Official Gazette, where the legislature does not bring the legal provision into accord with the Court’s decision.

7. Medical treatments may be administered to Romanian citizens only after obtaining beforehand the agreement and written consent of the patients, following prior and obligatory information given on the basis of the leaflets supplied by the manufacturer of the medicines proposed, medical emergencies excepted.

8. 25 January 2021 — “The involvement of the Romanian secret services in the judiciary, in politics, in the pre…”

The involvement of the secret services of Romania in the judiciary, in politics, in the press and in business on the territory of Romania is prohibited. The unmasking of natural or legal persons who breach this legal provision is exempted from the application of art. … of Act 51/1991. Breach of this legal provision constitutes abuse of office, and failure to report a possible breach of this rule constitutes complicity in abuse of office, as that offence is defined and punished by the provisions of art. 297 of the Criminal Code.

9. 2 February 2021 — On the citizens’ initiative

The acquisition of military equipment from foreign manufacturers which do not provide offset production in Romania of at least 40% of the value of the contract is prohibited.

10. 6 February 2021 — On the revision of the draft

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

Any form of censorship or limitation of the right of Romanian citizens to free expression on social networks and/or in the online environment is prohibited. Breach of this legal rule renders the provider of online services liable to a fine of between €10,000,000 and €50,000,000, according to the gravity of the act.

11. 25 January 2021 — “This law enters into force on the date of its publication in the Official Gazette, any provision…”

This law enters into force on the date of its publication in the Official Gazette, any provision to the contrary being repealed by operation of law from that date.

Of course, the text can and must be discussed and improved, brought to the form and standards required by Act 24/2000.

But I hope it may be a good beginning, a useful basis for a public and constructive debate which will in the end lead (I hope not so distant an end) to the gathering of signatures for submitting this Act to the Parliament of Romania for adoption.

Personally, together with #CoalițiaPentruNațiune and with any other political force interested in the adoption of this law, I shall do everything in my power to defend the legitimate rights and interests of this people.

I await your opinions and, of course, your support!

6. “Romanians can take their fate into their own hands and can make use of a constitutional provision which allows them to draft their own laws, without depending any longer on the mercy of the inertia shown by members of parliament. And such a normative act, which will be called the Sovereignty Act, will have the role of genuinely protecting the Romanian economy. The man who launched the proposal on Monday, 25 January 2021, is the lawyer Dan Chitic (photo), who started from art. 74 paras. 1 and 2 of the fundamental law.

Those passages of the Constitution give citizens the right to draft legislative proposals themselves, and then to send them to Parliament.

We reproduce the constitutional provisions to that effect:

“(1) Legislative initiative belongs, as the case may be, to the Government, to deputies, to senators or to a number of at least 100,000 citizens with the right to vote. Citizens exercising their right of legislative initiative must come from at least a quarter of the counties of the country, and in each of those counties, and in the municipality of Bucharest, at least 5,000 signatures must be registered in support of that initiative.

Fiscal matters, those of an international character, amnesty and pardon may not form the object of the citizens’ legislative initiative”.

Returning to Dan Chitic’s proposal: it concerns first of all the prohibition of deforestation until the year 2040 and the requirement that the alienation of the State’s assets and the concession of resources be effected only by organic laws adopted by a qualified majority. That means two thirds of the votes of all members of parliament, as Chitic explained for Lumea Justiției. Moreover, this qualified majority will also be necessary for the adoption of the organic laws needed to restrict the exercise of certain rights and freedoms, any other course being excluded by the Sovereignty Act. Still in the field of rights and freedoms, Chitic’s law would provide for stinging fines, of up to 50 million euro, for anyone indulging in censorship on the Internet.

The same normative act will prohibit the administration of medical treatments without the written and informed consent of patients, save in medical emergencies.

Another provision will eliminate the possibility of the secret services becoming involved in the judiciary, in politics, in the press and in business on the territory of Romania. In the field of defence, the Sovereignty Act will limit the acquisition of military equipment to foreign manufacturers which provide offset production in Romania of at least 40% of the value of the contract.

Before we present to you the proposal published by Dan Chitic on Facebook, we mention that the lawyer explained for Lumea Justiției that it is not necessary that a single law should result in the end, since it may equally be a package of laws of sovereignty. “In any case: what is important is that these draft laws of sovereignty should be the result of extensive debates with specialists in all the fields concerned”, Chitic emphasised.

We reproduce the lawyer’s entire post: https://www.facebook.com/1645845977/posts/10216808395955981/?d=n”

7. “Romania can regain its dignity, through a law which could make history if it enters into force.

It is the so-called “Sovereignty Act”, proposed by the lawyer Dan Chitic (photo) on Monday, 25 January 2021.

The law, which will have the role of genuinely protecting the Romanian economy, concerns 11 fields. Principally, it is a matter of prohibiting deforestation until the year 2040 and of the requirement that the alienation of the State’s assets and the concession of resources be effected only by organic laws adopted by a qualified majority. We refer to two thirds of the votes of all members of parliament, as Chitic explained for Lumea Banilor.

Moreover, this qualified majority will also be necessary for the adoption of the organic laws needed to restrict the exercise of certain rights and freedoms, any other course being excluded by the Sovereignty Act. Still in the field of rights and freedoms, Chitic’s law would provide for stinging fines, of up to 50 million euro, for anyone indulging in censorship on the Internet.

The same normative act will prohibit the administration of medical treatments without the written and informed consent of patients, save in medical emergencies.

Another provision will eliminate the possibility of the secret services becoming involved in the judiciary, in politics, in the press and in business on the territory of Romania. In the field of defence, the Sovereignty Act will limit the acquisition of military equipment to foreign manufacturers which provide offset production in Romania of at least 40% of the value of the contract.”

8. I told you yesterday that we no longer have a choice, that we no longer have hope, that the system has seized everything!

Yes, the System has seized everything, it has won the match. And not since yesterday or today, but for a very long time.

Today the System, the globalist securitate men, have only the supreme arrogance to show it, to proclaim their victory without reserve. And that, I say, is our chance, for it is an immense mistake on the part of the system’s men, akin to despising an opponent who is on the ropes.

When you no longer have any rational chance, you become lucid in your despair and you realise that you have nothing left to lose. There comes that lucidity I spoke of yesterday, which makes me understand that the way out must be invented, that the walls must be broken down with the fury and the despair of one who has nothing left to lose!

And then you are capable of anything… You overcome your fear, you overcome all your complexes, even the instinct of self-preservation… and you look your adversary in the eye with the doggedness of one on the threshold of death, with the lucidity of the condemned man and, with the strength of the drowning, you throw yourself upon him.

Only then do you realise that behind the beast which wants to destroy you lies the decision of 0.1 per cent of the population, put into effect by another 1% through the fists and truncheons of at most 3%, and that the beast is cheered on from the “stands” by at most 30% of us, the more credulous and more inept, who applaud our crushing as a victory of their own — they themselves the slaves of the 1%.

The beast is in fact a decrepit and perverse dwarf which became a beast in our eyes only because we allowed it, because we entered into its game, because we allowed it to control our minds and our souls in exchange for the illusion of happiness brought by comfort.

If we understand this, we shall succeed in changing the course of history!

The responsibility of our generation is immense, for we are the very last generation that can still stop the decrepit and perverse dwarf from becoming truly an unbeatable beast. In only 10 to 15 years the proportion of the beast’s supporters will exceed 50%… and that through their “education”, or rather through the effective absence of education and their politically correct indoctrination.

We are the last generation still to have the memory of true landmarks, of immutable values, of predecessors who were real men, not machines, not spectres online. The man of tomorrow’s world, a world definitively ruled by the 0.1% through Artificial Intelligence, will be too short-sighted intellectually and too impotent morally still to seek the Truth, still to try to oppose the Abomination of Desolation.

That is why it is our duty to oppose the New Normality and its masters and adherents. At any price!

We must show that we still have the power of number, of force and of the courage given by the awareness that we are on the side of the Truth!

And this force we must exert vigorously where it hurts them most: in the legislative field. We must resume our right to decide for ourselves. For when they no longer give us alternatives, the alternative must be created by us!

That is why the other day I proposed to you a first popular legislative initiative. Not with the pitchfork or the axe, nor with muscles or fists shall we regain our freedom… for in any case we Romanians have never been good at that — and last night’s protest proves it!

Freedom, if we are still to be worthy of it, we shall regain only with the pen and the spirit!

#VreauSăCred — I want to believe — that we shall begin to write our own laws!

9. “A citizens’ initiative launched a few days ago has produced immense interest among Romanians. It is the “Sovereignty Act”, proposed by the lawyer Dan Chitic (photo). A law which will have the role of genuinely protecting the Romanian economy (click here to read).

Nevertheless, for the law to become reality, the initiative must gather 100,000 signatures from Romanians, after which it is to be sent to Parliament for adoption. Until then, the lawyer Dan Chitic has made new additions to the “Sovereignty Act”, following the suggestions received from Romanians.

Among the additions made, and made public by Chitic on Facebook, is that concerning the prohibition of the introduction into the country of waste of any kind (an extremely important provision, given that Romania has become the rubbish dump of Europe), and also that establishing that the undermining of the national economy is punished by up to 25 years’ imprisonment.

We present the announcement of the lawyer Dan Chitic concerning the new form of the “Sovereignty Act”:

“As you know, a week ago I publicly launched the draft of the ‘Sovereignty Act’, the first popular legislative initiative framed under art. 74 para. 1 of the Constitution.

Following your requests, those of the persons interested in this legislative project which can save this nation from disaster, I have added a further 5 articles to our draft law, namely:

11. Any form of commercial advertising on television, radio and on social networks for medicines, vaccines and other pharmaceutical products is prohibited, with the exception of cosmetic and natural products.

13. 2 February 2021 — “The adoption by Emergency Ordinance of any measures in the field of regulation…”

The adoption by Emergency Ordinance of any measures in the field reserved exclusively to organic laws under art. 73 para. 3 of the Constitution is prohibited, as is the amendment or repeal by Emergency Ordinance of any provisions laid down in organic laws.

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

As from the date of adoption of this Act, total or partial failure to observe the conditions and obligations stipulated as incumbent upon the purchaser entails the nullity by operation of law of the privatisation contract. The action for a declaration of nullity may be brought by any Romanian citizen and is exempt from stamp duty.

15. 2 February 2021 — “The act of Undermining the national economy is criminalised and shall read as follows…”

The act of Undermining the national economy is criminalised and shall read as follows: ‘The act of using one of the entities referred to in art. 176 of the Criminal Code, or of impeding its normal activity, if the act is such as to undermine the national economy, shall be punished by imprisonment from 5 to 20 years and the prohibition of certain rights. If the act provided for in the preceding paragraph has caused significant damage to the national economy, the penalty is life imprisonment or imprisonment from 15 to 25 years and the prohibition of certain rights’.

At present, the text proposed for the Sovereignty Act is the following:

‘Draft legislation: the Sovereignty Act, or the Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen

1. Clear-felling of forest stands on the territory of Romania is prohibited until the year 2040.

10. The Sovereignty Act has been revised and supplemented

Following the discussions held with you, the supporters of this popular legislative initiative, I have made the following changes and additions:

In article 1, following your requests, I have changed the date until which the clear-felling of forest stands is prohibited from the year 2040 to the year 2100.

In article 2 I have added the prohibition of listing on the stock exchange the shares held by the Romanian State without the approval of a qualified majority of Parliament, specifying also that this qualified majority means two thirds of the total number of members of parliament. The same clarification as to the meaning of the term qualified majority I have made in article 3 as well.

In article 7, which originally read “Medical treatments may be administered to Romanian citizens only after obtaining beforehand the agreement and written consent of the patients, following prior and obligatory information given on the basis of the leaflets supplied by the manufacturer of the medicines proposed, medical emergencies excepted”, there has also been added the provision that “No citizen may be discriminated against, positively or negatively, as a result of accepting or refusing a medical treatment.”

In article 13 I have added that the engagement of the Government’s responsibility in the field reserved to organic laws is also prohibited, so that the article now reads: “The adoption, by Emergency Ordinance or by the engagement of the Government’s responsibility, of any measures in the field reserved exclusively to organic laws under art. 73 para. 3 of the Constitution is prohibited, as is the amendment or repeal, by Emergency Ordinance or by the engagement of the Government’s responsibility, of any provisions laid down in organic laws.”

Four further articles have been added to the Sovereignty Act, namely:

Article 16. Art. 297 para. 2 of the Criminal Code is amended as follows: “(2) The same penalty shall apply to the act of a public servant who, in the exercise of his official duties, restricts the exercise of a person’s right or creates for that person a situation of inferiority on grounds of race, nationality, ethnic origin, language, religion, sex, sexual orientation, political affiliation, wealth, age, disability, ACCEPTANCE OR REFUSAL OF A MEDICAL TREATMENT, non-contagious chronic illness, or HIV/AIDS infection.”

Article 17. Romania’s gold reserve is held exclusively and in its entirety at the National Bank of Romania. The authorities are obliged, within no more than 180 days from the publication of this Act in the Official Gazette of Romania, to repatriate in its entirety the gold held outside Romania.

Article 18. The marketing on the territory of Romania of any products which are inferior in quality to similar products sold in any other State of the European Union is prohibited. Breach of this legal rule constitutes a misleading commercial practice within the meaning of art. 7 para. 2 of Act 363/2007 of 21 December 2007 and renders the manufacturer and the trader jointly and severally liable to a fine of between €10,000,000 and €50,000,000, according to the gravity of the act.

Article 19. Article 19 of Act no. 202/1998 on the organisation of the Official Gazette of Romania, republished in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 206 of 11 April 2013, as subsequently amended, is amended and shall read as follows: “Art. 19 The Autonomous Authority ‘Monitorul Oficial’ shall produce an electronic product containing the acts published and the legislation as updated and consolidated, which may be accessed permanently and free of charge on the internet.”

With your permission we shall close the discussions concerning the content of the law — a Law which has already become extremely extensive: 20 articles — and in the days to come we shall concentrate exclusively on the form of the Law and on satisfying the requirements of legislative technique.

I too, like many others, should have wished us to be able to make proposals in other fields as well, such as the fiscal one; but the Constitution and the laws in force do not permit us to do so from the position of ordinary citizens. For other amendments and legislative initiatives we should have to reach Parliament! And not just anyhow… but with a comfortable majority too, which at this moment belongs to the realm of utopia.

I thank you for your involvement in the debates concerning this Sovereignty Act, a law which came naturally from the real holder of Romania’s Sovereignty: from you, from the Romanian citizen.

In the days to come we shall have to organise ourselves in order to gather the signatures needed so that this law cannot be ignored by the members of parliament controlled by the system. And no, we shall have to gather not merely 100,000 signatures, as the Constitution requires, but hundreds of thousands or millions of signatures, so that our draft Law becomes Law by the force of popular support and in spite of the obstacles that will be placed in our way by the system and by the securitate men of the old or the new rite.

I leave you below the full text of the Sovereignty Act in its revised and supplemented (but not yet final!) form, as well as a link to the enrolment form for volunteers for the gathering of signatures!

“Draft legislation: the Sovereignty Act, or the Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen

11. My dear friends, I must confess that I no longer understand anything! Please enlighten me.

My posts produce effects I no longer understand.

Some of them — sometimes simple statements or observations, at other times laments from the edge of the depression that assails me in this end of a world — gather thousands of likes and shares.

Other posts, in which I try to come with solutions, with concrete proposals as an answer to the problems arising from the posts mentioned above… are lucky to get a few hundred likes, and that over several days.

Not to mention that in both kinds of post, in the comments, I find people who evidently think alike (for that is why we are virtual friends), but who fall to quarrelling and end by setting off veritable little virtual conflagrations!

Tell me: am I wrong, and if so, where am I wrong? If not, whence comes this spirit of negation and division which grinds down both us and the society in which we live?

Post scriptum: this post is the ideal example of what I said above: 70 likes in 9 minutes, while in the same time the previous post, with the Sovereignty Act… I do not understand!

13. An untreated cold passes in a week, and in 7 days with treatment. So says the popular saying.

On the same model, pandemics too: without a vaccine they pass in 2 years, with a vaccine in 24 months…

The proof? What the officials tell us: that the Covid pandemic will end in 2023! That is, a little more than 24 months from its spread, from its “pandemisation”.

So the idea is this: we must have “60% of the population immunised within a year and the infection maintained at a minimum level. From 60% upwards, above 70% and better, collective immunity begins to become functional.” So say the “specialists” in 2020. But that is exactly what the specialists had found as early as 1920…

Do you happen to know of any vaccine whatever against the Spanish flu virus? I do not…

And that Pandemic of 1918–1920 ended without vaccination… in about 2 years!

In other words the Covid pandemic will come to an end somewhere in the middle of 2022… with or without a vaccine. For the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918 also died out in 2 years! Also after two “humps”… but after 50 million deaths, that is, over 3% of the world’s population at the time!

Our contemporary pandemic has caused in one year “only” 2.2 million victims, that is 0.03% of the world’s population. Probably we shall have as many victims again and shall reach towards 0.05%, let us say 0.06% of the world’s population.

This is not cynicism, but simply pragmatism and social realism! Is it worth sacrificing the rights of the other 99.95% for 0.05% of the population?

What is certain is that a year from now we shall have escaped this scourge! With or without a vaccine!

But it is not at all certain that we shall also escape the dictatorship occasioned by the plandemic!

Let us return to pandemics: “Specialists agree that the end of the pandemic occurred in 1920, when society managed to develop so-called ‘herd immunity’, even though the virus never disappeared entirely.

‘Traces of the same virus have been found in other influenza viruses. The Spanish flu continued to appear, to mutate and to acquire the genetic material of other viruses’, says Dr Benito Almirante, head of the infectious diseases unit at the Vall d’Hebron hospital in Barcelona.

For example, the flu of 2009 had the genetic elements of earlier viruses, so that older people were better protected than the young.

The same happened with the Spanish flu, those over 30 having greater chances of survival. Most probably the situation is due to the fact that the generation over 30 had been through the so-called Russian flu of 1889 and 1890.” So wrote Ziarul Financiar last year — https://www.google.ro/amp/s/m.zf.ro/amp/business-international/cum-s-a…

In this context, is it worth being vaccinated?

To take that decision, inform yourselves from the only official and credible source, the leaflet of the manufacturer of the Comirnaty vaccine, Pfizer, at https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/product-information/comirnaty-e… .

I, as I have told you, shall be vaccinated (possibly) only after December 2023, when the vaccine comes out of clinical trials.

But by then I am sure the plandemic will already have been over… for a year!

But until we decide what to do about the vaccine, we have the duty to defend our rights and our sovereignty!

Post scriptum via Aurelian Popa: “And of those 2 million deaths, 20% belong to the USA, which holds 4% of the total population.

50% of those deaths were ‘reported’ in 4 or 5 countries.

80% of the deaths in the USA are concentrated in 5 or 6 states, the richest ones.

14. Taking note of the unanimity of PNL-USR-PLUS-UDMR-PSD-AUR unleashed in Parliament by PLX 31/2021, namely by the Act approving Emergency Ordinance 192/2020 amending and supplementing Act 55/2020 on certain measures for preventing and combating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic,

I believe it necessary to introduce into the Sovereignty Act a twenty-first article:

“Act 55/2020 on certain measures for preventing and combating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic is repealed.”

Act 55/2020, by which the “state of alert” was regulated, is a law which, taken as a whole, is unconstitutional — for reasons debated at length in the spring of 2020 — since it institutes measures restricting the fundamental rights of the Romanian citizen, for which reason

ACT 55/2020 MUST BE REPEALED IN ITS ENTIRETY!

THE REPEAL OF ACT 55/2020 IS THE ONLY LEGAL PATH TO RECOVERING NORMALITY!

Post scriptum: I recall that article 1 of Emergency Ordinance 192/2020 amending and supplementing “Act no. 55/2020 on certain measures for preventing and combating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, published in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 396 of 15 May 2020, as subsequently amended and supplemented,

is amended and supplemented as follows:

1. In article 13, letter a) is amended and shall read as follows:

the obligation to wear a protective mask in public spaces, commercial spaces, means of public transport and at the workplace;”

Any vote given to PLX 31/2021 is a veritable act of treason!

15. The Sovereignty Act has reached prime-time television

Victor Ciutacu announced that next week we shall discuss this subject in more concrete terms.

I leave you below the latest version of the part concerning the economic measures necessary for regaining national sovereignty.

Next week I hope that the part concerning rights and freedoms will also be closer to its final version.

Draft legislation v. 2: the Sovereignty Act, or the Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen

1. Clear-felling of forest stands on the territory of Romania is prohibited until 1 January 2100.

2.

10. The act of Undermining the national economy is criminalised and shall read as follows: “The act of using one of the legal entities referred to in art. 176 of the Criminal Code, or of impeding its normal activity, if the act is such as to undermine the national economy, shall be punished by imprisonment from 5 to 20 years and the prohibition of certain rights. If the act provided for in the preceding paragraph has caused significant damage to the national economy, the penalty is life imprisonment or imprisonment from 15 to 25 years and the prohibition of certain rights.

Everything now depends on us, on each one of us!

17. 114 years since the beginning of the uprising of 1907.

Then, as now, the majority of Romanians worked in serf-like conditions on properties owned or managed by foreigners — properties which were nothing other than lands that had belonged to their forefathers and ancestors.

Then, hunger and despair forced them to face the liberal government, the army it sent, and death itself, crying out.

Today, 114 years later, again a liberal government — the #GuvernulMorții, the government that kills our brothers and our parents in hospitals, that treats us as serfs and that sells everything, leaving us poor and without hope — forces us to revolt and to cry out:

Today, however, you will not have to go out bare-chested and barefoot, armed only with pitchforks and scythes, before an army with cannon and rifles.

Post scriptum: the irony of history has it that today the monument to the peasants killed in 1907 stands in Buzău exactly in front of the headquarters of the PNL — the heirs, crossed with Marxists, of the murderous Liberals of 1907!

Probably mere cynicism. Or stupidity — both of them slogans and principles of today’s “liberals”!

18. “Until 1 January 2121, the concession of national natural resources shall be approved exclusively by organic Law.

No concession contracts may be approved in which the Royalties due to the Romanian State fall below the average level of the European market.”

19. I am glad to announce that maestro Adrian Toni Neacșu has joined the working group on the #LegeaSuveranității, a group which also includes other illustrious professors and practitioners of the law, and not only of the law.

His contribution will be decisive for the success of our project, I am convinced!

I renew the invitation to join this effort of legislating by way of the popular initiative, addressed to all specialists who still believe in the principles set out in #Articolul1 of the #Constituție:

“(1) Romania is a national, sovereign and independent, unitary and indivisible State.

The form of government of the Romanian State is the republic.

Romania is a State governed by the rule of law, democratic and social, in which human dignity, the rights and freedoms of citizens, the free development of the human personality, justice and political pluralism are supreme values, in the spirit of the democratic traditions of the Romanian people and of the ideals of the Revolution of December 1989, and are guaranteed.

The State is organised according to the principle of the separation and balance of powers — legislative, executive and judicial — within constitutional democracy.

In Romania, observance of the Constitution, of its supremacy and of the laws is obligatory.”

22. 8 March 2021 — On the guarantees of sovereignty

On the Green Romania Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Green Romania Act.

Sorin Roșca Stănescu, on the #LegeaSuveranității

And why not? Is it enough for sovereignty to be provided for in the Constitution? Is it enough for dignitaries to be obliged to swear that they will respect the sovereignty of the Romanian State? Is it enough for us to belong to the most powerful political and military alliance in the world for our sovereignty to be guaranteed? It has proved not to be. Perhaps no one comes to seize our sovereignty by force. Perhaps no one forces us at gunpoint to give up attributes of sovereignty. But what happens if we do it ourselves, as has happened before in history? Perhaps, from this point of view, a special law of sovereignty is needed. But who is to make it?

The lawyer Dan Chitic is sceptical as to the consistency and the strength of the political will which might be shown to that effect at the level of the parties or of Parliament. He believes that the citizens themselves ought to demand it. Using the provisions of article 74 of the Constitution. Under that article, a citizens’ initiative benefiting from the adherence of a minimum of 100,000 persons, adherence expressed under certain conditions, would be the most appropriate course to follow. Is it possible?

I believe that only through the forceful expression of the adherence of a very large number of citizens can a legislative solution of this kind be imposed upon members of parliament from the various parties. I believe that only under a formidable pressure, expressed unequivocally by a far greater number of citizens than that minimum of 100,000 provided for by the Constitution, will the parliamentary groups and the members of parliament themselves be constrained to vote such a law in a proportion of at least two thirds of their total number. Once again I insist: the pressure must be truly formidable.

And here is why. A law of national sovereignty injures the interests of all those who stand to profit, and do profit, from the restriction or even the amputation of the sovereign attributes of the State. For instance, if you stop forest clearances entirely for a period of several years, out of a desire to let the forest stock recover, or if you merely stop the exports of raw timber, you injure the interests of many commercial companies, some of which — such as Schweighofer — have an enormous power over the authorities of the States they come from, or even over the authorities of the Romanian State. And, by implication, their influence is exercised over certain members of parliament as well.

Do you still remember the whole madness generated by the irresponsible environmental permit that was granted for the launching of the cyanide exploitation of the Roșia Montană block? At that time there were quite a number of members of parliament, and even a prime minister in the person of Victor Ponta, who pronounced themselves openly in favour of the exploitation. And, with Ponta’s help, there is currently pending a case against the Romanian State, from which damages of billions of dollars are being claimed. With great difficulty, at the very limit, Parliament then managed to impose its will and even to conduct a wide-ranging inquiry, from which there resulted heads of accusation, placed with all the supporting documentation at the disposal of the Prosecutor General’s Office. Which Prosecutor General’s Office thereafter reacted in no way whatever in defence of the interests of the Romanian State.

Or does anyone still remember the attempt I made, as a senator, proposing a draft law by which the secret services would be forbidden to own commercial companies or NGOs? I was literally trampled underfoot both from left to right and from right to left. A sign that the interests of the secret services are exercised forcefully whenever necessary, even through certain members of parliament.

More recently a terrible battle was fought, again in the Parliament of Romania, over the offshore law. A battle lost by the Romanian State. And, as anyone may observe, the foreign companies which are to exploit for their own benefit the vast deposits of natural gas on the continental shelf of the Black Sea already advertise from morning till night on the national television channels — a lying advertisement, telling us that Romania will thereby become energy-independent. But we are not told how. Since the Romanian State will not receive free of charge, in the form of a share of the product obtained, so much as a single cubic metre of natural gas.

But as for the European waste mafia, with its enormous interests in Romania, which it is gradually turning into a rubbish dump of Europe, what can we say? What can we say other than that such operations cannot be carried out without the complicity of many authorities of the so-called sovereign State, which in their turn delegate part of their tasks to irresponsible members of parliament?

The examples can unfortunately be continued. But I stop here, offering you two links which, if you follow them, will let you learn more about this initiative — an initiative which, in my opinion, grows by the day and brings us the hope that it may awaken enough Romanians, far more than 100,000, for the law of sovereignty ever to come to be voted in the Parliament of Romania. For the time being, it is time for a responsible debate, and it is time for the citizens themselves to propose those fields and those rules which cannot be absent from a normative act capable of protecting not only our identity but also our sovereignty.

Medical treatments may be administered to Romanian citizens only after obtaining beforehand the agreement and written consent of the patients, following prior and obligatory information given on the basis of the leaflets supplied by the manufacturer of the medicines proposed, medical emergencies excepted. No citizen may be discriminated against, positively or negatively, as a result of accepting or refusing a medical treatment.

13. No medicines may be marketed and no medical treatments applied for which the manufacturer does not offer guarantees against adverse effects.

14. The marketing of medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products for which complete clinical trials have not been carried out in accordance with the methodology established by organic Law is prohibited.

15. Art. 297 para. 2 of the Criminal Code is amended as follows: “(2) The same penalty shall apply to the act of a public servant who, in the exercise of his official duties, restricts the exercise of a person’s right or creates for that person a situation of inferiority on grounds of race, nationality, ethnic origin, language, religion, sex, sexual orientation, political affiliation, wealth, age, disability, ACCEPTANCE OR REFUSAL OF A MEDICAL TREATMENT, non-contagious chronic illness, or HIV/AIDS, Covid-19 infection or the like.”

16. Any form of commercial advertising on television, radio and on social networks for medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products is prohibited, with the exception of cosmetic and natural products.”

Of course, if, in breach of the Constitution and of the Oviedo Convention, the Iohannis regime adopts any Law of compulsory vaccination, in whatever form, WE SHALL REPEAL IT EXPRESSLY!

25. 7 April 2021 — “!!!! Communiqué of the High Court / Reaction to the decision of the Constitutional Court. Urgent appeal to Parliament”

!!!! Communiqué of the High Court of Cassation and Justice / Reaction to the decision of the Constitutional Court. Urgent appeal to Parliament

“The High Court of Cassation and Justice takes note of the fact that, in its sitting of 7 April 2021, the Constitutional Court upheld the objection of unconstitutionality and found that the provisions of art. 400 para. (1), art. 405 para. (3) and art. 406 paras. (1) and (2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure are unconstitutional. The constitutional jurisdiction held, in essence, that “it is necessary that the judicial decision be drafted and reasoned, in fact and in law, on the date of its delivery”, thereby invalidating the present legislative solution, which provides for the reasoning of the judicial decision within 30 days of delivery (a period which may be successively extended up to a total of 90 days under the conditions of Act no. 304/2004).

Under the provisions of art. 147 para. (4) of the Constitution of Romania, the decisions of the Constitutional Court are generally binding and have effect only for the future, from the date of their publication in the Official Gazette.

Consequently, from the point of view of the proper conduct of the activity of the supreme court and of all the courts of law — having regard to the large number of criminal cases pending, to the essential social importance of the criminal trial, by which the rule of law is defended and the life, the physical and mental integrity, the liberty and the other rights of citizens, and indeed the functioning of the State governed by the rule of law, are protected; taking into consideration the major negative implications which the prolongation of criminal trials may generate (in conditions of a potential legislative “vacuum”), including as regards the limitation periods of criminal liability — the High Court of Cassation and Justice firmly requests the most rapid possible intervention of the Legislature in order to bring the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure into accord with the provisions of the Constitution.

The speed of the Legislature’s intervention is all the more necessary since, from the moment of the publication of the Constitutional Court’s decision in the Official Gazette, the above-mentioned legal provisions will be suspended by operation of law and, after 45 days, will definitively cease to have legal effect, under the conditions of art. 147 para. (1) of the Constitution of Romania.

From the point of view of the High Court of Cassation and Justice, the new legislative solution to be drawn up must ensure respect for the fundamental rights of all persons involved in judicial proceedings, in accordance with the decision of the Constitutional Court, but at the same time it must be a realistic one and must take into consideration the present situation of the judicial system — in particular the overload and the shortage of resources with which it has long continued to be confronted.

The High Court of Cassation and Justice declares its full readiness to place its expertise at the disposal of the process of debating and drawing up an appropriate legislative solution, one which will allow real and effective progress as regards the defence of citizens’ rights and, in equal measure, the conduct of the criminal trial with speed and quality, with a view to ensuring the proper functioning of justice as a public service.

The President of the High Court of Cassation and Justice, Judge Corina Alina Corbu”

After discussions with hundreds of people and consultations with dozens of specialists in law and with dozens of others involved in the life of the city, I have the joy of bringing to your notice the latest version of the Sovereignty Act — the 10th and probably the last, to which we shall now add only the explanatory memorandum and some minor changes.

27. Sorin Roșca Stănescu on the #LegeaSuveranității

“The recent movement in France, initiated by reservists but also by serving officers and strongly supported by Mrs Marine Le Pen’s party, obliges us not only to reflect but also to hold as serious a debate as possible. Is sovereignism an extremist movement? Entirely? Partly? And if so, from what point onwards?

Is globalism a dangerous tendency for States and for the citizens of those States? And, if so, from what point? I feel obliged to answer this challenge. All the more so since a home-grown sovereignism is taking shape. One which opposes the globalist tendencies, themselves more and more pronounced in Romania.

I admit the theme is extremely difficult. Because we approach it from inside the European Union. After all, what is the European Union? A form of globalism. Even if a partial one. Properly speaking, the European Union is, historically, the latest association of States which, in the name of collective power, have decided to cede — to a greater or lesser degree, but to cede nevertheless — attributes of sovereignty. From this point of view it is the first significant experiment in globalisation at world level, after the successive failures of the Macedonian Empire, of the Roman Empire, of the Third Reich, and of the camp built by Stalin after the Second World War. In fact it is the first time since the republic of the city-states of ancient Greece that States associate of their own free will, forced by no one, in order to create by degrees a larger State, with peoples of the most varied origin, tradition, cultural and civilisational level, economic level, and with different religions too. And in certain cases even hostile to one another. Well, the question must be put, and we are obliged to answer it: to what extent, in order to build and consolidate this European construction, are the States prepared to renounce their sovereignty? And, from that point of view, let us see to what extent sovereignism may be taxed with extremism.

Bearing in mind the particularities of the European Union, we may assert, without risk of error, that many of the features attributed in other States to the concept of patriotism are, in the European Union, often perceived and treated as extremism. Because, from a certain point onwards, patriotism inevitably turns into sovereignism. And, likewise from a certain point onwards, sovereignism brakes globalism, which lies at the basis of the formation of the European Union. That is why, by no means accidentally, we have seen, heard and read in recent years accusations ever more frequently launched against European personalities, movements and parties, to the effect that they are, or have, extremist tendencies.

There exists an extremely fragile balance between European globalism and European sovereignism. Partial globalism — if such a thing may be said — bounded by the frontiers of the European Union, is indispensable to the functioning and then to the osmosis of this conglomerate of States. Sovereignism in its turn, which is an expression of patriotism, of healthy nationalism — both of them high moral values — is perfectly justified and absolutely necessary, if it manifests itself within certain limits. What are the limits? In a generic sense, they are circumscribed by the idea that, in collaboration with the other European States, each should manifest the will, and have the capacity and the possibility, to affirm and give effect to its national interest. More bluntly: in the name of the collective interest, in the name of EU values so often invoked, it is inadmissible that, in ceding sovereignty, a people should cede its national riches in favour of another people or of other peoples dominant within this association of States. And national wealth is extremely diverse. It means, in Romania’s case, deposits of precious metals, deposits of hydrocarbons, deposits of salt, forests, arable land, labour force, a market, culture, language, a specific art, and so forth. This globalised mini-planet called the European Union could be all the richer the more each individual State can affirm those values of its own, and could be all the poorer the more some of those States sacrifice on the altar of globalisation more sovereignty than is necessary.

From the perspective sketched above, I perceive with sorrow and with stupefaction how a series of expressions or words with a great emotional charge are ever more intensely mutilated, perverted and condemned. Thus nationalism in the European Union is ever more often taxed with extremism. Or even with neo-fascism. Patriotism is identified by the neo-Marxists with the far right. Parties which support sovereignism suffer ever more visibly attempts to eliminate them, by outlawing them and excluding them from the democratic game.

I try to be as precise as possible, although the space of this editorial does not allow me to treat this vast theme with the precision of a surgeon. I shall therefore offer the reader an abrupt explanation. The most radical party in Romania’s recent history, the Greater Romania Party, led by Corneliu Vadim Tudor, had extremist tendencies and accents, but it was not an extremist party. It was a nationalist party which, unfortunately, sometimes — especially in relation to Hungarians, to Roma and, in the early period, to Jews — displayed racist tendencies. Nevertheless, broadly speaking, the Greater Romania Party kept within the limits imposed by the democratic game.

The weak States of the European Union — those which came more recently and are still marked by the long period in which they could not practise democracy but only dictatorship — are often on the way to being perceived by the powerful EU States, with their consolidated economies, as prey. As territories and populations just right for conquest by a peaceful offensive, but one no less perverse than a military offensive. That is why, by no means accidentally, in these States — and I hasten to give two examples, Poland and Hungary — sovereignist tendencies manifest themselves ever more markedly. For their peoples, these tendencies are beneficial. For the dominant nations at EU level, these tendencies are maleficent. And that is why they are combated. And that is why, in this crucible of the European Union, there is not only unity in diversity but also battles, sometimes merciless, between the integrating tendencies and the sovereignist values, perceived by some as disintegrating.

The theme is highly topical for Romania. For I observe how, day by day, out of several parties and organisations of civil society, a great movement and perhaps a great political formation of the sovereignist type is beginning to agglutinate. The signal is given by a legislative initiative entitled the Sovereignty Act which, after being submitted to public debate, will be signed by citizens and placed, in accordance with the Constitution, as an initiative belonging to them, on Parliament’s table. It will be a good occasion for the globalists to bring accusations of extremist nationalism against this movement, and for its adherents to accuse the neo-Marxists who presently dominate Romanian politics of a form of globalism which sacrifices, or even crucifies, the national interest. In so far as both sides keep within the limits imposed by dialogue, by a confrontation of ideas and tendencies, this new ideological front will prove constructive in the medium and long term.”

28. Iohannis’s traitorous governor is selling off for nothing the country’s resources and the assets of the national companies. Right now!

We have the duty to stop them before it is too late! We owe it to our children, to our children’s children!

Here is what the Sovereignty Act provides; here is how the Law can stop them:

CHAPTER II — Measures in the economic field for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen

5. From the date of entry into force of this law, the alienation of the assets of the Romanian State, or of the shares held by the State in national companies and undertakings, in credit institutions, and in any other company in which the State is a shareholder, whatever the share of the registered capital held, is prohibited until 1 January 2121.

6. From the date of entry into force of this law, the concession of goods forming the public property of the State shall be approved by Parliament.

7. In art. 307 of the Administrative Code of 03.07.2019, after para. (1) a new paragraph is added, para. (1¹), reading as follows: “The minimum royalty obtained through concession may not fall below the average level of the European market.”

8. Romania’s gold reserve is held exclusively and in its entirety at the National Bank of Romania. Within no more than 180 days from the publication of this Act in the Official Gazette of Romania, the National Bank of Romania shall repatriate in its entirety the gold held outside Romania.

9. From the date of entry into force of this law, contracts concluded by the Romanian State are public and shall be published on the website of the contracting institution and in the Official Gazette, Part IV. Within no more than 5 days from the date of adoption of this law, all contracts concluded by the Romanian State up to that date shall be published on the website of the contracting institution and in the Official Gazette, Part IV.

10. The intentional failure of a public servant to enforce concession or privatisation contracts in accordance with their clauses, or, as the case may be, to bring actions for their enforcement, is punished by imprisonment from 10 to 20 years and the prohibition of certain rights. The negligent failure of a public servant to enforce concession or privatisation contracts in accordance with their clauses, or, as the case may be, to bring actions for their enforcement, is punished by imprisonment from 5 to 10 years and the prohibition of certain rights.

11. After paragraph 1 of art. 394 of the Criminal Code a new paragraph is inserted, paragraph 2, reading as follows: “If the act provided for in paragraph 1 letter b has caused significant damage to the national economy, the penalty is life imprisonment or imprisonment from 15 to 25 years and the prohibition of certain rights.”

29. On Medical Apartheid, version 2.0

I have nothing against “rewarding” the vaccinated. And that although it is a practice which contradicts and annuls the informed consent of the person about to be vaccinated… for what informed consent can there still be where “consent” is abolished by greed, by the desire to obtain something. Moreover, the “incentive” to be vaccinated cannot be equivalent to objective information, since evidently the “incentive” affects one’s judgment: it is a form of bribe to make you get vaccinated.

But all these considerations hold only where the “rewarding of the vaccinated” consists in private parties (and not the State, out of public money) offering sweets, free trips to the Moon, anything at all… or even the organisation of a lottery of the vaccinated, as was organised by the enlightened President Biden of the great friendly and non-neighbouring people across the pond — for, on the other hand, what could be more ironic and at the same time more cynical than to organise a lottery for those who have already voluntarily entered the lottery of vaccination: you do not know whether you escape the disease, you do not know whether you will have adverse effects, but perhaps you have a chance of becoming the richest of the vaccinated… or of the cemetery.

In short, any “rewarding” we can understand and even accept, so long as we know the desperation of officials to fulfil the plan of jabs imposed by Big Pharma… but not by “offering” rights which already belong to the jabbed and the unjabbed alike, rights which no one and nothing could take away in order to “give back” only to the well-behaved, only to the obedient.

In other words, no one — neither the State nor private parties — may make the exercise of fundamental civic rights conditional upon the administration of a medical treatment! That is not a “reward”: it is simply discrimination directed against those who have not been vaccinated — let that be clear!

Let us now take a clear example of discrimination: the “Dinner with fools” to which only the vaccinated were invited by the progressive director of the National Theatre in the capital, Caramitru.

Why is it discrimination? Because access to a public institution, financed from the budget by the vaccinated and the unvaccinated alike, is made conditional upon the administration of a medical treatment. That is discrimination. Had Ion Caramitru paid out of his generous income obtained from the State for tickets and offered them only to the vaccinated — that would not have been discrimination. That would have been a “reward”, and even that would have been at the limit of the law… but very well, it would have been a reward. The moment, however, that you, the director of a public institution financed on a pharaonic scale from the State budget, forbid access to a performance in the NATIONAL Theatre to the 80% of the NATION who have not been vaccinated… THAT IS DISCRIMINATION. And he will have to pay for it! And he will pay for it.

Graver still is when the governor himself limits fundamental rights for the 80% unvaccinated, “rewarding” the 20% with rights… which they already had and which had been taken from them by the very people who “reward” them.

This discrimination against the majority is a veritable medical apartheid, an illegal and abusive segregation founded on medical grounds. A segregation, a medical apartheid, which will become institutionalised through the appearance of the “vaccination certificate” — the “passport” of the politically correct obedient!

That is what tomorrow’s protest, on 15 May 2021, will be about, and I call on you to take part in it, young and old, in every town and hamlet of this country!

The prohibition of such practices is also the subject of the #LegeaSuveranității, which I invite you to support by enrolling as a volunteer in the #ArmataSuveranității at http://VremSuveranitate.ro/ .

For do not forget: no one gives you anything unless you ask loudly and firmly!

No one opens the gate of freedom to you unless you knock at it insistently!

The drop of freedom we have obtained, we obtained with effort, with struggle…

30. The time has come for the #LegeaSuveranității!

The time has come to begin the procedure laid down by Act 189/1999 on the exercise of legislative initiative by citizens.

The first step is to set up an Initiative Committee which will take upon itself the promotion of the legislative project.

I invite you to join this Committee!

On 24.05.2021 at 12.00 we shall meet in Cișmigiu Park, from where we shall go to the notary’s office to sign this document.

I invite those who wish to join this Initiative Committee to send a photograph of their identity card to the e-mail of the Notarial Office: andrei.anghel.spn@gmail.com .

In the e-mail, please state in the subject line “FOR THE SOVEREIGNTY ACT” and mention whom you propose as president of the Initiative Committee.

We particularly need the presence of supporters from outside Bucharest, whom we thank in advance for the effort of travelling to the south of the country, to the heart of Bucharest.

Please send your identity card ONLY if you are certain that you will be able to be present on Monday, 24 May 2021, at 12.00 in Cișmigiu Park, at the entrance in front of the Bucharest City Hall.

We leave you below the text of the law which lays down the manner of constituting the Initiative Committee, and a link to the full text of the law:

The promotion of the citizens’ legislative initiative shall be ensured by an initiative committee made up of at least 10 citizens with the right to vote.

Persons elected to office by universal suffrage, members of the Government, persons appointed to office by the prime minister, or persons who may not, under the law, belong to political parties, may not be part of the initiative committee.

The constitution of the initiative committee shall be effected by a declaration authenticated before a public notary, containing the purpose of the initiative, the surnames, forenames, status as electors and domiciles of the members, as well as the declaration that they do not infringe the provisions of para. (2). Liability for the content of the declaration is that provided by law for official documents.

The initiative committee represents the citizens who support the legislative proposal, after they have signed the lists of supporters provided for in this law. The composition of the initiative committee shall be brought to public notice, together with the legislative proposal forming the object of the initiative, by publication in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I. Publication is exempt from any charge.

The initiative committee shall ensure the registration of the legislative proposal with the competent Chamber of Parliament, within no more than 6 months from the date of its publication. After the expiry of that period, the legislative proposal may be presented only as a new legislative initiative, under the conditions of this law.

The initiative committee shall designate from among its members, by a majority of votes, a president to resolve operational matters and to represent the committee in its relations with the central and local public authorities.”

31. We are approaching the moment of regaining Sovereignty!

The #LegeaSuveranității also has an “Explanatory memorandum”. Here it is:

“Starting from the constitutional principle that national Sovereignty belongs to the Romanian people, and also from the need for increased involvement of the Romanian citizen in the decision-making and legislative process through the implementation of the principle of participatory democracy by the exercise of the right of legislative initiative by at least 100,000 citizens with the right to vote, in observance of art. 74 para. 1 of the Constitution,

Having regard to the need to guarantee and strengthen the fundamental rights of the citizen by instituting rules which make impossible the limitation, delay or avoidance of parliamentary scrutiny of normative acts providing for limitations, restrictions or conditions upon fundamental rights and freedoms, and to the need to repeal the legal provisions in force which make such unconstitutional limitations possible,

Taking into account the imperative character of the Oviedo and Nuremberg Conventions, international conventions to which Romania is a party, and the need for the direct and immediate implementation of those conventions in national legislation, with the effect of explicitly and indiscriminately prohibiting the compulsory administration of any medical treatments and/or devices, and of prohibiting any form of discrimination as a result of accepting or refusing any medical treatments or devices,

Having regard to the fact that the protection of human dignity is founded on the idea that man is an intellectual and moral being inclined to determine himself and to develop in freedom, and also that the inalienable dignity of man consists precisely in the necessity that his status as a responsible person be respected,

Taking into consideration the need to strengthen the rule of law through the observance of legality and constitutionality by the direct, non-discriminatory and immediate implementation of the decisions of the Constitutional Court,

Having regard to the need to render transparent the decision-making process of the administration by publishing all acts of general interest and making them fully and freely available through the Official Gazette of Romania, to the need to guarantee freedom of expression in the online environment, and to the need for parliamentary representation of as large a proportion as possible of Romanian citizens with the right to vote,

Taking into consideration the disastrous ecological situation at national level, and the drastic diminution of the national forest stock caused by the massive and irrational deforestation and clear-felling of the last 30 years, and the need to prohibit the abusive and excessive exploitation of forests with a view to the reconstruction and regeneration of the national forest stock, and the need for the immediate and total prohibition of the export of unprocessed timber and of the import of waste,

Taking into account the obligation to preserve the national patrimony and the need to maximise the profitability of the exploitation of the riches held in public ownership for the benefit of the Romanian citizen, with the consequence of criminalising any acts having the effect of diminishing the national wealth,

Having regard to the low degree of transparency of the decision-making process within public institutions in Romania, and to the imperative necessity of prohibiting any kind of interference by the intelligence, counter-intelligence and assimilated services in public life outside their sector of activity,

Taking into consideration the need for the defence of the entire national territory by the entire people on a voluntary basis, and the need to acquire new, latest-generation military equipment directly from the manufacturer and exclusively in observance of the national legislation governing Offset in the field of military procurement,

Taking into account the decisions of the Constitutional Court on the constitutionality of certain provisions in criminal and criminal-procedural matters, and in other social fields as well,

We hope in this way that the more than 100,000 signatures in favour of our initiative will constitute a viable argument for reconsidering the will of the Romanian people and its sovereignty.

The Parliament of Romania, following the popular legislative initiative, adopts this law:” (there follows the text of the Sovereignty Act).

On Monday, 24.05.2021 at 12.00, we meet in Cișmigiu Park (the entrance in front of the Bucharest City Hall) to join the Initiative Committee and thus become initiators of the Sovereignty Act.

32. The bottling factory of Medical Apartheid: Romapartheid Group

You know that I am a fierce defender of Romanian economic interests and a consistent promoter of the principle that Romanian entrepreneurs and commercial companies should take precedence over foreign ones.

And above all not through the acceptance of abuses and discriminations coming from Romanian employers!

Yesterday I received from a virtual friend a disturbing piece of information:

The Romaqua company is discriminating against its employees on grounds of an “anti-vaccination attitude” and is blackmailing them with the prospect of losing their jobs if they do not agree to be vaccinated; in an e-mail received by the employees they are told:

“In the event of restructuring, the unvaccinated have priority”!!!

As for the unvaccinated, Romaqua has established a veritable presumption of illness in their regard, obliging them to present every Monday a PCR test (paid for out of their own funds, of course) on entering the premises. To the porter!

I leave below the photographs received from the Romaqua employee, whose identity I shall obviously not disclose.

I remind those in Romaqua’s management, and all employees in Romania subjected to the same kind of blackmail, that the Patients’ Rights Act 51/2003 expressly provides in articles 21 and 22 that:

All information concerning the patient’s condition, the results of the investigations, the diagnosis, the prognosis, the treatment and the personal data are confidential, even after his death.

Information of a confidential character may be furnished only where the patient gives his explicit consent or where the law expressly requires it.”

So neither the porter, nor the boss, nor the director, nor even the owner may require you, the employees, to present test records or results of any kind.

It is your right to keep the confidentiality of your medical investigations.

Evidently, these dictatorial excesses and veritable discriminations, worthy of a fascistoid regime of Medical Apartheid, can be sanctioned in civil and even in criminal law.

Of course, the employees who are “restructured” will be able to win before the labour courts.

That is why the sanction must be prompt and clear on the part of consumers, who can immediately “fine” the abuses of those at Romaqua.

I for one shall no longer buy any product of Romaqua Group Borsec, although I am a fan of Borsec water. I say it with regret.

And I shall not buy any Romaqua product until the company publicly renounces the blackmail and the discrimination of its employees on medical grounds.

And because such acts must be severely punished, I have proposed through the #LegeaSuveranității the criminalisation of any abuse of office, of any discrimination based on medical grounds:

“ “(2) The same penalty shall apply to the act of a public servant who, in the exercise of his official duties, restricts the exercise of a person’s right or creates for that person a situation of inferiority on grounds of race, nationality, ethnic origin, language, religion, sex, sexual orientation, political affiliation, wealth, age, disability,

acceptance or refusal of a medical treatment or device,

non-contagious chronic illness, or HIV/AIDS, Covid-19 infection or the like.”

So I urge you to enrol in the #ArmataSuveranității at http://VremSuveranitate and to

Not buy Romaqua Group Borsec products until they officially and publicly renounce the policy of discrimination on medical grounds:

Post scriptum: “no employee may be made subject by the employer to a condition of being vaccinated against COVID-19; vaccination is a preventive medical act based on the person’s consent; the imposition of vaccination against COVID by the employer we consider to be outside the legal framework”, answered the Ministry of Health to the question put to it by the Ombudsman!

I attach below the official reply of the Ministry of Health, a reply which I invite you to print and to submit to employers who blackmail and abuse you!

Record the conversations held with them on the subject of compulsory vaccination!

(On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see page 000; the explanatory memorandum — see page 000.)

33. Today, 24 May 2021, we took one more step towards regaining our dignity

Today the Initiative Committee for the #LegeaSuveranității was constituted!

Dozens of people, from many towns of the country — from Timișoara, Cluj, Brașov, Piatra Neamț, Galați, Tulcea, Constanța, Craiova and Ploiești, and from many others — signed before the Public Notary the official birth certificate of the Sovereignty Act.

I thank them all very much for their effort, for the trust and the Hope they have invested in this draft law.

Alongside them there also signed Iulian Capsali, Aurelian Popa and Bogdan Alexandru Duca, who was also the first to recount this event which I hope will truly become historic.

I thank them too in particular, but above all Mr Ilie Șerbănescu and Mr Sorin Roșca Stănescu, who gave weight to our undertaking.

All of us, as members of the Initiative Committee, have empowered the more than 800 volunteers to gather signatures for this popular legislative initiative.

The next step is the submission of the draft law to the Legislative Council and its publication in the Official Gazette. Then the gathering of signatures will begin.

Not least, I thank those many specialists who worked directly and effectively on this draft law and who chose to remain anonymous.

#LuptaAcumÎncepe — the struggle now begins — for the regaining of our sovereignty!

I invite you by this means too to enrol in the #ArmataSuveranității at http://VremSuveranitate.ro !

34. 5 June 2021 — “Luju.ro has produced an excellent synthesis and presentation of #LegeaSuveranității”

Luju.ro has produced an excellent synthesis and presentation of the #LegeaSuveranității

“Anyone who compels Romanians to be vaccinated, by discriminating against those who refuse to be injected, could be liable to imprisonment from 2 to 7 years, like any other person found guilty of abuse of office under article 297 of the Criminal Code. This provision is contained in the draft Sovereignty Act, which the lawyer Dan Chitic (photo 1) submitted to the Legislative Council on Friday, 4 June 2021. The above limits of the penalty are increased by one third if the public servant has obtained for himself or for another an undue benefit, under art. 13/2 of Act no. 78/2000 on the prevention, detection and punishment of acts of corruption.

Lumea Justiției has written repeatedly about the legislative initiative, but this time we present the form which will enter Parliament once maestro Chitic has gathered the at least 100,000 signatures required by the Constitution (art. 74 para. 1):

“Legislative initiative belongs, as the case may be, to the Government, to deputies, to senators or to a number of at least 100,000 citizens with the right to vote. Citizens exercising their right of legislative initiative must come from at least a quarter of the counties of the country, and in each of those counties, and in the municipality of Bucharest, at least 5,000 signatures must be registered in support of that initiative”.

Moreover: the Sovereignty Act repeals in its entirety Act no. 55/2020 (on certain measures for preventing and combating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic), which allowed the authorities to indulge in the well-known abuses of the past year.

Besides the prohibition of discrimination according to vaccination or non-vaccination, the law removes the secret services not only from criminal files (with the exception of those concerning terrorism and espionage) but also from the press, from NGOs and from the business world, the normative act forbidding the intelligence services to hold, directly or through intermediaries, companies and non-governmental organisations, or to operate within mass-media institutions. Another secret service concerned is the Special Telecommunications Service (STS), which the legislative project removes from the procedure for organising and conducting elections.

Still in the criminal field, we mention that the President of Romania will be liable to be accused of high treason if he refuses to apply the decisions of the Constitutional Court of Romania in the matter of resolving legal conflicts of a constitutional nature. We mention that art. 398 of the Criminal Code punishes high treason with imprisonment from 15 to 25 years.

An end to endless confinement in psychiatric institutions

Before we turn to the economic part of the law, we highlight the fact that it introduces real protection for Romanians abusively committed. As Lumea Justiției explained in detail in the article concerning the case of Câți Barzecu of Constanța (click here to read), the present Code of Criminal Procedure offers no effective guarantees in this respect, which is why any Romanian upon whom a prosecutor has fixed his eye (or who, generally, has become inconvenient for the regime) can very easily be committed by force to an asylum and forgotten there.

That is why the Sovereignty Act makes forced confinement in psychiatric institutions subject to judicial review, as in the case of judicial supervision or of other preventive measures.

Protecting Romania’s economic sovereignty

Equally important are the passages in which the Sovereignty Act deals with the protection of Romania’s economic interests. First, the draft normative act prohibits privatisations and deforestation until 1 January 2121. Second, it obliges the National Bank of Romania to repatriate the country’s gold reserve, currently in London.

At the same time, the legislative initiative requires that the royalties for the exploitation of natural resources be fixed at a level which may not be lower than the average of the European market.

We mention that the lawyer Dan Chitic has for the moment declined to disclose all the persons who contributed to the writing of the draft, but there has already been a public acknowledgment to that effect on the part of the lawyer Adrian Toni Neacșu (photo 2).

We also state that anyone wishing to gather signatures for the legislative initiative may enrol as a volunteer by going to the site Vremsuveranitate.ro.

As we said, here are the explanatory memorandum and the text of the draft (see facsimile and video):

“Draft legislation: ‘The Sovereignty Act — the Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen’

I am receiving signals from the volunteers of the #ArmataSuveranității that some fellow citizens are reluctant to sign for the #LegeaSuveranității on the ground that this Law would be the equivalent of a “small revolution”… and that they are afraid to take part in such a thing!

It is not a “small revolution”… it is a Revolution! A real one. It is a true War of independence.

Our heroism, the only sacrifice we have to make… is to put a signature on a sheet of paper.

Today I found that I am the subject of a new form of censorship: my posts cannot be “shared”: on a post with over 1,700 “likes”… only 16 “shares”.

In the comments my friends noticed the problem.

Might it be because the #LegeaSuveranității must be braked?

Or perhaps because the Truth about the plandemic is inconvenient?

I already knew that my posts are “hidden” from your sight. But now I find that even those who see them cannot share them.

What is certain is that the “velvet fist” of censorship is working.

Therefore I ask you, where you cannot share my posts, to resort to the “copy/paste” method!

What matters is that the message should reach as many as possible!

As you know, the #LegeaSuveranității has been returned by the Legislative Council on grounds of failure to observe certain formal requirements.

And that because we have the opportunity to add several further essential provisions, some inspired by our Hungarian neighbours.

Here is the text of a new article amending Act 272 of 21 June 2004 (republished) on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child:

“Act 272 of 21 June 2004 (republished) on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

Following your suggestions, I have amended the text of point 1, making it clearer and even stricter than the Hungarian law:

1. After para. 1 of art. 9 of Act 272 of 21 June 2004, paragraph 1¹ is added, reading as follows: “The physical sexual identity of the child acquired at birth may not be changed before the age of 18.”

2. Article 46 paragraph 3 letter i of Act 272 of 21 June 2004 is amended and shall read as follows: “i) the systematic conduct in schools, at least once per semester, of programmes of education for life, including sexual education for children over 14, with a view to preventing the contraction of sexually transmitted diseases and the pregnancy of minors;”

3. In article 46 paragraph 3 of Act 272 of 21 June 2004 there is added letter k), reading as follows: “k) the prohibition of making available to children under the age of eighteen pornographic content and content which depicts sexuality or promotes departure from gender identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality.”

43. 2 July 2021 — “What if the “Great Reset” is about “BioDigital Convergence” (BioNTech)?”

What if the “Great Reset” is about “BioDigital Convergence” (BioNTech)?

Today I shall bring to your attention a subject which I believe ought to enter everyone’s attention at once and become immediately the principal subject of debate in society. Not only in Romanian society, but in human society as a whole.

It is the subject which can elucidate the “Why?” of the global madness of the past year and a half.

It is perhaps the “missing link” between all the absolute novelties which have come upon us in the recent period: the pandemic, vaccination, the rapid roll-out of 5G, the new normality… the Great Reset.

I know, however, that in launching this subject of discussion, both I and those who will discuss it are taking major risks, the first of which is being discredited and made ridiculous through accusations ranging from conspiracy theory to madness. The gravity and importance of the subject nevertheless demand that any risk be assumed, for what is at stake is the human being itself. Thus, after long discussions with my friend Radu Golban, who also supplied me with a great part of the documents, I have decided to set aside all minimal prudence and to bring this subject to your attention.

All the documents which I shall place at your disposal, and which I ask you to read with the greatest attention, are either official documents or studies of prestigious institutions and universities. I ask by this means my friends Vasile Astărăstoae, Răzvan Constantinescu, Adrian Severin, Gheorghe Iancu, Teodoru Ghiondea, Radu Iliescu, but above all the members of the Romanian Academy and the fathers and brethren of the Holy Synod, to go through the materials below and to understand! And let the most courageous also express their informed opinions.

Here is how “BioDigital Convergence” is presented on an official site of the Canadian government (https://horizons.gc.ca/en/2020/02/11/exploring-biodigital-convergence/…

“In the coming years, biodigital technologies could be woven into our lives as digital technologies are now. Biological and digital systems are converging and could change the way we work, live and even evolve as a species. More than a technological change, this biodigital convergence may transform the way we understand ourselves and cause us to redefine what we consider human or natural.

Biodigital convergence may have a profound impact on our economy, our ecosystems and our society. Being prepared to support it, while managing the risks with care and sensitivity, will shape the way we navigate social and ethical considerations and will guide the conversations on policy and governance.”

BioDigital Convergence has, however, been spoken of openly for a very long time. Spoken of openly, but in closed circles. The most extensive study now made public dates from 2002 and can be found in President Obama’s White House archive (https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/sites/default/files/microsites/os… and speaks of “Converging Technologies”, which it defines as the synergistic combination of four major “NBIC” (nano-bio-info-cogno) provinces of science and technology, each of which is currently progressing at a rapid rate: (a) nanoscience and nanotechnology; (b) biotechnology and biomedicine, including genetic engineering; (c) information technology, including advanced computing and communications; (d) cognitive science, including cognitive neuroscience.

As early as 2002 the White House was speaking of “The Potential for Gene Therapy as a Validation / Delivery Platform”… does that sound familiar? It spoke of “Deep learning” (the knowledge taught will be based on concepts offered by the nano, bio, information and cognitive sciences, and those concepts will be introduced early in the K-12 teaching process. High-quality science education will be made available to the majority of students), and indeed of the fact that “Visual communication could complement verbal communication, sometimes replacing spoken language when speed is a priority or enhancing speech when needed to exploit maximum mental capabilities (Horn 2002; Hewlett Packard 2002).”

All the materials below place us before an evident fact: the Great Reset has already taken place. In 2020. And the year 2021 is the first year of the new normality, the first year of the implementation of the technologies of “BioDigital Convergence”.

That is why immediate and concerted action is necessary.

That is why it becomes necessary to introduce a new category of rights: “Neuronal rights” — the right to have your thoughts under your exclusive control — rights which we shall have to include in the new form of the #LegeaSuveranității.

I know, it sounds like madness. Until you read the official materials below.

After you have gone through them you will discover that we live in a reality beyond any dystopia ever imagined.

To convince you, I shall begin today to give you quotations from the materials which you yourselves will be able to study.

I begin with the introductory part of the Document entitled “Converging Technologies for Improving Human Performance: NANOTECHNOLOGY, BIOTECHNOLOGY, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND COGNITIVE SCIENCE”, the 480-page document I spoke of from President Obama’s archive — an introductory part which tells us, in summary, that this BioDigital Convergence is “the Solution to all humanity’s problems”.

Translator’s note: the passage which follows is rendered from the author’s Romanian version; the original English document is at the link given above.

In the early decades of the 21st century, concentrated efforts can unify science based on the unity of nature, thereby advancing the combination of nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and new technologies based on cognitive science. With proper attention to ethical issues and societal needs, converging technologies could achieve a tremendous improvement in human abilities, societal outcomes, the productivity of the nation and the quality of life. This is a broad, cross-cutting, emerging and timely opportunity, of interest to individuals, to society and to humanity in the long term.

The expression “converging technologies” refers to the synergistic combination of four major “NBIC” (nano-bio-info-cogno) provinces of science and technology, each of which is currently progressing at a rapid rate: (a) nanoscience and nanotechnology; (b) biotechnology and biomedicine, including genetic engineering; (c) information technology, including advanced computing and communications; (d) cognitive science, including cognitive neuroscience.

A timely and broad opportunity. The convergence of diverse technologies is based on material unity at the nanoscale and on technological integration from that scale. The basic building blocks of matter which are fundamental to all the sciences originate at the nanoscale. Revolutionary advances at the interfaces between previously separate fields of science and technology are ready to create key transformative tools for the NBIC technologies. Developments in systems approaches, mathematics and computation, together with NBIC, allow us for the first time to understand the natural world, human society and scientific research as closely linked complex hierarchical systems. At this moment in the evolution of technical achievement, it becomes possible to improve human performance through the integration of technologies.

Examples of rewards may include improved efficiency of work and learning, enhanced individual sensory and cognitive capacities, revolutionary changes in health care, improved creativity both individual and collective, highly efficient communication techniques including brain-to-brain interaction, perfected human-machine interfaces including neuromorphic engineering, sustainable and “intelligent” environments including neuro-ergonomics, enhanced human capabilities for defence purposes, the achievement of sustainable development using NBIC tools, and the amelioration of the physical and cognitive decline common to the ageing mind.

The participants in the workshop foresee important discoveries in the fields related to NBIC in the next 10 to 20 years. Fundamental research requires approximately the same interval to produce significant applications. Now is the moment to anticipate the research problems and to plan a research and development approach which will give optimal results.

This report addresses key questions: what are the implications of the unification of the sciences and of converging technologies? How will current scientific knowledge and technologies evolve, and what emerging developments are envisaged? What visionary ideas can guide research so as to obtain broad benefits for humanity? What are the most urgent research and education issues? How can we develop a transformative national strategy to enhance individual capabilities and the resulting society as a whole? What should be done to obtain the best results in the next 10 to 20 years?

This report sets out several long-term implications of the convergence of technologies in key fields of human activity, including work, learning, ageing, group interaction and human evolution. If we take the right decisions and investments today, many of these visions could be realised within 20 years. Advancing simultaneously along many of these paths could bring about an age of innovation and prosperity which would be a turning point in the evolution of human society. The right of each person to use new knowledge and technologies to attain personal objectives, as well as the right to privacy and choice, lie at the basis of the developments envisaged.

This report is based on exploratory research already initiated in representative research organisations and on the views of leading scientists and engineers using research data.

Strategies for transformation. It is essential to prepare key organisations and societal activities for the changes made possible by the convergence of technologies. Activities which accelerate convergence in order to improve human performance must be enhanced, including focused research and development, increased technological synergy from the nanoscale, the development of interfaces between the sciences and technologies, and a holistic approach to monitoring the resulting evolution of society. The aim is to offer individuals and groups a wide range of attractive choices, while preserving fundamental values such as privacy, safety and moral responsibility. Education and training at all levels should use converging science and technology and should prepare people to take advantage of them. We must experiment with innovative ideas to motivate multidisciplinary research and development, while finding ways of addressing ethical, legal and moral concerns. In many fields of application, such as medical technology and health care, it is necessary to accelerate the advances which would take advantage of converging technologies.

Towards the Unification of Science and Converging Technologies. It will be necessary to evolve a hierarchical architecture for the integration of the natural and human sciences across several scales, dimensions and modalities of data. Half a millennium ago, the leaders of the Renaissance were simultaneously masters of several fields. Today, however, specialisation has divided the arts and engineering, and no one can master more than a small fragment of human creativity. The sciences have reached a watershed at which they must unite if they are to continue to advance rapidly. The convergence of the sciences may initiate a new renaissance, embodying a holistic vision of technology based on transformative tools, the mathematics of complex systems and a unified understanding of cause and effect in the physical world from the nanoscale to the planetary scale.

Major themes. Scientific leaders and decision-makers from various fields prepared written statements for a workshop in December 2001, assessing the potential impact of NBIC technologies on the improvement of human capabilities at the microscopic, individual, group and societal levels. During the workshop, the participants examined the vast potential in six different areas of relevance:

• The general potential of converging technologies. Representatives of governmental agencies and of the private sector set themselves the mission of exploring the potential of converging technologies and the research needs for improving human performance, as well as the general potential for revolutionary changes in the economy and in society. They identified the synergistic development of technologies based on nano, bio, information and cognition as a remarkable opportunity at the interface and frontier of the sciences and engineering in the coming decades, and proposed new visions of what it is possible to achieve.

Expanding human cognition and communication. The highest priority was given to “The Human Cognome Project”, a multidisciplinary effort to understand the structure, the functions and the potential improvements of the human mind. Other priority areas are: personal sensory interfaces; community enriched by humanised technology; learning how to learn; and improved tools for creativity.

Improving human health and physical capabilities. Six priority areas were identified: nano-bio processors for the research and development of treatments, including those resulting from bioinformatics, genomics and proteomics; implants based on nanotechnology and regenerative biosystems as substitutes for human organs or for monitoring physiological well-being; nanoscale devices and comparable discrete instruments for medical intervention; multi-modality platforms for increasing sensory capabilities, especially for persons with visual and hearing impairments; brain-to-brain and brain-to-machine interfaces; and virtual environments for training, design and forms of work unlimited by distance or by the physical scale on which it is performed.

Improving group and societal outcomes. An NBIC system called “The Communicator” would remove the barriers to communication caused by physical disabilities, linguistic differences, geographical distances and variations in knowledge, thereby greatly increasing the effectiveness of cooperation in schools, corporations, governmental agencies and throughout the world. Other areas of focus are the improvement of group creativity and productivity, cognitive engineering and developments relating to the networked society. A key priority will be revolutionary new products and services based on the integration of the four technologies from the nanoscale.

National security. Given the radical change in conflict in this new century, seven opportunities for strengthening national defence offered by technological convergence deserve high priority: data linkage and the anticipation of threats; uninhabited combat vehicles; education and training for war fighters; responses to chemical, biological, radiological and explosive threats; war-fighting systems; non-drug treatments to enhance human performance; and applications of human-machine interfaces.

Unification of science and education. To face future challenges, science education needs a radical transformation from elementary school through postgraduate training. The convergence of previously separate scientific disciplines and engineering fields cannot occur without the emergence of new kinds of people who understand several fields in depth and can work intelligently to integrate them.

New programmes, new concepts to ensure intellectual coherence, and new forms of educational institutions will be needed.

Beyond the 20-year time frame, or outside the present limits of high technology, convergence may have significant impacts in fields such as: the efficiency of work, the human body and mind throughout the life cycle, communication and education, mental health, aeronautics and space flight, food and agriculture, sustainable and intelligent environments, self-presentation and fashion, and the transformation of civilisation.

The recommendations of this report are far-reaching and fundamental, urging the transformation of science, engineering and technology at their very roots. The new developments will be revolutionary and must be governed by respect for human well-being and dignity. This report establishes objectives for societal and educational transformation. Building on the suggestions developed in the five topical groups and on the ideas in the more than 50 individual contributions, the workshop recommended a national priority area in research and development on converging technologies focused on improving human performance. The opportunity is broad, lasting and of general interest.

Individuals. Scientists and engineers at every career level should acquire skills in at least one NBIC area and in the neighbouring disciplines, collaborate with colleagues in other fields, and take risks in launching innovative projects which could advance NBIC.

Academia. Educational institutions at all levels should undertake major curricular and organisational reforms in order to restructure the teaching and research of science and engineering, so that previously separate disciplines may converge around common principles in order to train the technical workforce of the future.

The private sector. Manufacturing, biotechnology, information and medical-service companies will need to develop partnerships of unrivalled scope in order to exploit the enormous opportunities in technological convergence, investing in production facilities based on entirely new principles, materials, devices and systems, with increased emphasis on human development.

Government. The federal government should establish a national research and development area on converging technologies focused on improving human performance. Governmental organisations at all levels should provide leadership in creating the NBIC infrastructure and in coordinating the activity of other institutions, and must accelerate convergence by supporting new multidisciplinary scientific efforts, while sustaining the traditional disciplines which are essential to success. Ethical, legal, moral, economic, environmental, workforce-development and other social implications must be addressed from the outset, involving leading NBIC scientists and engineers, social scientists and a broad coalition of professional and civic organisations. Research on societal implications must be funded, and the risk of potential unwanted side effects must be monitored by a governmental organisation in order to anticipate and take corrective measures. Tools should be developed to anticipate scenarios for future development and application technology.

Professional societies. The scientific and engineering communities should create new means of interdisciplinary training and communication, reduce the barriers which prevent people from working across disciplines, aggressively highlight the opportunities of convergence within their conferences, develop links with a variety of other technical and medical organisations, and address the ethical issues connected with technological developments.

Other organisations. Non-governmental organisations representing potential user groups should contribute to the design and testing of converging technologies, in order to maximise the benefits for their diverse constituencies. Private research foundations should invest in NBIC research in those fields which are consistent with their unique missions. The press should increase high-quality coverage of science and technology, on the basis of the new converging paradigm, in order to inform citizens so that they may participate wisely in debates on ethical issues, such as the unexpected effects on inequality, policies on diversity and the implications of the transformation of human capabilities.

A great opportunity is created by the convergence of the sciences and technologies, beginning with integration from the nanoscale and having immense individual, societal and historical implications for human development. The participants in the meetings which prepared this report recommend a national priority area of research and development on converging technologies focused on improving human performance. This would be an appropriate framework for a coherent, long-term strategy in research and education. Science and technology will increasingly dominate the world as population, the exploitation of resources and the potential for social conflict grow. The success of this priority area of converging technologies is therefore essential for the future of humanity.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

Today we celebrate the Declaration of Independence of the USA.

Respecting and admiring the model of the Declaration of Independence of 4 July 1776, I invoke by this means the right of the Romanian people to declare its independence from all the neo-colonial suzerain powers which undermine the independence and sovereignty of this nation.

Yes, I believe in the American model (from this point of view)!

I want us to become independent again, as the American people did on 4 July 1776.

That is why I also initiated the #LegeaSuveranității, the first step towards regaining our independence and Sovereignty!

The aspiration to independence and sovereignty is a natural, innate right of every people, however large or small that nation may be!

The #LegeaSuveranității will have a new article

“Article 64 of the Civil Code is amended by the addition of paragraphs 3, 4 and 5, which shall read as follows:

“(3) No authority or individual may, by any technological mechanism, increase, diminish or disturb the individual physical or mental integrity of a person without the express, informed and freely expressed consent of that person.

Any intrusion into or form of intervention upon neuronal connections, as well as any intrusion at the level of the brain through the use of neuro-technology, of a brain–computer interface or of any other system or device, is prohibited in the absence of the express, informed and freely given consent of the person, even in medical circumstances.

Any system or device — whether neuro-technology, a brain–computer interface or another — whose purpose is to access or manipulate neuronal activity, in an invasive or non-invasive manner, is prohibited if it may affect the psychological and psychic continuity of the person, or if it diminishes or harms the autonomy of their will or their capacity to take decisions freely.”

This addition to the law was prompted by the appearance of several studies and discussions in academic circles, and also by the existence of a similar initiative in the Senate of Chile.

I leave below a few links which offer solid arguments in favour of the necessity of introducing into Romanian legislation clear rules in a field which has long ceased to be a science-fiction subject.

47. 13 July 2021 — “Gauleiter Iohannis is worried about the appearance of the “false sovereignists””

Gauleiter Iohannis is worried about the appearance of the “false sovereignists”

We thank Mr Iohannis for being concerned about the “false sovereignists”.

Romanians must not lose sight of the true concept of sovereignty, embodied in art. 1 para. 1 of the Constitution of Romania: “Romania is a national, sovereign and independent, unitary and indivisible State.”

True sovereignists write laws in the sovereign and higher interest of the Romanian people; they fight for the dignity and the prosperity of the Romanian citizen.

Moreover, we also agree with Mr Iohannis’s statement that “the ‘vaccination’ (editor’s note: for a State governed by the rule of law) of a society can be achieved only through education.”

Indeed, Romanian society must be vaccinated against globalism and servility.

The immunisation of society against globalism and against the plundering of Romania by foreigners will be achieved through the adoption by Parliament of the Sovereignty Act.

The #LegeaSuveranității offers Romania antibodies against the felling of the forests by the Austrians, against the plundering of the country’s resources by the French and the Germans, and against the export of added value by the multinationals to tax havens.

We thank the good patriot Iohannis for drawing Romanians’ attention to the true dangers and for inviting the Romanian people to be vaccinated against servility.

We invite Romanians to defend their country too, by supporting the #LegeaSuveranității initiative at http://VremSuveranitate.ro/

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

From a legal point of view, a great injustice has been partly righted — an abuse of the “State of attention!”.

From a political point of view, Dragnea was the first politician to support sovereignism publicly and consistently. A pity that he did not go all the way.

Therefore, from a twofold perspective, Dragnea’s release gives me joy.

I now expect that, without half measures, Liviu Dragnea will publicly support the #LegeaSuveranității, the embodiment and the keystone of the sovereignist project.

The #LegeaSuveranității has been supplemented and is approaching its final version, which will be resubmitted to the Legislative Council.

I present below the latest amendments which the Law will bring to the Criminal Code.

“After art. 195 of the Criminal Code, art. 195¹ is inserted, with the marginal heading “Disturbance or modification of physical or mental integrity”, which shall read as follows:

“1. Disturbing or modifying the individual physical or mental integrity of a person without that person’s express, informed and freely expressed consent is punished by imprisonment from 5 to 10 years.

2. The same penalty shall apply to the act of accessing or manipulating a person’s neuronal activity, as well as any intervention upon neuronal connections or intrusion at the level of the brain, in an invasive or non-invasive manner, in the absence of the person’s express, informed and freely expressed consent.”

Art. 197 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Ill-treatment of a minor”, is amended as follows:

1. After paragraph 1, paragraph 2 is inserted, reading as follows: “The act of inducing a minor who has not reached the age of 18 to change the biological sexual identity acquired at birth is punished by imprisonment from 5 to 10 years.

2. After paragraph 2, paragraph 3 is inserted, reading as follows: “If the act provided for in the preceding paragraph has produced physical consequences upon the minor, the special limits of the penalty are increased by one third.”

Art. 221 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Sexual corruption of minors”, is amended as follows:

1. After paragraph 5, paragraph 5¹ is inserted, reading as follows: “(1) The act of making available to children under the age of eighteen any materials of pornographic content which promote departure from gender identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality is punished by imprisonment from 6 months to 3 years.

2. Paragraph 6 is amended and shall read as follows: “(6) The attempt at the offences provided for in paras. (1), (2), (2¹) and (5¹) is punishable.”

I await your opinions, and also the copying of these proposals by the parliamentary parties and by our members of parliament.

Yes, this post constitutes an incitement to plagiarism for any Romanian politician.

“The brokering or encouragement of adoptions by persons outside the General Directorate for Social Assistance and Child Protection or the National Authority for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Children and Adoptions is punished by imprisonment from 3 to 10 years and the prohibition of the exercise of certain rights.”

This last amendment came at the suggestion of a friend who sent me the press article below.

I realised that he is perfectly right: immense fortunes are being made, and have been made, from the sale of Romania’s children, from speculating on the extreme poverty of young parents and on the despair of those who want children and cannot have them.

From such speculation in Romanian infants — most of them seen merely as goods fit for export — some have made mountains of money, many houses; some have even become presidents.

The Sovereignty Act must put an end to the squalor of the speculators in lives and in children!

The Sovereignty Act must defend tomorrow’s holders of Sovereignty: today’s children.

51. 9 August 2021 — “Eight months have already passed since we began work on #LegeaSuveranității! We shall soon reach the stage…”

Eight months have already passed since we began work on the #LegeaSuveranității! Soon we shall reach the stage of publication in the Official Gazette.

Meanwhile the Sovereignty Act is beginning to produce its effects, even before it has reached Parliament.

For the first time in the last 30 years, the word “SOVEREIGNTY” is being used in Romania in the public space!

More and more public figures dare to utter this word, which until the beginning of this year was considered either too “abstract” or downright politically incorrect.

Even some politicians have taken courage and introduced this word into their vocabulary. I have heard Adrian Năstase say SOVEREIGNTY several times; even Ludovic Orban used it in a context connected with their internal competition. Not to mention that even Ciolacu has taken courage and come out from under the bed with SOVEREIGNTY in his mouth.

I hope that more and more politicians will say SOVEREIGNTY. And that they will believe what they say. I hope that the appearance of this notion in public discourse will have as its effect a regaining of the Sovereignty lost over the last 30 years, a period in which politicians were afraid even to think it, let alone pronounce it.

And that is not the only “precocious” effect of the Sovereignty Act. Since this citizens’ legislative initiative has been spoken of, more and more members of parliament are struck by inspiration and speak of all sorts of legislative initiatives. Which is extraordinary!

Simion’s golden ones speak of an initiative concerning a moratorium on the felling of forests and of the intention to copy the Hungarian law against transgender propaganda. Certainly, these “initiatives” were already to be found in the Sovereignty Act when the inspiration came to the members of parliament mentioned above, but never mind. Not only does plagiarism in this matter not disturb me, but I implore them to copy the text exactly, so that these initiatives have a chance of passing.

Likewise, Senator Șoșoacă has a legislative initiative called the anti-Romanianism initiative. I do not know what it concerns, for I have not seen the text of the law proposed, just as I have not seen the texts of the laws “written” by Simion’s boys. But never mind. The intention to legislate is correct and legitimate for a member of parliament. That is precisely why they are sent to Parliament: to make laws… even at the verbal level it is good that the intention to legislate is expressed, the intention not to let the structures of the System write all our laws for us.

Yes, my dear friends, I am proud of this first success of ours, of those of us who have been working for eight months on the draft Sovereignty Act!

SOVEREIGNTY has returned to the dictionary of Romanian politicians. I hope that soon it will also enter their agenda — their real agenda, not their declared one.

And members of parliament are beginning to compete in inspiration and productivity in the field of legislative initiatives.

We, however, must go #PânăLaCapăt — all the way!

And the end of our road will not be there and then, when the law reaches Parliament, nor even when and if it is voted by the present Parliament.

The final destination is the Sovereignty of Romania, the dignity and the prosperity of this people.

That is why I invite you to join the #ArmataSuveranității and to enrol as a volunteer at http://VremSuveranitate.ro/

Post scriptum: I cannot remember… have I already written the word SOVEREIGNTY in this post?

I have just learned that word is going round that I am supposedly being briefed in the USA… like any CIA agent, as the saying goes.

Apparently I am not alone, but accompanied by the Mossad agent Diplan, with whom I work under cover.

In order to try to deny this information — evidently true — I shall have to call upon the ultra-secret teleportation device of my colleagues at the CIA… so within the next hour I shall be in the centre of Bucharest. If anyone wants me to bring something from the States, I await a message in the comments.

Bear in mind that I also have to pack, and we agents have a great deal of equipment, so: only small things — a chocolate bar, a can of cola, no more.

I leave you below the photograph from the briefing centre where I am working on the explanatory memorandum for the #LegeaSuveranității, together with certain grey eminences.

Lord… how hard it is to be a secret agent these days!

53. 25 August 2021 — “I have no doubt. And he is not merely one of our ordinary securitate men: he has a double command, from…”

I have no doubt. And he is not merely one of our ordinary securitate men: he has a double command — from here and from across the pond.

Everything, absolutely everything in his curriculum vitae, his colourless personality and mediocre intellect, all the support he enjoys from the highest spheres despite his dusty and proven criminal past, all his anti-national actions — from the speculative attack on the Leu a few years ago to the doubling of Romania’s external debt within a few months — strengthens my conviction that this collaborator is not like any other collaborator in our politics… there is something “special” about this one.

In the short term I do not know… probably we should take to the streets in force, for the opposition is impotent and the disaster is imminent.

In the long term, however, we must not allow such a thing to happen again; we must no longer permit agents of foreign powers to reach positions of public dignity or public authority.

By criminalising the act, by bringing it within the sphere of the criminal law, by qualifying it as TREASON.

That is why, in the latest version of the Sovereignty Act, art. 394 of the Criminal Code has been amended and the reach of the criminal law has been extended to this act and to this category of perpetrators.

Here is how art. 9 para. 9 of the #LegeaSuveranității reads:

“In article 394, paragraph (1), a new letter is inserted, letter e), reading as follows:

“e) the exercise of a function of public dignity or one which entails the exercise of State authority.”

In the Explanatory memorandum of the Sovereignty Act I also set out the reasons why such an amendment is imperatively necessary:

“Paragraph 9 introduces a new letter into article 394 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading Treason — letter e — which criminalises the act of a Romanian citizen of entering into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State, through the exercise of a function of public dignity or one which entails the exercise of State authority. Account was taken of the fact that the exercise of a function of public dignity, or of a function entailing the exercise of State authority, by the active subject of the offence of treason — namely by the Romanian citizen who has entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State — constitutes a danger to national sovereignty and to the security of the State. The exercise of such a function of public dignity, or of one entailing the exercise of State authority, constitutes a state of real and imminent danger to the constitutional and legal order in Romania, without there being any need for the existence of the means provided for in letters a to d of article 394 of the Criminal Code; for which reason, in defence of national sovereignty and of economic, financial, health and social security, it is necessary to criminalise this act precisely in order to avoid the consequences of the criminal actions of citizens who have entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof — the accession of such persons to such a function being the very aim pursued by the foreign powers and organisations or by their agents. Account was likewise taken of the fact that the offence of High treason, provided for and punished by article 398 of the Criminal Code, criminalises only acts committed by “the President of Romania or by another member of the Supreme Council of National Defence”, leaving outside the criminal sphere the acts committed by the other persons who exercise functions of public dignity or functions entailing the exercise of State authority.”

Moreover, if the legislative amendment takes place during Cîțu’s term of office, the newly criminalised act could produce its effects in his regard as well… and he would risk a penalty of 10 to 20 years’ imprisonment. It is true that he already has a little practice… 2 days are a good beginning for 20 years!

On the Green Romania Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Green Romania Act.

From today I shall publish here fragments from the #LegeaSuveranității and from its Explanatory memorandum.

After 8 months of consultations and joint work on this draft law, after 20 versions and dozens of hours of discussions, this is the result of our labour:

The Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen”

Starting from the constitutional principle that national sovereignty belongs to the Romanian people, and also from the need for increased involvement of the Romanian citizen in the decision-making and legislative process through the implementation of the principle of participatory democracy, by the exercise of the right of legislative initiative by at least 100,000 citizens with the right to vote, in observance of art. 5 para. (1) of Act no. 24/2000 on the norms of legislative technique for the drafting of normative acts, read together with the provisions of art. 74 paragraph (1) of the Constitution of Romania, republished,

proceeding from the necessity of adopting a law which guarantees and strengthens the sovereignty of the Romanian State, governed by article 1 paragraph (1) of the Constitution of Romania, republished, through the implementation of necessary and urgent measures in various fields which are such as to affect national sovereignty, understood both as the right of the nation to identity and self-determination and as a state of law conforming to the constitutional order,

having regard to the need to guarantee and strengthen the fundamental rights of the citizen by instituting rules which make impossible the limitation, delay or avoidance of parliamentary scrutiny of normative acts providing for limitations, restrictions or conditions upon fundamental rights and freedoms, and to the need to repeal the legal provisions in force which make such unconstitutional limitations possible,

taking into account the indications and conclusions of the Resolution of the European Parliament of 13 November 2020 on the impact of COVID-19 measures on democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights (2020/2790(RSP)) in the Member States, among them Romania,

and also taking into account the imperative character of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Dignity of the Human Being with regard to the Application of Biology and Medicine — the Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine, signed at Oviedo on 4 April 1997 — and of the Additional Protocol to the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Dignity of the Human Being with regard to the Application of Biology and Medicine, on the Prohibition of Cloning Human Beings, signed at Paris on 12 January 1998, ratified by Act no. 17 of 22 February 2001, and of the Convention of 26 November 1968 on the Non-Applicability of Statutory Limitations to War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity, adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations on 26 November 1968, and of the need for the direct and immediate implementation of those conventions in national legislation, with the effect of explicitly and indiscriminately prohibiting the compulsory administration of any medical treatments and/or devices, and of prohibiting any form of discrimination as a result of accepting or refusing any medical treatments and/or devices,

having regard to the fact that the protection of human dignity is founded on the idea that man is an intellectual and moral being inclined to determine himself and to develop in freedom, and also that the inalienable dignity of man consists precisely in the necessity that his status as a responsible person be respected,

taking into consideration the need to strengthen the rule of law through the observance of legality and constitutionality by the direct, non-discriminatory and immediate implementation of the decisions of the Constitutional Court; having regard to the need to render transparent the decision-making process of the administration by publishing all acts of general interest and making them fully and freely available to citizens through the care of the Official Gazette of Romania, to the need to guarantee freedom of expression in the online environment, and to the need for parliamentary representation of as large a proportion as possible of Romanian citizens with the right to vote,

taking into consideration the disastrous ecological situation at national level, and the drastic diminution of the national forest stock caused by the massive and irrational deforestation and clear-felling of the last 30 years, and the need to prohibit the abusive and excessive exploitation of forests with a view to the reconstruction and regeneration of the national forest stock, and the need for the immediate and total prohibition of the export of unprocessed timber and of the import of waste,

taking into account the obligation to preserve the national patrimony and the need to maximise the profitability of the exploitation of the riches held in public ownership for the benefit of the Romanian citizen, with the consequence of criminalising any acts having the effect of diminishing the national wealth,

having regard to the low degree of transparency of the decision-making process within public institutions in Romania,

taking into consideration the need for the defence of the entire national territory by the entire people on a voluntary basis, and the need to acquire new, latest-generation military equipment directly from the manufacturer and exclusively in observance of the national legislation governing Offset in the field of military procurement,

taking into account the decisions of the Constitutional Court on the constitutionality of certain provisions in criminal and criminal-procedural matters, and in other social fields as well,

having regard to the fact that the more than 100,000 citizens’ signatures in favour of this legislative initiative constitute a viable argument for respecting the will of the Romanian people and its sovereignty,

The Parliament of Romania adopts this law:

Section 1 — Title of the draft normative act

The Act for the protection of the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen”

Section 2 — Grounds for issuing the normative act

In recent years, and particularly in the last year and a half following the appearance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, a series of rules have been adopted in Romanian legislation which contravene, either individually or as a whole, the spirit and the letter of the Constitution of Romania, republished. This state of fact and of law is such as to affect gravely and directly the sovereignty of the Romanian State, governed by article 1, paragraph 1 of the Constitution, sovereignty being understood both as the right of the nation to identity and self-determination and as a state of law conforming to the constitutional order.

The reaction to the situation of stress to which the Romanian State and the Romanian citizen have been subjected as a result of the appearance of the pandemic state, from March 2020 to the present, both economically and socially, has revealed a series of dysfunctions at the level of the institutions of the Romanian State such as to affect directly, fundamentally and irreversibly national sovereignty.

Not least, it follows from the conclusions of the Resolution of the European Parliament of 13 November 2020 on the impact of COVID-19 measures on democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights (2020/2790(RSP)) that in Romania too advantage was taken of lacunary legislation which leaves room for excesses dangerous to the rights and freedoms of the Romanian citizen, to sustainable economic and social development, and also to the coherence and correct functioning of the security institutions of Romania — a matter which has resulted in the infringement of constitutional rights and freedoms.

Moreover, in adopting restrictive measures by laws and normative acts for the management of the crisis generated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the authorities in Romania never observed the principle of proportionality with the forecast or manifest level of gravity of the crisis, nor the principle of the non-discriminatory application of those restrictive measures — principles expressly governed by article 53 paragraph (2) of the Constitution of Romania for the restriction of the exercise of certain rights or freedoms.

Having regard to the above, the immediate necessity of this legislative initiative follows, with a view to remedying the situation described.

The normal and immediate solution is the enactment of a single regulation to correct the state of law described above, by concentrating and implementing targeted measures intended to consolidate the national sovereignty belonging to the Romanian people. The internal and international economic, social and political developments of recent years have had as their effect the pronounced undermining of the sovereignty of the Romanian people.

Popular sovereignty represents the right of the people to decide its own future and to establish the priorities of the State, its organisation and functioning, as well as the right of the people to supervise the activity of the State.

Under article 2, paragraph (2) of the Constitution of Romania, republished, “National sovereignty belongs to the Romanian people…”

Present-day reality demonstrates that the rigours of the Constitution are no longer to be found in the quality of life of Romania’s citizens.

The suppression of popular sovereignty and the existing chaos in the relations between the three powers — legislative, executive and judicial — annul the concept of constitutional democracy and contribute to the invalidation of the Social Contract existing between the people and its authorities.

Thus, the Romanian people can no longer dispose sovereignly of the natural, material and human resources existing on the territory of the country; the authorities institute abusive medical measures against their own citizens; the electoral process is systematically defrauded; and the intelligence services are no longer in the service of the Romanian people.

For these reasons, and not least in order to restore to the people the sovereignty guaranteed by the Constitution, certain legislative amendments have become necessary, as well as the introduction of new legal rules whereby sovereignty is governed and imposed much more explicitly.

The Sovereignty Act has as its sole object of regulation the restoration of sovereignty and of the rule of law, as provided for by article 1 paragraph 1 of the Constitution of Romania. The uniqueness of the regulation in the matter of national sovereignty takes concrete form through amendments to rules in connected matters, indispensable to the achievement of the aim pursued.

These amendments constitute the means by which sovereignty and the rule of law in Romania are consolidated. The legislative project proceeds from the constitutional rigour that sovereignty belongs to the Romanian people and that it rests upon four pillars:

1) strengthening and guaranteeing the rights and freedoms of the citizen, and the sovereignty and security of the Romanian State;

2) protecting and ensuring a healthy environment allowing the development and the normal life of the citizen;

3) maximising the benefits obtained by the citizen from the natural riches of the country and, generally, from the economic environment, seen as means of socio-economic development; and

4) consolidating the national defence system, a system which is to be made more efficient and subordinated exclusively to the will of the people, having as its sole purpose the guaranteeing of the sovereignty, independence and unity of the State, of the territorial integrity of the country and of constitutional democracy, in observance of the provisions of art. 118 of the Constitution of Romania.

56. 28 August 2021 — “After the “Preamble” of the Act and the sub-chapter “Description of the present situation” of the Explanatory memor…”

After the “Preamble” of the Law and the sub-chapter “Description of the present situation” of the Explanatory memorandum to the #LegeaSuveranității, from today we shall set out one article (or, in some cases, one paragraph) at a time from our legislative project.

Limitations of fundamental human rights and freedoms may not be established by normative administrative acts.”

“Chapter I adopts new rules or legislative amendments aimed at consolidating the rule of law and protecting the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people and citizen.

Article 1 excludes the possibility of limiting fundamental human rights and freedoms by normative administrative acts, thereby restoring the supremacy of the Constitution and of the rights established by it for the Romanian citizen, seen as the legitimate beneficiary of constitutional rights and the sole holder of national sovereignty. In this way the possibility is eliminated of arbitrary limitations of fundamental rights being instituted by administrative entities which have no right to legislate or to establish restrictions of rights and freedoms. The aim pursued is the consolidation of the principle of the separation of powers in the State and of constitutional democracy, principles according to which the Romanian State is organised under article 1 para. 4 of the Constitution.”

Of course, we could also have said that the reaffirmation of this Constitutional principle has as its purpose the restoration of normality in the midst of a period of Constitutional aberration and absurdity, in which by Government Decisions — normative administrative acts, and therefore of infra-legal status — limitations of fundamental rights of the citizen are established.

But we did not go into further detail in the Explanatory memorandum… it would have been superfluous even for a primary-school pupil.

Of course, these Government Decisions are issued on the basis of a law which is itself unconstitutional — Act 55/2020. A law which will have the fate it deserves, and which you will discover in only two days.

Article 4 of Emergency Ordinance no. 1/1999 on the regime of the state of siege and the state of emergency, published in the Official Gazette no. 22 of 21 January 1999, as subsequently supplemented and amended, is amended and shall read as follows:

“During the state of siege or the state of emergency, the exercise of certain fundamental rights and freedoms may be restricted only in so far as the situation requires it and in observance of art. 53 of the Constitution of Romania, republished, with the exception of the human rights and fundamental freedoms provided for in art. 32, and of those laid down in the Constitution in articles 21 — Free access to justice, 22 — The right to life and to physical and mental integrity, 23 — Individual liberty, 24 — The right to defence, 26 — Intimate, family and private life, 28 — The secrecy of correspondence, 29 — Freedom of conscience, 30 — Freedom of expression, 31 — The right to information, 34 — The right to the protection of health and 35 — The right to a healthy environment, 40 — The right of association, 42 — The prohibition of forced labour, 44 — The right of private property, 45 — Economic freedom, 46 — The right of inheritance, 47 — The standard of living, 48 — The family, 49 — The protection of children and young people, 50 — The protection of persons with disabilities, 51 — The right of petition.”

“Article 2 amends, in the sense described above, Emergency Ordinance 1/1999, eliminating the possibility of restricting the exercise of fundamental rights during the state of siege and the state of emergency. Account was taken of the fact that no situation, however exceptional, can justify the restriction of rights inherent in the human condition and in the status of citizen — a fact confirmed by the wording of art. 15 of the Constitution: “(1) Citizens enjoy the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Constitution and in other laws, and have the obligations laid down therein.” Thus, the Right to life and to physical and mental integrity, the Right to defence, the Right to free movement, the Right to intimate, family and private life, to the Inviolability of the home, to freedom of conscience or to freedom of expression cannot be limited on any ground whatever, since their restriction could not have as its hypothetical outcome an exit from an exceptional situation, but rather the deepening of a state of abnormality.”

58. 30 August 2021 — On article 3 of the Act

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

Article 3 of the #LegeaSuveranității is clear, simple and unequivocal

Act 55 of 15 May 2020 on certain measures for preventing and combating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, published in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 396 of 15 May 2020, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is repealed”

In article 3, for the same reasons set out above, Act 55/2020 is repealed in its entirety, on the basis of the considerations set out by the Constitutional Court in Decision 457/2020. In the reasoning of that Decision the Constitutional Court held unequivocally that “To ‘construct’ by law a new institution — the ‘state of alert’, with a regime evidently less restrictive than the state of emergency governed by the constituent legislature — but one which permits the circumvention of the constitutional framework governing legality, the separation of powers in the State, and the conditions for restricting the exercise of certain rights and freedoms, is contrary to the general requirements of the State governed by the rule of law, as enshrined in the Constitution of Romania.” In reaching that conclusion, the Constitutional Court also held that “even in a state of public emergency, the fundamental principle of the rule of law must prevail. The rule of law consists of several aspects which are all of capital importance and must be maintained in their entirety. Those elements are the principle of legality, the separation of powers, the division of powers, human rights, the State monopoly on force, public and independent administration of justice, protection of privacy, the right to vote, freedom of access to political power, democratic participation of citizens and their supervision of the decision-making process, decision-making, transparency of government, freedom of expression, association and assembly, the rights of minorities, and the majority rule in political decision-making. The rule of law means that governmental agencies must operate within the law and their actions must be subject to review by independent courts. The legal certainty of individuals must be guaranteed.” Not least, account is taken of the fact that it is no longer justified to maintain a regulation of limited applicability arising from an exceptional situation — the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic — all the more so since, at the time of the formulation of this legislative proposal, the World Health Organization is on the point of declaring the transition from pandemic to a controllable endemic state. Having regard to all these aspects — the manifestly unconstitutional character of Act 55/2020, all of them produced by the state of pressure created by the pandemic situation in which that legal provision was adopted, and also the need to resume, under conditions of normality, the legislative process for the adoption of a rule of general applicability for pandemic, endemic and epidemiological situations — the sole solution for a return to a state of legality and constitutionality, as the only modes of exercising national sovereignty, is the repeal in its entirety of Act 55/2020.

59. 31 August 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității makes it impossible to administer compulsorily any type of medicinal product…”

The #LegeaSuveranității makes it impossible to administer compulsorily any type of medicine, sanitary material, medical device or any other therapeutic means, and prohibits any form of positive or negative discrimination “as a result of accepting or refusing a medical treatment or device.”

Act 46 of 21 January 2003 on the rights of the patient, published in the Official Gazette no. 51 of 29 January 2003, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

In article 4, after paragraph (1), a new paragraph is inserted, para. (2), reading as follows:

“Medicines, sanitary materials, medical devices and other therapeutic means may be administered or applied to Romanian citizens only after obtaining beforehand the agreement and written consent of the patients, following prior and obligatory information given on the basis of the leaflets supplied by the manufacturer of the medicines proposed, medical emergencies excepted.”

After article 36¹, a new article is inserted, art. 36², reading as follows:

“No citizen may be discriminated against, positively or negatively, as a result of accepting or refusing a medical treatment or device.”

“Article 4 amends the Patients’ Rights Act 46/2003, requiring the agreement and written consent of the patient to be obtained before the administration of medicines, sanitary materials, medical devices and other therapeutic means. The measure is absolutely necessary for strengthening the citizen’s right to life and to physical and mental integrity, brought into accord with freedom of conscience. Each of these is an element indissolubly linked to the sovereignty of the people, seen as the totality of citizens whose rights and freedoms must be guaranteed.

For the same reason, in paragraph 2 of article 4 there is also prohibited any discrimination, positive or negative, as a result of accepting or refusing a medical treatment or device. Any discrimination is contrary to the Constitution, being such as to affect the rights and freedoms of a part of the people — a fact which directly affects not only the right of the citizen as an individual but the very sovereignty of the Romanian State, through the discrimination against and the limitation of the rights of a part of society.”

60. 1 September 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității prohibits the marketing or the use of medicines, vaccines, …”

The #LegeaSuveranității prohibits the marketing or use of medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products for which the manufacturer does not offer guarantees and demonstrably viable remedies, or for which complete clinical trials have not been carried out; it eliminates advertising for medicines and prohibits the offering of advantages (the bribing) of doctors by the manufacturers of medicines:

Act 95 of 14 April 2006 on the reform of the health system, republished, published in the Official Gazette no. 652 of 28 August 2015, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

After article 704, a new article is inserted, art. 704¹, reading as follows:

“(1) No medicines or medical devices may be marketed or used, and no medical treatments applied, for which the manufacturer does not offer guarantees and demonstrably viable remedies against adverse effects.

The marketing or use of medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products for which complete clinical trials have not been carried out in accordance with the methodology established by Law is prohibited.”

In article 811, paragraph (1) is amended and shall read as follows:

“(1) For the purposes of this chapter, advertising for medicines includes any form of information by direct contact (the “door-to-door” system), as well as any form of promotion intended to encourage the prescription, distribution, sale or consumption of medicines; advertising for medicines shall include in particular:

- advertising for medicines directed at persons qualified to prescribe or distribute medicines;

- visits by medical representatives to persons qualified to prescribe medicines;

Article 813 is amended and shall read as follows:

“(1) Any form of commercial advertising on television, radio and on social networks for authorised or unauthorised medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products is prohibited.

The direct distribution of medicines to the population by manufacturers for promotional purposes is prohibited.

Article 5 seeks to defend the state of health of the Romanian people, holder of national sovereignty, amendments being made to Act 95/2006 on the reform of the health system whereby the marketing or use of medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products is prohibited where the manufacturer does not offer guarantees and demonstrably viable remedies, or where complete clinical trials have not been carried out.

Likewise, in paragraph 2, three sub-points of article 811 of Act 95 of 14 April 2006 are repealed which permit certain immoral forms of advertising for medicines with a direct impact on the state of health of the Romanian people — a fact which endangers national sovereignty. For that reason, sub-points 5, 6 and 7 of article 811 of Act 95 of 14 April 2006, reading as follows, have also been removed: “- encouraging the prescription or distribution of medicines by offering, promising or granting advantages in money or in kind, save in cases where these are of symbolic value; - sponsoring promotional meetings attended by persons qualified to prescribe or distribute medicines; - sponsoring scientific congresses attended by persons qualified to prescribe or distribute medicines and, in particular, paying the travel and accommodation expenses occasioned by them.”

For the same reasons, in paragraph 3, art. 813 of Act 95/2006 has been amended, prohibiting any form of commercial advertising on television, radio and on social networks for authorised or unauthorised medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products.

For the same considerations, the direct distribution of medicines to the population by manufacturers for promotional purposes has also been prohibited.

“It is prohibited to make available to children under the age of eighteen any information or materials which promote departure from biological sexual identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality.”

In article 46, paragraph (3), letter i) is amended and shall read as follows:

“the systematic conduct in schools, at least once per semester, of programmes of education for life, including sexual education for children over 14, with a view to preventing the contraction of sexually transmitted diseases and the pregnancy of minors;”

Article 6 amends Act 272/2004 on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child, introducing provisions concerning the defence of the physical and mental integrity of the minor, in his capacity as a citizen holding rights. Thus, until the age of 18, any form of intervention upon the body of the minor for the purpose of changing the sexual identity acquired at birth is prohibited. At the same time it is prohibited to make available to children any materials of a pornographic character or which promote departure from gender identity, such materials being capable of causing psychological traumas which will mark the citizen’s entire existence. In adopting these amendments, account is taken both of the higher interest of the child and of his right to decide and dispose of his own body in full knowledge of the facts after the moment of attaining psychological maturity, so that any premature influences upon the normal physical and mental development of the Romanian citizen are removed. Not least, account is taken of the irreversible character of any premature gender modifications — modifications which will have a negative effect both upon the development of the minor and, directly, upon the birth rate in Romania, an aspect which directly influences national sovereignty.”

62. 3 September 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității prohibits and punishes every possible form of intrusion at the level of …”

The #LegeaSuveranității prohibits and punishes every possible form of intrusion at the level of the brain through the use of neuro-technology, instituting new guarantees concerning the individual physical and mental integrity of the person.

This regulation is a world first, being the first express and explicit rule seeking to protect and to secure respect for the “neuronal rights” of the person; a similar regulation is to be found only on the agenda of the Senate of Chile, but has not been adopted up to this moment.

Not least, it must be said that in the greatest universities of the world the studies and discussions on the subject of the discipline called “neuronal law”, and of “neuronal rights”, are advanced, the existence of rules instituting guarantees at this level being regarded as a necessity and an urgency in relation to the speed of technological development and to the discussions concerning the imminence of the implementation of what is called “biodigital convergence” or NBICS (NANOTECHNOLOGY, BIOTECHNOLOGY, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND COGNITIVE SCIENCE).

More details about NBICS and the reason why we considered the adoption of a regulation in this field to be urgent may be found at https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/sites/default/files/microsites/os…

Having regard to all the above, and starting from the principle that “good watch wards off ill fortune”, at the suggestion of my friend Radu Golban I have proposed the following text of law — a text which, as you will see in the coming days, is supplemented in the Sovereignty Act by a criminal provision which criminalises the act of infringing the neuronal rights of any person:

In article 64 of Act no. 287 of 17 July 2009 on the Civil Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 511 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, after paragraph (2) three new paragraphs are inserted, paras. (3) to (5), which shall read as follows:

“(3) No authority or individual may, by any technological mechanism, increase, diminish or disturb the individual physical or mental integrity of a person without that person’s written, express, informed and freely expressed consent or, in the case of a person under judicial interdiction or of a patient unable to express his will, without the written, express, informed and freely expressed consent of the legal representative.

Any intrusion into or form of intervention upon neuronal connections, as well as any intrusion at the level of the brain through the use of neuro-technology, of a brain–computer interface or of any other system or device, is prohibited in the absence of the written, express, informed and freely given consent of the person, even in medical circumstances, or, in the case of a person under judicial interdiction or of a patient unable to express his will, of the legal representative.

The use or holding of any system or device — whether neuro-technology, a brain–computer interface or another — whose purpose is to access or manipulate neuronal activity, in an invasive or non-invasive manner, is prohibited if it may affect the psychological and psychic continuity of the person, or if it diminishes or harms the autonomy of their will or their capacity to take decisions freely.”

Article 7 supplements article 64 of the Civil Code, instituting new guarantees concerning the individual physical or mental integrity of the person. Account was taken both of the technological developments of recent years and of the latest results of the studies of the most advanced research laboratories in the field, all of which create the conditions for possible intrusions at the level of the brain through the use of neuro-technology. Having regard to the potential risks represented by the absence of regulation in a field which may have direct effects upon the Romanian citizen as an individual, and upon collectivities as a whole — both of which may cause uncontrolled influences upon society and therefore, by implication, upon national sovereignty — the use or holding of any device whose purpose is to access or manipulate neuronal activity, or to diminish the autonomy of the will or the capacity of citizens to take decisions freely, has been prohibited.”

63. 4 September 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității, whose article-by-article presentation we continue today, prohibits …”

The #LegeaSuveranității, whose article-by-article presentation we continue today, prohibits access by any legal entity holding electronic communications networks, or technologies and equipment used within IT infrastructures, to the private property of Romanian citizens without the prior written agreement of all the owners and/or co-owners in residential buildings.

I know: it is something normal and self-evident, only that at present things are not so… And the Sovereignty Act sets out first of all to re-establish normality and common sense in Romania.

In article 5 of Act no. 159 of 19 July 2016 on the regime of the physical infrastructure of electronic communications networks and on establishing certain measures for reducing the cost of installing electronic communications networks, published in the Official Gazette no. 559 of 25 July 2016, paragraph (2) is amended and shall read as follows:

“The provisions of para. (1) shall apply after obtaining the written agreement of all the owners and/or co-owners, also in the case of the right of access to spaces held in undivided ownership in blocks of flats, including as regards the fixing of electronic communications networks, of the technologies and equipment used within IT and communications infrastructures of national interest, and within the electronic communications networks through which electronic communications services are provided, or of elements of physical infrastructure necessary to support them, on the walls or terraces of those buildings.”

Article 8 amends paragraph 3 of art. 5 of Act 159/2016 on the regime of the physical infrastructure of electronic communications networks and on establishing certain measures for reducing the cost of installing electronic communications networks, granting owners and co-owners of buildings the right to use continuously, uninterruptedly and unconditionally the buildings of which they are owners or co-owners. Account was taken of the fact that allowing, without restriction and without prior authorisation, any legal entity holding electronic communications networks, or technologies and equipment used within IT and communications infrastructures of national interest, and within the electronic communications networks through which electronic communications services are provided, or elements of physical infrastructure necessary to support them, constitutes an unacceptable limitation of the right of property — a fact which may constitute a grave infringement of the sovereignty of the Romanian people.”

64. 5 September 2021 — On a project for the country

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

While our members of parliament are on holiday or occupied with scandals, deals and shady arrangements; while the country sinks into disaster, terror and dictatorship under the governorship of Iohannis, we, the citizens of this country, are obliged to look for viable solutions, for real solutions. We have no choice!

That is why I shall continue to present to you, article by article, the #LegeaSuveranității — a draft law as large as a project for the country.

A draft law and a project for the country in which I believe, and which I sincerely believe to be more than necessary: it is the only solution!

From today we shall speak of the amendments which article 9 of the Law brings to the Criminal Code, each paragraph of article 9 adding or amending one article in the Criminal Code. Article 9 has 11 paragraphs, the Sovereignty Act thus making 11 amendments in the Criminal Code alone — although, as you will see, certain acts have also been criminalised in other articles of the Law, through amendments and additions to non-criminal rules or to special laws, such as the Forestry Code or the national-security Acts, for example.

Thus, paragraph 1 of article 9 of the Sovereignty Act comes to complete the amendments made by the Law to article 64 of the Civil Code — amendments of which we spoke a few days ago, which governed what we have called “the neuronal rights of the person”, rights which would have remained incompletely governed in the absence of the criminalisation of the acts which infringe them.

Thus, paragraph 1 of article 9 introduces a new article into the Criminal Code, article 195¹, with the marginal heading “Disturbance or modification of physical or mental integrity” — a criminal provision which, like the civil rule it defends and completes, is unique in the world at this moment:

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

After article 195, a new article is inserted, art. 195¹, with the marginal heading “Disturbance or modification of physical or mental integrity”, reading as follows:

“(1) Disturbing or modifying the individual physical or mental integrity of a person without that person’s written, express, informed and freely expressed consent is punished by imprisonment from 5 to 10 years and the prohibition of certain rights.

The act of holding or using any system or device whose purpose is to access or manipulate neuronal activity, of accessing or manipulating a person’s neuronal activity, as well as any intervention upon neuronal connections or intrusion at the level of the brain, in an invasive or non-invasive manner, in the absence of the person’s written, express, informed and freely expressed consent, is punished by imprisonment from 7 to 20 years and the prohibition of certain rights.

Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal.

Thus, paragraph 1 introduces a new article into the Criminal Code, article 195¹, with the marginal heading “Disturbance or modification of physical or mental integrity”, criminalising acts which infringe the provisions of article 64 of the Civil Code, as amended by this draft Law. Thus there has been made punishable the “Disturbance or modification of the individual physical or mental integrity of a person without that person’s written, express, informed and freely expressed consent”, and also the act of “holding or using any system or device whose purpose is to access or manipulate neuronal activity, of accessing or manipulating a person’s neuronal activity, as well as any intervention upon neuronal connections or intrusion at the level of the brain, in an invasive or non-invasive manner, in the absence of the person’s written, express, informed and freely expressed consent”. The legal provisions thus introduced into the Criminal Code are necessary for the defence of the social values protected by the civil rule and for the defence of the rights and of the physical and mental integrity of the Romanian citizen, as fundamental elements of national sovereignty.

65. 6 September 2021 — On the protection of the child

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

The #LegeaSuveranității criminalises, and punishes with up to 20 years’ imprisonment, the act of inducing a minor who has not reached the age of 18 to change the biological sexual identity acquired at birth.

Bringing within the criminal sphere the act of infringing the provisions of Act 272/2004 on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child — as amended by art. 6 of the Sovereignty Act (an article which you will find in my earlier posts) — is the only manner in which the grave mental, psychological and behavioural disturbances which such an act may have upon the minor can be avoided. In this way, unlike the legislative “model” proposed by the Hungarian conservative government, which leaves unpunished the act of “perverting” the minor, the Sovereignty Act will concretely and effectively protect the higher interest of the child and the physical and mental health of the Romanian people.

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

In article 197, after paragraph (1), two new paragraphs are inserted, paras. (2) and (3), reading as follows:

“(2) The act of inducing a minor who has not reached the age of 18 to change the biological sexual identity acquired at birth is punished by imprisonment from 7 to 15 years.

If the act provided for in the preceding paragraph was committed by a parent, guardian, teacher or professor, or produced physical consequences upon the minor, the special limits of the penalty are increased by one third.

“Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal.

Paragraph 2 amends Art. 197 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Ill-treatment of a minor”, introducing two new paragraphs, namely paragraphs 2 and 3. Paragraph 2 of article 197 criminalises “the act of inducing a minor who has not reached the age of 18 to change the biological sexual identity acquired at birth”, whether or not it had the outcome pursued by the perpetrator. The reason for criminalising this act lies in the grave mental, psychological and behavioural disturbances which such an act may have upon the minor, even though the minor cannot decide alone upon the actual, physical modification of the sexual identity acquired at birth. Paragraph 3 introduces an aggravating circumstance in respect of the act provided for in paragraph 2, as introduced by this draft law, increasing by one third the penalty applied to the perpetrator if he has the status of parent, guardian, teacher or professor, or if the act itself produced physical consequences upon the minor, whatever the status of the perpetrator.

66. 6 September 2021 — “For some days the whole political chessboard, from the “right” to the “left”, has had the motion on its lips…”

For some days the whole political chessboard, from the “right” to the “left”, has had the motion on its lips

The opponents of the motion — that is, the supporters of the convict — say, broadly, that the motion is bad, irresponsible, a generator of instability, and that Cîțu is, overall, good and not bad.

The supporters of the motion, the adversaries of the convict (some of them only declaratively), say that the motion is the only chance, that only thus shall we be rid of the jailbird. They say that Cîțu is bad and not good. And they are right.

Only that the “motioneers”, like the tipsy citizen in the play, cannot agree which motion to vote for. As in “whom do I vote for?”…

What is clear is that the motioneers are right to want to send Cuie Mîțu into the overflowing rubbish bin of the history of Romania’s governments.

Only, or rather above all only, that no one proposes anything concrete by way of an alternative, nothing to save us from disaster.

Only “down with Cîțu”, which, however correct it may be, is absolutely insufficient. Mere footwork… a clumsy dance, without any outcome for us, for those of us who pay dearly for this cheap spectacle, badly acted, full of discords and stammering… and without stakes for us, for the “ordinary citizens”.

Some, like the USR+, merely want a larger share of the cake of power. Others, the PSD or AUR, dream only of reaching the cake by way of the long-dreamed-of early elections.

Nothing for us. Not even declaratively. Have you heard anything about the citizen from any politician whatever?

No! What remains to us are the bills that bankrupt us, the medical dictatorship, our children terrorised and unschooled… and above all the enslaving bill of a villainous, anti-national governance. A governance which will continue whichever of the present political actors reaches the cake of government, the post of Kapo over the camp that Romania has become.

To me it is clear that we must have the courage to take our destiny into our own hands.

To have the courage to write the laws which the present politicians will not, and/or have no time to, write.

That is why I believe, and want to believe to the very end, in the #LegeaSuveranității.

67. 7 September 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității amends art. 211 of the Criminal Code — “Trafficking in minors” — and brings within the scope …”

The #LegeaSuveranității amends art. 211 of the Criminal Code — “Trafficking in minors” — and brings within the criminal sphere the act of brokering or encouraging the adoption of children by any person who is not a public servant and whose official duties do not include the adoption of minors.

That, because for too long the children of Romania have been merchandise!

Because many have made fortunes from this occupation, which has become a mega-business; some have even become Presidents…

Because the future of Romania is not for sale.

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

In article 211, after paragraph (1), a new paragraph is inserted, para. (1¹), reading as follows:

“The brokering or encouragement of adoptions by persons who do not have the status of officials within the General Directorate for Social Assistance and Child Protection or the National Authority for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Children and Adoptions is punished by imprisonment from 7 to 15 years and the prohibition of the exercise of certain rights. (…)”

“Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal. (…)

Paragraph 3 of article 9 amends art. 211 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Trafficking in minors”, introducing after paragraph 1 a new paragraph, (1¹), criminalising the brokering or encouragement of adoptions by persons who do not have the status of officials of the General Directorate for Social Assistance and Child Protection or of the National Authority for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Children and Adoptions. As a reason for criminalising this act, account was taken of the situation of recent decades, in which the adoption of children has been seen by various natural and legal persons as a veritable act of commerce, thousands of children having thus been taken out of the country, losing their citizenship and no longer being capable of protection by the Romanian State — a fact which directly and gravely affects national sovereignty through the diminution of the population, the holder of sovereignty.”

The #LegeaSuveranității amends article 221 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Sexual corruption of minors”, criminalising the act of making available to minors under 14 any materials which explicitly depict sexuality.

By this amendment I have sought to criminalise any acts which, under the pretext of “sexual education”, destroy childhood and pervert the minds and souls of our children.

This action comes as a response to the concerted actions of the “progressives”, by which an attempt is made to sexualise childhood and, by implication, to present homosexual relations and the “ideology” of fluid gender from the tenderest ages.

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

In article 221, paragraph 4 is amended and shall read as follows:

“The inducing by an adult of a minor who has not reached the age of 14 to witness the commission of acts of an exhibitionist character, or performances or representations in which sexual acts of any nature are committed, and the making available to that minor of materials of a pornographic character or of content which explicitly depicts sexuality, are punished by imprisonment from one year to three years. (…)”

Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal. (…)

Paragraph 4 of Article 9 amends paragraph 4 of article 221 of the Criminal Code, raising from 13 to 14 the age below which the act of inducing a minor to witness the commission of acts of an exhibitionist character, or performances or representations in which sexual acts of any nature are committed, is punished. At the same time, the act of making available to a minor materials of a pornographic character or of content which explicitly depicts sexuality has also been criminalised. Account was taken of the need to preserve the innocence and the natural development of the minor in accordance with the moral norms generally accepted by society, up to an age at which the criminalised acts lose their dangerousness and are no longer such as to affect the psychological development of the minor. There has likewise been brought within the criminal sphere the act of making available to a minor any materials of a pornographic character or of content which explicitly depicts sexuality, having regard to the higher interest of the minor and to the negative impact upon the psyche of minors and upon their development of pornographic materials, or of content explicitly depicting sexuality, at tender ages.

69. 9 September 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității criminalises “the act of making available to children under the age of eigh…”

The #LegeaSuveranității criminalises “the act of making available to children under the age of eighteen any materials which promote departure from biological sexual identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality.”

Bringing this act within the criminal sphere is necessary in order to give concreteness and effectiveness to the amendment made by the Sovereignty Act to article 8 of Act 272 of 21 June 2004 on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child.

The amendment made to article 221 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Sexual corruption of minors”, I considered necessary having regard to the medium- and long-term effects of the criminalised act upon the development of the minor and to the irreparable psychological traumas it may cause him — acts which directly impair the development of generations that are healthy and capable of fully exercising their rights and their sovereignty.

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

“(5) In article 221, after paragraph (5), a new paragraph is inserted, para. (5¹), reading as follows:

“The act of making available to children under the age of eighteen any materials which promote departure from biological sexual identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality is punished by imprisonment from 1 year to 5 years.”

In article 221, paragraph (6) is amended and shall read as follows:

“The attempt at the offences provided for in paras. (1), (2), (2¹) and (5¹) is punishable.”

Paragraph 5 of Article 9 of the Sovereignty Act introduces a new paragraph into art. 221 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “Sexual corruption of minors”, and amends paragraph 6 of the same article. Paragraph 5¹ criminalises “the act of making available to children under the age of eighteen any materials which promote departure from biological sexual identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality”, having regard to the medium- and long-term effects upon the development of the minor and to the irreparable psychological traumas it may cause him — acts which directly impair the development of generations that are healthy and capable of fully exercising their rights and their sovereignty. Paragraph 6 is amended so as to criminalise the attempt at the criminalised act, having regard to the importance of the social value protected and to the gravity of impairing the development of the minor.

Paragraph 6 amends paragraph 6 of article 221 of the Criminal Code, criminalising also the attempt at the offence newly introduced in paragraph 5¹ of article 221 of the Criminal Code.”

70. 13 September 2021 — “Today we continue our presentation of #LegeaSuveranității. Today we shall present the amendment …”

Today we continue our presentation of the #LegeaSuveranității. Today we shall present the legislative amendment which must necessarily be adopted in order that any form of discrimination as a result of accepting or refusing a medical treatment or device may be prohibited and punished.

In other words, the Sovereignty Act brings within the criminal sphere, and punishes, any person who restricts the exercise of a person’s right or creates for that person a situation of fear, of social exclusion or of inferiority on the ground of refusing the vaccine, punishing any act of discrimination whose passive subjects (victims) are persons who refuse or do not wish to be vaccinated.

In order to attain our aim, we have amended the text of article 297, with the marginal heading “Abuse of office”, as follows:

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

Article 297 is amended and shall read as follows:

“(1) The act of a public servant who, in the exercise of his official duties, fails to perform an act or performs it in breach of the law with a view to obtaining an undue benefit and thereby causes damage or an injury to the rights or legitimate interests of a natural or legal person, is punished by imprisonment from 2 to 7 years and the prohibition of the right to hold public office.

The same penalty shall apply to the act of a public servant who, in the exercise of his official duties, restricts the exercise of a person’s right or creates for that person a situation of fear, of social exclusion or of inferiority on grounds of race, nationality, ethnic origin, language, religion, sex, sexual orientation, political affiliation, wealth, age, disability, acceptance or refusal of a medical treatment or device, non-contagious chronic illness, or HIV/AIDS, Covid-19 infection or the like.”

“Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal. (…)

Paragraph 7 amends article 297 of the Criminal Code — Abuse of office — bringing it into accord with Decisions 405/2016 and 392/2017, while at the same time criminalising in paragraph 2 the act of discriminating against any person, of “restricting the exercise of a person’s right or creating for that person a situation of fear, of social exclusion or of inferiority on the ground of acceptance or refusal of a medical treatment or device”. The need to criminalise this act arises from the recurrence in society in recent years of acts of negative discrimination through the restriction of Constitutional rights, in breach of the rights of the patient provided for in Act no. 46 of 21 January 2003 and in the Oviedo Convention, in respect of persons who have not accepted certain medical treatments which are optional under the legislation in force. Symmetrically, any act of discrimination as a result of accepting and undergoing certain medical treatments has also been criminalised.”

71. 14 September 2021 — On the liability of the public servant

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

The #LegeaSuveranității punishes the act of a public servant of applying any legal rules declared unconstitutional by Decision of the Constitutional Court of Romania. Of course, the amendment made by article 9 paragraph 8 of the Sovereignty Act to art. 297 of the Criminal Code — “Abuse of office” — is addressed principally to prosecutors and judges who deliberately ignore and fail to observe the Decisions of the Constitutional Court, this amendment being the only way of compelling the authorities and the magistrates to observe strictly the Decisions of that Court.

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

In article 297, after paragraph (2), a new paragraph is inserted, para. (3), reading as follows:

“(3) The act of a public servant of applying any legal rules declared unconstitutional by Decision of the Constitutional Court of Romania is punished by imprisonment from 7 to 10 years.”

“Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal. (…)

Paragraph 8 introduces a third paragraph into article 297 of the Criminal Code — Abuse of office — in which there has been criminalised any act of a public servant, or of a person assimilated thereto, of applying rules declared unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court. The amendment to the text of the criminal law was made with the purpose of strengthening respect for the rights of the Romanian citizen, and also of strengthening the force of the Decisions of the Constitutional Court by criminalising any act infringing them — all having as their ultimate purpose the strengthening of the rule of law and of the Constitutional regime in Romania, both of which are considered to be the very foundation of national sovereignty.”

72. 14 September 2021 — “Arafat says that the draft Emergency Ordinance concerning the ANSU and “Arafat’s army” is an attack on…”

Arafat says that the draft Emergency Ordinance concerning the ANSU and “Arafat’s army” is an attack upon him and upon the “System”.

QED: Arafat is part of the “System”! Probably he is even one of the System’s chiefs.

For the rest, it is allegedly “fake news”, although the text has existed since 2019 (Arafat dixit!), and although it is written by persons who know how a law is drafted in observance of Act 24/2000 on the norms of legislative technique for the drafting of normative acts. With the Constitution they are not so skilled… but what does the Constitution matter in a dictatorship — even a medical one?

For the rest, the medico-Nazis support compulsory vaccination, it being “a fairly real option”!!!

We have only two solutions left: the #LegeaSuveranității and the pitchfork & the axe!

Post scriptum: judging by the way the discussions are going and by the way the propagandists of the medical dictatorship refer to “anti-vaxxers” and to the danger they supposedly represent, it is very probable that we shall soon see the anti-system “voices” not merely censored on Facebook but thrust into re-education in the cellars of the System.

And do not forget: until I am placed in some re-education programme, during the period of enforced silence imposed by Sugar-Mountain’s censors, you can read me uncensored at https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat

73. 15 September 2021 — “#LegeaSuveranității extends the scope of the offence of Treason to any act …”

The #LegeaSuveranității extends the scope of the offence of Treason to any act of exercising a function of public dignity, or one entailing the exercise of State authority, by a Romanian citizen who has entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation or with agents thereof.

In this way an attempt is made to cover an inexplicable “omission” of the present criminal code, which does not punish persons who have links with, or who have been instrumentalised by, foreign powers and who reach public office or public dignities. What, one wonders, brought about this “omission”?

This amendment came about as a result of the suspicions hanging over Prime Sinister Cîțu, according to which he would be an agent of a foreign power — an act which, if true, would remain unpunished under the present Criminal Code. But not if the Sovereignty Act is swiftly adopted!

Shall we speak of Iohannis as well? Better not… not now, not here.

Here are the reasons which underlay the decision to make the following amendment to the Criminal Code:

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

In article 394, paragraph (1), a new letter is inserted, letter e), reading as follows:

“e) the exercise of a function of public dignity or one which entails the exercise of State authority.”

“Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal. (…)

Paragraph 9 introduces a new letter into article 394 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading Treason — letter e — which criminalises the act of a Romanian citizen of entering into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State, through the exercise of a function of public dignity or one which entails the exercise of State authority. Account was taken of the fact that the exercise of a function of public dignity, or of a function entailing the exercise of State authority, by the active subject of the offence of treason — namely by the Romanian citizen who has entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State — constitutes a danger to national sovereignty and to the security of the State. The exercise of such a function of public dignity, or of one entailing the exercise of State authority, constitutes a state of real and imminent danger to the constitutional and legal order in Romania, without there being any need for the existence of the means provided for in letters a to d of article 394 of the Criminal Code; for which reason, in defence of national sovereignty and of economic, financial, health and social security, it is necessary to criminalise this act precisely in order to avoid the consequences of the criminal actions of citizens who have entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof — the accession of such persons to such a function being the very aim pursued by the foreign powers and organisations or by their agents. Account was likewise taken of the fact that the offence of High treason, provided for and punished by article 398 of the Criminal Code, criminalises only acts committed by “the President of Romania or by another member of the Supreme Council of National Defence”, leaving outside the criminal sphere the acts committed by the other persons who exercise functions of public dignity or functions entailing the exercise of State authority.”

Arafat, the horseman of the Plandemic Apocalypse in Romania, officially announces to us the death of democracy and of civic rights on 15 September itself — the international day of the late democracy.

The “normality” of medical dictatorship and of transhumanism.

For us, the old ones who are still human beings, it has become clear:

Before the pitchforks and the axes, one last attempt is still needed:

The #LegeaSuveranității — the last chance to escape medical dictatorship, to save ourselves from the “Great Reset”!

Dragnea announces the founding of a new party: the Alliance for the Homeland

Certainly, it resembles the name of our party, the Coalition for the Nation.

Unfortunately, however, Dragnea said nothing about the #LegeaSuveranității, the popular legislative initiative of which he knew, having had the text of the Law for several weeks.

Dragnea said he had made several mistakes. He is right! To err, it is said, is human…

The trouble is that he perseveres in his mistakes.

77. 22 September 2021 — On treason and the undermining of the economy

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

The #LegeaSuveranității re-criminalises the “undermining of the national economy” by bringing it within the offence of “Treason” (art. 394 of the Criminal Code) and brings within the sphere of “High treason” (art. 398 of the Criminal Code) the act of the President of Romania of failing to give effect, within 10 days, to the Decisions of the Constitutional Court resolving conflicts of a constitutional nature.

Act no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows: (…)

In article 394, after paragraph (1), a new paragraph is inserted, para. (2), reading as follows:

“If the act provided for in paragraph 1 letter b has caused significant damage to the national economy, the penalty is life imprisonment or imprisonment from 15 to 25 years and the prohibition of certain rights.”

In article 398, after paragraph (1), a new paragraph is inserted, para. (2), reading as follows:

“There likewise constitutes an act of High treason, attracting the same penalty, the failure of the President of Romania to give effect to the Decisions of the Constitutional Court resolving conflicts of a constitutional nature, within 10 days of the communication of the operative part.”

“Article 9 amends Act no. 286/2009 — the Criminal Code — bringing the legislation in this matter into accord with the latest judgments of the Constitutional Court and with the legislative amendments introduced by this legislative proposal. (…)

Paragraph 9 introduces a new letter into article 394 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading Treason — letter e — which criminalises the act of a Romanian citizen of entering into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State, through the exercise of a function of public dignity or one which entails the exercise of State authority. Account was taken of the fact that the exercise of a function of public dignity, or of a function entailing the exercise of State authority, by the active subject of the offence of treason — namely by the Romanian citizen who has entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State — constitutes a danger to national sovereignty and to the security of the State. The exercise of such a function of public dignity, or of one entailing the exercise of State authority, constitutes a state of real and imminent danger to the constitutional and legal order in Romania, without there being any need for the existence of the means provided for in letters a to d of article 394 of the Criminal Code; for which reason, in defence of national sovereignty and of economic, financial, health and social security, it is necessary to criminalise this act precisely in order to avoid the consequences of the criminal actions of citizens who have entered into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof — the accession of such persons to such a function being the very aim pursued by the foreign powers and organisations or by their agents. Account was likewise taken of the fact that the offence of High treason, provided for and punished by article 398 of the Criminal Code, criminalises only acts committed by “the President of Romania or by another member of the Supreme Council of National Defence”, leaving outside the criminal sphere the acts committed by the other persons who exercise functions of public dignity or functions entailing the exercise of State authority.

Paragraph 10 introduces a new paragraph into article 398 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “High treason” — paragraph 2 — which institutes an aggravating circumstance in respect of the offence criminalised in paragraph 1, increasing the limits of the penalty for the act of entering into contact with a foreign power or organisation, or with agents thereof, for the purpose of suppressing or impairing the unity and indivisibility, the sovereignty or the independence of the State, through economic or political undermining or the undermining of the defence capacity of the State, if that act has caused significant damage to the national economy. As the text of paragraph 1 itself states, the criminalised act is such as to endanger national sovereignty; the increase of the limits of the penalty for the grave consequences of the act has the purpose of serving as a means of dissuasion for the perpetrators, all the more so since the perpetrators may be persons holding important positions within the Romanian State.

Paragraph 11 introduces a new paragraph into article 398 of the Criminal Code, with the marginal heading “High treason” — a paragraph which brings within the sphere of high treason also the act of the President of failing to give effect to the Decisions of the Constitutional Court resolving conflicts of a constitutional nature, within 10 days of the communication of the operative part. The need to criminalise this act lies in the importance of the value protected, namely the importance of the immediate implementation of the provisions of the Decisions of the Constitutional Court, and in the absence of any means of coercion or of any sanction against a President who infringes the Constitutional order and ignores the judgments by which the Constitution is interpreted with a view to giving effect to the fundamental act — such acts being such as to affect national sovereignty in a fundamental manner.”

78. 27 September 2021 — “We are in a state of #LEGITIMĂAPĂRARE in the face of a fascistoid regime!”

We are in a state of #LEGITIMĂAPĂRARE — legitimate self-defence — in the face of a fascistoid regime!

The “Green Certificate”, and by implication compulsory vaccination, are the limits beyond which we can NO LONGER allow this traitorous and anti-national government to go!!

We must defend ourselves against the dictatorial State and the multinationals which are suffocating us!

1. From this month we shall NO LONGER PAY THE UTILITY BILLS!

Neither the State nor the companies can do anything to us!

Under Emergency Ordinance no. 70/2020, the operators of the electricity and natural gas transmission and distribution networks, and those of the water and sewerage systems, have no right to disconnect any customer from the networks for the duration of the state of alert; the same obligation is imposed on sanitation operators.

Either they take us out of the state of emergency, or they take measures to reduce the cost of the bills!

Although I propose that we #NuPlătim — that we do not pay — until they renounce both the state of alert and the absurd prices for a country in which gas is extracted and which is a major producer of electricity!

2. Every day, from 18.00, WE SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICITY AND THE GAS COMPLETELY, FOR AT LEAST ONE HOUR!

The National distribution System will strongly feel these sudden falls in consumption… and the oppressive System will have to give way!

3. We do not buy (or buy as little as possible) from the large shop chains!

4. We do not take away and do not order home, through delivery riders or the like, from restaurants which impose green certificates and which restrict the access of the unvaccinated!

7. We do not accept to be divided: we shall NEVER ENTER INTO CONFLICT WITH VACCINATED OR UNVACCINATED PERSONS as a result of the choice they have made!

THE FASCISTOID and DICTATORIAL STATE OF THE IOHANNIS REGIME!

The next move, should the governors “not understand” the message:

The withdrawal in cash of all the sums of money which we, the unvaccinated, hold in banks! Much or little, all the money will have to be withdrawn!

In any case there are already rumours that within 6 months you will enjoy online banking and access to your own money only if you have a green certificate, only if you have been vaxxed.

79. 28 September 2021 — “We are lied to, terrorised, humiliated, discriminated against and divided. All of us, the 70%, we who …”

We are lied to, terrorised, humiliated, discriminated against and divided. All of us, the 70%, we the many!

We discuss and argue as though we still had to convince ourselves of the obvious.

We beg for our legitimate and lawful rights, although we know we shall not be heard: they care neither for us nor for our constitutional rights and freedoms.

They do not care about the Constitution… they care only about power… and money!

1. For 5 days we shall buy the bare minimum. THE MINIMUM! We shall hold out and we shall also make savings, so necessary in the terrible months to come.

2. When we buy, we buy only from small shops, not from the multinational chains, not from the malls!

3. We shall save our money. In cash! Not by keeping it in banks owned by foreign capital. We shall need savings, we shall need cash!

4. We do not buy food from those in the hospitality trade who support the #CertificatulVerde; we boycott those who humiliate us and abusively discriminate against us — us, who until yesterday were their customers, the supporters of their businesses!

5. We do not order food from restaurants which discriminate against us!

6. We do not pay the utility bills until 1 November 2021: they cannot cut off our supply until that date!

7. Every day at 18.00 we switch off the lights completely for at least 45 minutes in our homes, at the fuse box! In this way the National electricity distribution system will be subjected to enormous stress, and they will be forced to listen to us. And to reduce the price of utilities.

8. We go out in force to protest, in every town, in the central squares!

9. We shall not accept to be divided! We shall not quarrel with our neighbour on grounds of vaccination or non-vaccination! We avoid personal conflicts: our only enemy is the dictatorial State!

10. We support and sign the #LegeaSuveranității. Soon it will be published in the Official Gazette and the signature-gathering campaign will begin.

Limiting our purchases will reduce the volume of VAT collected by the State — the State’s most important budgetary revenue!

It is a lawful form of #GrevăFiscală, a tax strike; a form without risk, but one which will put pressure on the State. We shall strike them where it hurts most: in the money!

Buying from small shops will give a breath of air to small Romanian traders and will strike at the multinationals!

The money saved and kept in cash will also put pressure on the banking system, which behaves like a clan of lawful usurers. The time will come when we shall also withdraw our savings from the banks…

We shall not buy from, nor order from, restaurants which support the discriminatory measures: thus they will be forced to reject the measures of medical apartheid.

Not paying the bills over the next 2 months will force the suppliers to look for ways of reducing the cost of electricity, heating and gas.

Switching off the current completely will put pressure on the National energy system, which will force the authorities to lend an ear to the voice of the people.

We go out to protest! Like the Italians, the French, the Australians, the Spaniards, the Swiss, the Americans… like all the oppressed of this world!

Refusing to enter into disputes with fellow citizens who hold other convictions will prevent the emergence of conflicts between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated, as happened in Paris or in Thessaloniki.

We support and sign the Sovereignty Act, the only lawful way of bringing justice, dignity and prosperity to Romania. Faced with a political class that is inept and incapable, infiltrated by traitors and securitate men, the Romanian people — the sole holder of national Sovereignty — must take its fate into its own hands and write its own laws.

As I told you yesterday, we are in a state of #LegitimăApărare in the face of a fascistoid regime!

The “Green Certificate”, and by implication compulsory vaccination, are the limits beyond which we can NO LONGER allow this traitorous and anti-national government to go!!

We must defend ourselves against the dictatorial State and the multinationals which are suffocating us!

THE FASCISTOID and DICTATORIAL STATE OF THE IOHANNIS REGIME!

Four effective remedies against the fascist virus

83. 30 September 2021 — “Many of the misfortunes that strike Romanians are caused by the way in which, gradually,…”

“Many of the misfortunes that strike Romanians are caused by the way in which, gradually, out of thoughtlessness or out of ill will, the officers of the State have renounced sovereignty — without asking us, but in our name. That is how the forests go to the dogs. And the riches of the subsoil. And the gas of the Black Sea. And the labour force. The only guarantee we can have of a change for the better is the regaining of sovereignty. That objective is, quite literally, in your hands. Sign for sovereignty!

Of course, we are part of the European Union. But we know very well that we are not treated as equals. Rather as a poor relation. Although we are among the richest States of Europe. The solidarity of this organisation is in competition with the natural tendency of the stronger States to take advantage of the weakness of the others. In order to attain their objectives, countries like Romania are induced to renounce, one by one, attributes of sovereignty. In the name of globalism. As though globalisation itself — a process which can no longer be stopped — were in competition with the right of States to administer and organise themselves as they see fit, while of course observing the commitments and rules they have assumed. What we are witnessing, in fact, throughout Europe is a disguised plunder. The plundering, on a scale hitherto unheard of, of rich States such as Romania.

This process could not have existed without the guilty complicity of the traitors of the nation perched in decision-making offices. What better explanation can be given? Why does the Parliament of Romania not put a stop to this infernal mechanism, by which the country is plundered more thoroughly, more systematically and more mercilessly than it ever was under Ottoman or Habsburg domination? Why does the president elected by the citizens — whatever his name may be — not step forward like a man, chest out, to oppose this process, at the end of which an entire nation surrenders and dies? Why do the senior representatives of the secret services give every sign of working for the benefit of powers against which they ought to be protecting us? How is it that, in only 30 years, our generation has managed to abandon the battlefield for which our ancestors shed their blood, leaving it to fate or, rather, handing it over turnkey to those whose only objective is to squeeze the riches of this land for their own benefit?

The history of this capitulation cannot, of course, be written in a few words. And it is more complex than it seems. We cannot simply accuse our European partners of acting to drain the energies of this country, incapable of defending itself. The European States are themselves confronted with an enormous challenge: the ever-growing pressure of the multinationals, which are gradually and successfully substituting themselves for State entities. This process tends to become general. Only that the powerful States of Europe know how to defend their sovereignty. They know how to protect their interests. They know how to put a brake on the multinationals when necessary. Such is not the case of Romania.

For all these reasons, to which many others could be added, a few persons — myself among them — are launching, using a constitutional provision and beginning this very day, a citizens’ initiative at national level. The Constitution allows us to do this: to draft a normative act, to ask our compatriots for signatures and to oblige the Parliament of Romania to debate and adopt it. And, naturally, we have entitled this citizens’ initiative “the Sovereignty Act”. It is a draft normative act which, if adopted, will protect us in the long term from most of the acts of plunder to which Romania is presently subjected. It guarantees us stability. Durability. Independence. The freedom to take cardinal decisions in our own interest. It defends and protects our riches. It allows us to turn them to account for our own benefit and not for the benefit of others. Sign this citizens’ initiative; oblige Parliament thereby to take the law into debate and to vote it; put pressure by your signature on the president of Romania to promulgate “the Sovereignty Act”.

The Legislative Council has analysed the provisions of this draft normative act, has found that they observe the spirit and the letter of the Constitution, and has given it the green light for the whole process to be carried out — beginning with the gathering of signatures and ending with the adoption of the new law in Parliament. Today the primary documents were published in the Official Gazette. In every town in Romania, groups of citizens supporting this initiative begin this very day to appeal to you to sign in favour of “the Sovereignty Act”. The sooner we gather your signatures, the sooner we centralise the forms arriving from all over the country, the sooner shall we have “the Sovereignty Act” debated, voted and promulgated. It will be an instrument which all parties and all rulers will be obliged to take into account. An instrument which will keep the economic assassins at a distance. And, why not, an instrument with whose help we shall be able to tell the difference, when we elect our new leaders, between the bad and the good. Between traitors and patriots. Sign, and give the green light to this patriotic initiative.”

85. 2 October 2021 — “On the authorities’ war against us: “#NuLuămPrizonieri””

On the authorities’ war against us: “#NuLuămPrizonieri” — we take no prisoners

From tomorrow we go into Lockdown again. Nothing seems to have any logic: contradictory medical measures, states of quasi-normality alternating with lockdowns worthy of Nazi ghettos. Nothing seems to make any sense… and yet!

There is a logic in all of it: it is the logic of war!

It is extremely clear to me at this moment that the “authorities” consider themselves to be in a state of war with their own populations. And the strategists of this War also have strategies which they apply in the war against us: they are the classic strategies of war.

One of the oldest strategies of war is that of harrying the enemy, of continually taking him by surprise.

The succession of periods of “normality” and periods of lockdown, though devoid of any logic or medical sense, is not made in our favour, to give us periods of “respite”… By no means!

The alternation of open and closed has only the purpose of weakening and wearing down the resistance of their adversary, that is to say ours. This alternation has the same effect that successive freezing and thawing has upon the hardest materials: first cracks appear and in the end they give way, they crumble.

“Feign a surprise attack and observe their discipline. Order a sudden attack and observe their doubts. Make a hasty attack” (quotation from the Methods of Sima Yi)

Although it seems paradoxical, in this veritable war a state of permanent lockdown would have been more favourable to us than to them: first we would have discovered methods of evading it, then of undermining it. Moreover, a state of constant pressure upon the population would invariably have led to the accumulation of that tension and, in the end, to an explosion of such proportions as would have blown away those who wish to keep us under the lid.

But as it is, when freedom is doled out to you in portions, followed by seclusion, this game of coming and going between extremes has as its purpose the controlled release of pressure while keeping the population in tension… and at the same time eroding its resistance.

“Raise deception to the rank of an art”, said Sun Tzu in The Art of War, and Sima Yi said:

“Thwart their strategy. Seize their thoughts. Take advantage of their fears…

Endanger them in order to observe their fears.”

Hence the strategic importance of the principal weapon of the “authorities”, of our only enemy in this war: PROPAGANDA.

Hence the importance of frightening us, of maintaining a state of permanent terror!

“A lie repeated a thousand times remains a lie, but a lie repeated a million times becomes truth.” So said Joseph Goebbels.

False information is no longer accidental. It has become the rule, to the point that truth has begun to be catalogued as falsehood.

Official lies have been raised to the rank of dogmas, of “indisputable realities”; those who issue them are infallible, and the “official truths” must be accepted unconditionally: they must be believed!

The “State dogmas” (covidian and vaxxinist) must be believed and followed without a murmur…

Observance of official decrees and decisions has become an act of faith.

Hence the division between believers and unbelievers, between the faithful and the infidels.

But this too is a strategy of war…

“Force them to contradict one another”, said the Chinese — that is to say, DIVIDE ET IMPERA!

The division of the population into vaxxed and unvaxxed, between the fearful and the unafraid, between the “prudent” and the “imprudent”, between the submissive and the insubordinate… the hatred and the distrust between the two parts of society: all these are the paths of their success in limiting the rights of all alike, their victory over all of us, whatever our “beliefs”.

And the final argument that we are facing a war: the assault of the “authorities” upon our children in the schools and in the media!

The winning of our children, their persuasion and education in the spirit of the “official dogmas”, will be the sign that the “authorities” have won the war — even though we may still be fighting!

The war for the “Great Reset” is being fought in the minds and hearts of our children!

Did not the propagandist Prelipceanu say that “school ought to rid children of their parents”?

Well, that must not happen!

We must refuse to let the minds and souls of our children be conquered by the institutionalised lie of the “New Normality”!

We must understand that we are in the midst of a war and that the “authorities” “take no prisoners”. Now we can also understand the true meaning of the photograph of the present prime minister with the inscription: “#NuLuămPrizonieri”.

That is why it is essential to accept reality and to enter into the logic of this manifest war.

Do not forget: in love and war all is permitted!

That is why I have proposed to you a strategy which the adversary least expects: #Boicot and the #LegeaSuveranității!

For the element of surprise is the key to success!

1. Take part in the protests in force! All of you, go out today into Piața Victoriei and Piața Universității!

2. Do not submit to the unconstitutional restrictions!

3. Do not let yourselves be divided; do not enter into sterile polemics with those who believe the official dogmas — you will not convince them, they will convince themselves!

4. Do not accept to be discriminated against! And above all:

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

#Libertate! I say it directly, while I still can here, and I urge you, first of all, to fight for your Freedom: go out into the street! And, as usual, I urge you to #Boicot! For…

I do not know how others are… how they can say almost anything, at any time; but I, more and more often and with less and less appearance of justification, am blocked on Facebook!

A conditional freedom and, evidently, under surveillance.

For the post of 2 October (a partial screenshot of which I leave below) I received a week of virtual imprisonment. And a further 3 MONTHS’ ban on going live (3 months which come after another month and a half of ban)… that is, exactly as long as the campaign for gathering signatures for the #LegeaSuveranității will last… a coincidence, of course!

I do not know what I say that is so bad for them, but what is certain is that they do not like at all what I say, or how I say it.

And that legitimises our undertaking all the more!

I shall not stop: I shall go on telling that truth which hurts them!

What matters is that for the moment we are together. I could comment neither on Cîțu’s reduction to dust (may he at least like what he has become!), nor on the little Facebook apocalypse… but we have done the work:

The Sovereignty Act is more and more present in the consciousness of the Romanian. Sign it!

And I nearly “forgot”… on Thursday, together with 42 other citizens, I submitted to the NATIONAL AUTHORITY FOR CITIZENSHIP an application FOR THE WITHDRAWAL OF ROMANIAN CITIZENSHIP from the said Raed Arafat.

under the provisions of art. 32 para. (1) read together with art. 25 para. (1) letter d), final sentence, of Act no. 21/1991, republished and as subsequently amended, we submit the following

NOTIFICATION FOR THE WITHDRAWAL OF ROMANIAN CITIZENSHIP

from the said Raed Arafat, currently holding the office of Secretary of State and Head of the Department for Emergency Situations (DSU) within the Ministry of the Interior,

for the intentional infringement of the provisions of art. 20 para. (5) of Act no. 21/1991, republished and as subsequently amended, read together with art. 16 paras. (1) to (3) and art. 53 of the Constitution of Romania, for the following reasons

In fact, on 04.10.2021, the said Raed Arafat, in his capacity as “Commander of the action”, issued Order no. 9490 on the institution of certain measures necessary at the level of public health units with beds for combating the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, whereby he ordered the suspension, at the level of hospital units throughout the country, of admissions for a period of 30 days for surgical interventions and for other treatments and medical investigations, with the exception of emergencies, pregnant women requiring obligatory check-ups, patients with chronic oncological conditions and patients requiring dialysis procedures.

In that context, the said Raed Arafat stated at a press conference that he had been told — without specifying by whom — that the Order in question need not be published in the Official Gazette, and then acknowledged that the document does not observe the Constitution: “It is an order which is already published on all the media sites and everywhere. It is not among the orders which we were told must be published in the Official Gazette. Besides, it is an order of management and triage in a disaster situation and, I am very sorry, if disaster medicine is not in accordance with the Constitution, I, as a doctor, until I am told to stop BECAUSE OF THE CONSTITUTION, must respect the saving of life and the principles I have learned in this field.”

It is worth mentioning that Raed Arafat’s statements also came in reply to the declarations of the Ombudsman, Renate Weber, who acted of her own motion, stating in a press release that the right of citizens to medical assistance in health units cannot be restricted, given that for them there exists no option other than to undergo consultations and medical procedures in the private sector. Moreover, the Ombudsman stated that where the suspension of admissions for surgical interventions is effected by an administrative act (an order) issued by an administrative body without legal personality (the Department for Emergency Situations), or by order of the minister of health, this is unconstitutional and therefore unlawful, in so far as it permits the ordering of measures restricting the exercise of the right of persons to benefit from medical assistance in State health units.

In the face of this situation, it is evident that the said Raed Arafat, by issuing Order no. 9490/04.10.2021 and by the statement he made, consciously and deliberately — that is, intentionally — infringed the following provisions of the Constitution of Romania:

“In Romania, observance of the Constitution, of its supremacy and of the laws is obligatory.” — art. 1 para. (5);

“(1) National sovereignty belongs to the Romanian people, who exercise it through their representative bodies, constituted by free, periodic and fair elections, and by referendum. (2) No group and no person may exercise sovereignty in their own name.” — art. 2 paras. (1) and (2);

“(1) Citizens enjoy the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Constitution and in other laws, and have the obligations laid down therein. (2) No one is above the law.” — art. 16 paras. (1) and (2);

“(1) The right to life and the right to the physical and mental integrity of the person are guaranteed. (2) No one may be subjected to torture or to any kind of inhuman or degrading punishment or treatment.” — art. 22 paras. (1) and (2);

“Individual liberty and the security of the person are inviolable.” — art. 23 para. (1);

“The right to free movement, within the country and abroad, is guaranteed. The law establishes the conditions for the exercise of this right.” — art. 25 para. (1);

“(1) The public authorities respect and protect intimate, family and private life. (2) A natural person has the right to dispose of himself, provided he does not infringe the rights and freedoms of others, public order or good morals.” — art. 26;

“(1) The right to the protection of health is guaranteed. (2) The State is obliged to take measures to ensure public hygiene and health.” — art. 34 paras. (1) and (2);

“(1) The exercise of certain rights or freedoms may be restricted only by law and only if necessary, as the case may be, for: the defence of national security, of public order, health or morals, of the rights and freedoms of citizens; the conduct of criminal investigations; the prevention of the consequences of a natural calamity, of a disaster or of a particularly serious catastrophe. (2) The restriction may be ordered only if it is necessary in a democratic society. The measure must be proportionate to the situation which gave rise to it, must be applied without discrimination and without impairing the existence of the right or the freedom.” — art. 53.

In the light of these provisions of our fundamental Law, we, the undersigned, ask you to assess the intrinsic content of the manifestly unconstitutional measures adopted by the said Raed Arafat through the above-mentioned Order, and the content of the defiant statement given to the press concerning the Constitution, as incontestable proof of the fact that, 23 years after acquiring Romanian citizenship, the said Raed Arafat:

has no link with and no belonging to the Romanian State, as Romanian citizenship is defined by art. 1 para. (1) of Act no. 21/1991, republished and as subsequently amended;

undertakes and supports actions against the legal order and national security through his conduct, actions and attitude — a matter which contravenes another condition essential to the granting of Romanian citizenship, namely that provided for in art. 8 para. (1) letter b) of the aforementioned law;

although he knows the Constitution of Romania — a condition essential to the granting of Romanian citizenship to a foreign citizen, provided for in art. 8 para. (1) letter g) of the same law — he defies and deliberately infringes it;

has infringed the oath he swore in solemn sitting under art. 20 para. (5) of the aforementioned law, on the occasion of receiving Romanian citizenship, namely:

“I swear to be devoted to the homeland and to the Romanian people, to defend the national rights and interests, to observe the Constitution and the laws of Romania.”;

has infringed the provisions of art. 35 of the same law: “Persons to whom Romanian citizenship has been granted in accordance with the law have all the rights and freedoms, and the obligations, provided for by the Constitution and by the laws of the country for Romanian citizens”;

believes himself to be above the Constitution of Romania.

From a reading of the legal texts mentioned, we conclude that the retention of Romanian citizenship by persons who acquired it upon application is indissolubly linked to the fulfilment of the same conditions laid down by law for its granting, namely observance of the Constitution and of the laws of the country.

We ask you to take note of the fact that, by his attitude, actions and statements in his capacity as Secretary of State and Head of the Department for Emergency Situations (DSU) within the Ministry of the Interior, the said Raed Arafat endangers national security, indubitably inciting disobedience to the constitutional and legal provisions of the Romanian State, the provisions of art. 25 para. (1) letter d) of Act no. 21/1991, republished and as subsequently amended, being applicable.

Under art. 25 para. (1) letter d) of Act no. 21/1991, republished and as subsequently amended, “Romanian citizenship may be withdrawn from a person who (…) d) (…) has committed other acts which endanger national security.”

Thus, we the undersigned consider inadmissible and downright unpardonable defiance the manner in which the said Raed Arafat spoke at the press conference of 6 October 2021 about the fundamental Law in relation to emergency medicine, and also his repeated infringement of the provisions of the Constitution through the successive acts issued by him since the beginning of the pandemic — such as the recent Order no. 9490/04.10.2021, which he did not even publish in the Official Gazette because he was not told that he had to, even though he too must know and observe the laws of this country, all the more so in his capacity as Secretary of State and Head of the Department for Emergency Situations (DSU) within the Ministry of the Interior.

We draw attention to the fact that the deliberate defiance and infringement of the Constitution by the said Raed Arafat must be assessed in relation to his office as Secretary of State and Head of the Department for Emergency Situations (DSU) within the Ministry of the Interior, and not in relation to the status of an ordinary citizen, since it is in that first-rank capacity which he occupies in the architecture of the Romanian State that he persistently and repeatedly disobeys the Constitution and the laws of the country (including the provisions of Act no. 21/1991, republished and as subsequently amended, referred to in the present notification).

Now, by his attitude, actions and statements in his capacity as Secretary of State and Head of the Department for Emergency Situations (DSU) within the Ministry of the Interior, the said Raed Arafat indubitably incites disobedience to the constitutional and legal provisions of the Romanian State, thereby endangering national security.

In conclusion, we the undersigned have submitted this notification under the provisions of art. 32 para. (1), which confers upon any person who has knowledge of the existence of a ground for the withdrawal of Romanian citizenship the right to notify the Citizenship Commission within the National Authority for Citizenship; by which we respectfully ask you, on the basis of art. 14 para. (1), to proceed to verify and establish the fulfilment of the conditions laid down by law for the issuing of the order withdrawing Romanian citizenship from the said Raed Arafat, having regard to the applicability in this case of the provisions of art. 25 para. (1) letter d), final sentence.

We reserve the right to return with clarifications and additions to this notification up to the date which you will set for the examination of this notification for the withdrawal of Romanian citizenship from the said Raed Arafat.

the statement of the said Raed Arafat of 6 October at the press conference held after the Government sitting, when he replied to the Ombudsman concerning the Order suspending non-urgent admissions and surgical interventions and concerning its legal aspects;

Order no. 9490/04.10.2021 — unpublished in the Official Gazette.

The application was signed by Zară Ovidiu-Dumitru, Av. Deseagă Cristian-Alexandru, Popa Ioan-Aurelian, av. Dume Alexandra-Mihaela, Av.

The people are always right! Even if they were mistaken in the choice made… they are still right: vox populi, vox Dei!

The order in which a political class and a government disregard the Will of 70% of the population of their own country is called TYRANNY!

A press which takes part in the tyranny is not a press: it is merely an organ of propaganda. It is merely an organ of terror and repression! It is a Disgrace!

Concretely: if the people have chosen not to be vaccinated — whether or not they made the right choice — the political class must find solutions in relation to the decision of the people, not in relation to the convictions of the political class.

Therefore the democratic solution is not the discrimination against and the blackmailing of the 70%, but the finding of alternative solutions in relation and in response to the decision of the people!

We, the people, are obliged to oblige them to respect us and our decisions too — we who sent them into Parliament and into the Government, at our own expense, to represent us, not to impose upon us solutions foreign to our will.

We, the people, are the legitimate Holders of Sovereignty; in the present circumstances, we are obliged to write our own laws!

95. 29 December 2021 — On the national antibodies

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

On national antibodies and globalist pathogens

The comparison between the social body and the human body is as old as the world.

That is why today I shall not speak about medicine, viruses or medical treatments — subjects on which many will hasten to say that I have neither the competence nor the standing to express myself — but shall speak to you only about the social body in which I myself am a humble and insignificant limb.

And I shall speak to you about the greatest and most agreeable surprise life has offered me: the resilience, the conservatism and the exceptional quality of the people to which I belong. And I say it without exaltation, without falling into the trap of mythologising our history or glorifying our culture — both absolutely remarkable, but nowhere near the measure of the deeds of valour and of the intellectual and moral stature we have proved on a mass scale over the last two years.

In the brief analysis I shall attempt to sketch, we must start from one observation: if the year 2020 was an altogether “special” year, in the worst possible sense, through the appearance of the pandemic and of dictatorial measures on a global scale, the year 2021 was an altogether “exceptional” year through the imposition of vaccination worldwide and through the establishment, on a planetary scale, of a medical apartheid. The restriction of the right to work, to move about and to speak freely became “politically correct” practices across the planet. It should be noted that although we have had incomparably more lethal epidemics throughout the history of mankind, NEVER — I underline it once more, NEVER — have such measures been taken. Whence the reasonable suspicion (for Romanians, accustomed to the traps of history) that something else is at work here.

Until now the Romanians have passed impeccably, exemplarily, through these two great examinations of universal history. In 2020, after the first two weeks of shock and horror caused by the tanks in the streets and by institutionalised media terror, the Romanians began to do what they know best: to slip between abuses and stupidity, to dodge the blunt edges of anti-democratic laws, to make fun of the pandemic and of the arafats, to talk in corners. Timidly, to demonstrate as well. Timidly, but enough for the government not to dare tighten the screw too hard. The same in 2021: once the jabbing campaign had begun, the Romanians adapted — many were “vaccinated” beside the arm, others “fell ill” for the nth time, but most of them refused! They did not “swallow it”, as the saying goes, they did not take the covidist propaganda, the covidist hectoring. And it has been proved that they were right: we are the people in Europe (and probably among the very few in the world!) least injected and least infected at this date. And that proves courage and intelligence. To succeed in opposing the global derangement with the doggedness and at the same time the lightness and elegance with which the Romanians have done it — that proves native intellectual excellence.

Once again, I am in no way exaggerating, and this finding of the intellectual excellence of the Romanian people is given by the fact that we Romanians, in our immense majority, wherever in the world we may find ourselves, have reacted in the same way: we have firmly rejected — and with good reason, as will be proved more and more with every day that passes — the covidist propaganda. Wherever in the world we may be, in our majority we have reacted the same: from the United States to Vietnam, from England to Italy, from Sweden to Australia… whatever the methods of propaganda, of terror or of state blackmail, everywhere we have remained just as reticent and just as resistant to lies and indoctrination.

For yes, these much-blamed generations — of the “decreed” children, of the “pro generation”, even of the “snowflake generation” — without distinction, all the post-December generations have shown an incredible resistance to the CoVidist-Globalist derangement and blackmail. I have seen firm “denialist” attitudes and irremediably “conspiracist” opinions from venerable people of 70 and over to youngsters still on the university benches, from university professors to unskilled workers, from doctors of medicine to authorities in economics or poets and artists. All of them, whatever their age or their training, whatever their condition or social status — the majority of Romanians display a common sense and a sense of direction that is almost “instinctive”, and which constitutes the argument and the proof of our survival as a people throughout history.

Our social body is fighting, really fighting, even if perhaps not visibly, perhaps not manifestly and explicitly as many of us would have wished, but it is fighting with effective means against the pathogens which have infested the leadership of our country. Often hidden beneath the mask of indifference, the passivity and the absence of reaction to covidist propaganda and to state terror, the tacit and implicit refusal to submit — demonstrated beyond any possibility of denial by the lowest rate of injection in Europe — these too are a proof of the excellence of our people.

And because, even so, we could not have resisted this long without a coherent and valid immune system, I must recall those who have constituted genuine national antibodies against the pathogens which have infested the leadership of our country. For it must be said that, in spite of the generalised securist metastasis and of the globalist viruses imposed from outside at the head of Romania for decades on end, we are still resisting as a people. And we are resisting BECAUSE of them, because of our “antibodies”!

They are many, some known, others unknown! But all of them having, in their place, their decisive role in maintaining this state of resistance in the face of the globalist and anti-traditional plague. The only thing I feared when I began to write was where to begin the enumeration, for each of those below ought to and could be in first place…

Shall I begin with the judges of the Constitutional Court who dismantled, as far as it was possible, the dictatorial legislative measures? And who, a few days ago, replied with dignity and courage to the self-appointed chiefs at the EU and the CJEU, telling them that Romania still has a Constitution… that it is still sovereign? I know only that I must thank them for existing!

Or shall I begin with the Ombudsman who, being a lady and in spite of her frail state of health, fought fearlessly like a true knight of justice in defence of her people. I thank her for being!

Or shall I begin with those few people in the press who, marginalised as they were, went on telling the truth at any price? I thank them for being as they are!

Or shall I begin with the judges of the Courts of Appeal who struck down the abusive Government Decisions? I thank them and I ask them to go on being as they are!

Or perhaps I ought to have begun with the hierarchs, the abbots and the priests who constitute the armature of this immune system — impeccable, upright and coherent with the fibre of the Romanian people whatever the leadership of the Church may say and however it may say it. I admit that probably the most beautiful surprise and the greatest joy for me was to discover the Church as I wished to find it in these days of trial: the Church standing clearly apart from the submission and the capitulation of the other sister Churches, whether we speak of the Russian or the Greek one, or whether we compare it to the absolutely conformist-globalist attitude of the Catholic Church. I thank them and I pray the Lord to give them according to their heart and their courage!

Shall I begin with the doctors who assisted the sick and supplied them with medicines forbidden by officialdom? Or who agreed to “vaccinate beside the arm” those who did not wish to do it but who were compelled to have administered to them medical treatments not “freely consented to”. I thank them, and may God reward them a thousandfold!

Or… in fact, no. Now I know that I ought to have begun with you, the reader of these lines, the one who went out into the street, to every protest, at every risk, bearing enormous fines! The one who enrolled in the “Army of Sovereignty” and who gathered signatures for the #SovereigntyAct in the cold, in every condition! Or who, even remaining only online, was not afraid to tell the truth, to unmask the abjection, to expose yourself publicly under your real name as a sentinel of your people. It is with you that I ought to have begun, with those who, though “anonymous” and without any kind of protection offered either by a “guild” or by fame, have not ceased to fight for your right and the right of those around you to be HUMAN BEINGS, FREE HUMAN BEINGS! I thank you for being, and I hope that God will grant you the victory you deserve!

To all these “national antibodies” I say one single thing: I am proud to be your compatriot and your contemporary.

With such an “immune system” we shall yet witness, as a people, the fall of a few empires and the scattering of many follies and derangements!

97. 15 January 2022 — On a day of sovereignty

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

And what if 15 January, the Day of Romanian Culture, what if Eminescu’s day were to become, from this year on, THE DAY OF NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY?

We have many National Holidays: Days of Independence, of the Great and of the Little Union… nearly all of them days which invariably celebrate the influence and the effects of the policies of the great powers upon our national history! I shall not go into detail… you know them!

Why then should we not also have a Day of Sovereignty?

And if we were to declare a Day of Sovereignty… when should it be celebrated?

Why 15 January? Because the essence and the continuity of a people are its culture, its faith and its language. Nothing can be done against a people that has a cultural and a cultic identity! Any addition is like oil poured into a glass of water. It is added, but it does not mix. Because Eminescu was, and would still be today, a sovereigntist! Because Eminescu is the symbol of Romanian sovereigntism!

That is why the chief adversary of the globalists and the federalists, the first guardian of Romania and of Romanianness, is Romanian tradition — a tradition which gathers into one sheaf the language, the faith, the culture and the customs. In a word, Romanianness, such as it may still be defined in these days… And the enemy of the globalists is Eminescu himself — symbol of the Romanian language and of Romanianness — and the Romanian language itself: subjects and matters marginalised, systematically removed from the school curricula. Which will soon become “taboo”.

That is why it is no accident that the first institutions attacked by the artisans of the Great Reset were the school and the Church. Why? Because there lies the foundation of any people. Because it is there that language, culture and cult are transmitted — the defining elements of a people! That is why, over the last two years, the most affected, through direct measures apparently impossible to understand and without any medical justification, have been the school and the Church. All of it was thrown online, into the “virtual”…

children who have forgotten how to socialise, who no longer know how to relate to one another using a language spoken fluently and coherently, who are no longer in contact with the minimal elements of culture which they used to receive from a school already systematically battered over the last twenty years.

The faithful, who have lost the habit of the direct and unmediated connection — unmediated by a screen — with the grace you find only in the Real Presence of the spirit in the non-time of the cult, of the rite. Only in the consecrated place, only in church.

When in history have you ever heard of both schools and places of worship being closed everywhere and at the same time in the world? When? I will tell you! Never! Not during the Second World War, not during the First World War… or during the Great Plague of the fourteenth century, or Caragea’s Plague (1812–1814), and not during the Spanish Flu either (1918–1920)! And do you believe this is by chance?

The measure of purchasing aberrant quantities of experimental medicines by the Romanian state and the de facto obligation to administer them to all citizens and children under the sanction of being stripped of their fundamental rights… that too is the work of the “wise men” of the Great Reset, imposed by the federalist globalists at the helm of the EU. From these measures, unprecedented in history, to the segregation of over 50% of the population of Romania there was but one step. Social division, the programmatic and dogmatised hatred which the vaccinated were incited to bear against the unvaccinated… that too is an element of denationalisation, a policy directed against the nation which moves in exactly the same direction.

Nor is the banning, through imported laws, of the most ordinary customs — the raising and slaughtering of pigs, the prohibition or limitation of certain agricultural crops, the domestic making of drinks or foods. All of it has not merely the sense of the seizure by multinational distribution chains of every “consumer”, wherever he may be, but the very eradication of a way of life… perhaps considered by some simple or rudimentary, perhaps even barbarous… but it is ours! It is the basis of what we have been and of what we still are.

Shall we add the fury and the rapacity with which our resources are taken from us, whether human resources or those of the earth? The way in which we are compelled to pay others enslaving bills for what we ourselves draw out of our own soil and our own waters — whether we speak of oil, gas, water or electricity? The way in which, while the Germans reopen coal-fired power stations, we are compelled to close ours down… in order to “save the planet”?

And because none of this can be turned into an obligation except through Law, those who would be our masters in the New Normality demand of us, with the cudgel of the CJEU, that we give up our Constitution and our Laws in favour of those imported directly from Brussels.

Now, to give up the Constitution and the sovereign attribute of national law-making means to give up sovereignty itself, to give up the status of a nation.

Eminescu wrote: “The condition of life of a law, the guarantee of its stability, is that it be a result, a faithful expression of the needs of a people, and it is precisely for this reason that the right to formulate those needs in articles and paragraphs belongs, according to the spirit of our time, to the peoples. A people — whatever it may be — has the right to give laws to its own needs and to the transactions which necessarily result from those needs, to the reciprocity of its relations; in a word: the laws of a people, its rights, can proceed from nothing but itself. / Another element, foreign to it, essentially different from its own, can impose nothing upon it; and if it does impose something, then it is only through the superiority — worthy of recognition — of its individuality, as, for example, the French imposed upon the Romanians. It is a peaceful influence, which the passive party receives with joy, with a contempt of its own, without judging that from this misfortune may be born for it.” (THE EQUILIBRIUM — extract from the article published in “Federațiunea”, 22 April / 4 May and 29 April / 11 May 1870; trans. by the author.)

Perhaps it is no accident either that the Sovereignty Act, the most important undertaking in the expression of national sovereignty of the last thirty-two years, was born a year ago also in the neighbourhood of Eminescu’s day! Indeed

That is why I believe that from this year on Eminescu’s Day, the Day of Romanian Culture, must become THE DAY OF ROMANIA’S SOVEREIGNTY!

It is the day from which we must begin to have the courage to say THUS FAR! IT IS TOO MUCH!

It is the moment from which #RoExit is no longer merely a question but becomes an option! And the continuation in this direction by the slave-masters who style themselves our “representatives” and “leaders” will make the “RoExit” option become an obligation.

That is why I call upon all those who do not accept the New Normality imposed by the masters of the Great Reset in Brussels, all those who wish to defend the values and the identity of our people, our culture and our traditions, to sign the #SovereigntyAct and to join the Coalition for the Nation.

“Împărați pe care lumea nu putea să-i mai încapă / Au venit și-n țara noastră de-au cerut pământ și apă — / Și nu voi ca să mă laud, nici că voi să te-nspăimânt, / Cum veniră, se făcură toți o apă ș-un pământ.” (Mihai Eminescu, Scrisoarea III. In the author’s literal rendering: “Emperors whom the world itself could no longer contain / came also into our country and demanded earth and water — / and I do not wish to boast, nor do I wish to frighten you: / as they came, so they all became one water and one earth.”)

99. 1 February 2022 — “68.4% of Romanians want a sovereign Romania!”

68.4% of Romanians want a sovereign Romania!

I say it is enormous: 1 Romanian in 4 wants out of the EU! And that although 99.99% of the political class and of the media are in thrall to the EU.

Although nobody (until a few days ago) dared so much as to pronounce the word RoExit: it was blasphemy…

Three years ago I was the first “madman” who dared to ask: RoExit???

Now, a quarter of Romanians have answered me YES!

And we have not even begun to discuss it at leisure…

I think the panic is great… this poll, made up as it is, shows that the Romanians have woken up:

“If 25% of Romanians are in favour of RoExit, 68.4% consider that Romania’s national interests must take priority over the interests of the EU and are, implicitly, in favour of a sovereigntist policy.”

Within a few years we shall be the majority, I assure you!

Post scriptum: and this after only one year since the discussion around and about the #SovereigntyAct was launched… a discussion hidden by the mass media and banned by social media…

100. 1 February 2022 — “DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WITHIN MARRIAGES OF CONVENIENCE”

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN MARRIAGES OF CONVENIENCE

We had no money to pay for a poll, but we take this opportunity to thank INSCOP and its funders for the data recently collected, from which we have drawn the following answers:

• over 70% of Romanians want a sovereign Romania

Since a sovereign Romania and remaining in the EU — as this construction looks at present, degenerate, with the prospect of a course still more gravely deviant in the future, deviant even from a minimum of sanity, to say nothing of the relations between member states — are two entirely incompatible things, we must correctly understand the message of the roughly 75% of Romanians who would not opt AT THIS MOMENT for #RoExit. These are the Romanians whom the EU itself, with the assistance of the traitors BROUGHT to power in Romania over the years, has made dependent on badly paid jobs outside the country.

That is all that still binds Romanians to the EU: freedom of movement and the freedom to work in countries with stronger economies.

Romanians are, however, aware that they are captives in a toxic marriage, 70% of them stating that the EU delivers products of inferior quality in Romania. Likewise 70% of Romanians say that they WOULD WISH to be employed by Romanian firms.

Thus the pro-Romania current — a Romania firmly delimited from the noxious mixture of identities dissolved in the EU, a Romania with total decision-making power over its own future — is absolutely overwhelming, altogether beyond what one might have hoped.

This 70% which recurs obsessively in favour of national sovereignty, peeping out from under the skirt even where it apparently goes in support of the idea of remaining in the EU, represents the clearest measurement of the last long stretch of time.

If Romanians have an evident reluctance to supply personal data, in particular the personal numerical code, in order to support in an assumed and official manner an initiative of the #SovereigntyAct kind, we see that, once these fears are removed, Romanians speak — and they speak well, articulately, conscious of our present powerlessness, which keeps them slaves in an abusive relationship with the European Union, but ready to break the chains at the first opportunity. For that is why this “opportunity” is so brutally censored whenever there rise from the ranks of civil society voices capable of generating even political options which might convey to Romanians that they have no reason whatever to behave like slaves; that the great economic powers at the wheel of the EU will be left with the asparagus in the field and the building sites in ruin if we no longer accept working on our knees; that all their prosperity rests on the shoulders of countries like Romania, as it always has in history; and that their threats have an echo only when we submit.

When Romanians become aware that those threats are real only when we validate them, that 25% in favour of RoExit will become, as at the press of a button, at least 75% — and we have the example of the lies subsumed to the sanitary dictatorship, which are imploding one after another and which will constitute a lesson far too acid for the teachings of this sinister experiment not to be used in any other context. Including in the context of a decision concerning Romania’s future inside or outside the European Union — a decision which will have to be taken by learning to set conditions ourselves as well.

101. 20 February 2022 — On six months of struggle

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

My dear fighters for Sovereignty,

Six months have already passed since the Sovereignty Act was published in the Official Gazette. It is already at least six months since we have been together, side by side, in our struggle against the “new normality” and against Romania’s status as a colony. For months on end we have been fighting together for the freedom and the dignity of the Romanian citizen, for our rights and liberties and for those of our children.

The process of gathering signatures has come to an end, and so the time has come for accounts, the time for analyses and for decisions. It is the ideal occasion for us to meet, to see one another face to face and to come to know one another still better.

But it is also the moment to decide how, or whether, our struggle must continue.

We together shall decide! Only we! Only together!

Present at this gathering will also be some of the initiators of the project, as well as persons who worked directly on the Sovereignty Act, such as Professor Ilie Șerbănescu, and also supporters and promoters of the Sovereignty Act.

That is why I ask you to accept my invitation to meet on Saturday, 26 February 2022, from 2 p.m., at the Hall on Bulevardul Nicolae Bălcescu 17–19, Bucharest 010043 (opposite the Dalles Hall)!

102. 27 February 2022 — On signatures and Parliament

On the Referendum Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Referendum Act.

414 days after its “conception”, six months less two days after its publication in the Official Gazette, the draft Sovereignty Act has reached its destination: Parliament!

It was the immense labour of a wonderful team!

The process of gathering signatures for the Sovereignty Act has come to an end.

Through an immense effort by many of my friends we managed to gather approximately 33,000 signatures. It is a great deal, a very great deal for the winter season, in the middle of a pandemic, with restrictions and terror on the part of the authorities. A great deal, but not enough to send the Sovereignty Act from the street straight into Parliament under the conditions of Article 74 of the Constitution and of Law 189/1999.

Only as recently as Thursday, just two days before the event closing the signature-gathering process which took place yesterday… everything seemed lost. Everything! An immense effort… for nothing! So it seemed.

In the middle of a black period, in times of war, of dictatorship and of plandemic, the Lord was indulgent with us and gave us one more hope. He granted us one more chance!

Yes, for with God’s help, WE HAVE WON!

Although we did not manage to gather the minimum of 100,000 signatures required by the Constitution, the deputies Daniel Ghiță and Dumitru Coarnă, together with six other members of Parliament, offered to carry our law, the #SovereigntyAct, into Parliament. They responded promptly to the e-mail I sent on Friday, 25 February 2022, to all the members of Parliament. And I thank them for having done so!

A miracle worked by God through wonderful people!

We thank them warmly and remain grateful to them!

We thank Mr Daniel Ghiță and Mr Dumitru Coarnă. And the other six members of Parliament!

And above all we thank God for having put the good thought into their minds!

Our struggle will now continue, indirectly, in Parliament, where we shall make interpellations, petitions and letters to the members of Parliament in order to compel them to hear our voice, the voice of those in the street! In order to force Parliament to debate, to vote and to adopt the Sovereignty Act!

This situation puts us in the position of understanding that Laws are written and amended in Parliament… by members of Parliament. That it is hard, almost impossible without the Lord’s help, to carry a draft Law from the street into Parliament. And it is harder still, from the street, to make a draft Law become a Law!

That is why I believe we shall have to choose whether we wish to remain in the street, from where we may make legislative proposals in our own interest and in the interest of our nation,

or whether we wish to go into Parliament, the place where Laws are written and amended, and from there to write the laws in our own interest, in the interest of our children and of our nation!

We shall have to decide whether we wish to remain together in the street, civic fighters for Sovereignty, or to pass together into the political front line, fighters in Parliament for Sovereignty!

We have proved that we know how and are able to listen to one another, to consult one another!

We have proved that we know how and are able to identify the problems and to synthesise concrete solutions!

We have proved that we know how and are able to write Laws that are better, and better written, than those of the present members of Parliament!

I thank you all enormously for the efforts you have made!

Your striving has not been without effect!

But the time has come for us to know and to choose what it is best for us to do for the country:

Whatever your decision may be regarding our possible future political involvement, our activity within the Vrem Suveranitate Association will continue.

There we have already constituted a Think Tank, a group of reflection, For the Nation, which has already been joined by some of the most brilliant minds I know: Ilie Șerbănescu — our dean by seniority,

Carmen Tănase, Monica Pop, Ecaterina Andronescu, Cosmina Cerva, Alexandra Dume, Adrian Severin, Varujan Vosganian, Răzvan Constantinescu, Toni Neacșu, Mirel Palada, Radu Iliescu, Iulian Capsali, Adrian Ștef, Mihai Ionescu, Aurelian Popa and, last on the list, the undersigned.

The list of course remains open, awaiting others who wish to identify the problems of our society and to seek solutions.

One thing is certain: our problems as a nation are great, while those who govern us are either ill-intentioned or incapable.

That is why we are obliged to find solutions. And if we do not find them, to invent them!

Post scriptum: now, at the end of a stage, I must give quite special thanks to Mrs Mariana Alecu, Mrs Angela Bibi and Mrs Irina Varlan, as well as to Mr Cătălin Dume, Mr Mihai Ionescu, Mr Aurelian Popa and Mr Iulian Capsali, without whom nothing could have happened.

Post post scriptum: until we take a decision, since the fast is drawing near, the time has come for more quiet, peace and prayer!

The miracle announced on Saturday has come to pass

The #SovereigntyAct was registered under registration no. 87 at the Chamber of Deputies today, 28 February 2022, exactly six months after the date of publication of the draft Law in the Official Gazette no. 925 of 28 August 2021.

The voice of more than 33,000 Romanians was heard by the deputies Daniel Ghiță (PSD) and Dumitru Coarnă (PSD), the latter also obtaining the support of the following 23 members of Parliament:

- Diana Iovanovici-Șoșoacă (independent)

Today, 1 March 2022, the #SovereigntyAct gathered 10 more supporters in Parliament and has reached 35 initiators!!!

Here are the members of Parliament who have decided in the last 12 hours to join those elected representatives who were already fulfilling with honour, courage and pride the mandate entrusted to them by the citizen:

What is certain is that Dumitru Coarnă and Daniel Ghiță are working miracles in Parliament!

At this rate, with God’s help, we may even get it to a vote and it will become, from a dream, a reality!

Perhaps together, civil society and members of Parliament, we shall succeed in bringing about the True Revolution!

The “parallels” are starting the #WitchHunt! They will have no luck … ✌️

A friend in the press has sent me a list of “friends of Putin”, drawn up by the undercover agents of the Parallel State, the agents of the External Factor. The operation of intimidating those with expertise, who still dare to think and to express themselves objectively, is becoming clear.

For the moment I refer only to those in the press, journalists and analysts on the list, whom I would characterise generically as the “cream of journalism” in Romania, people of great professional worth. So: to be denigrated by the agents of the parallels, in the service of the External Factor! Poor wretches, eaten up by their complexes …

In Parliament battles harder than those at Kiev are being fought to have the #SovereigntyAct withdrawn! Right now!

IMMENSE PRESSURE is being brought to bear on the signatories FOR THE LAW TO BE WITHDRAWN FROM PARLIAMENT!!!

Every signatory member of Parliament has been telephoned and each of them has had it whispered in his ear that the Sovereignty Act is a “controversial”, “dangerous” law… that it must not reach a vote.

We shall soon see who will hold out, who will not take fright… and who will give way and withdraw his signature.

What is certain is that Dumitru Coarnă, Daniel Ghiță and Daniel Tudorache have told me that they will withstand the pressure at any price… #ToTheVeryEnd!

They will have the courage and the dignity to table the Law at any risk!

Let us see how many of the 35 will have that strength of character.

I am curious what George Simion and Diana Iovanovici-Șoșoacă will do!

And one more thing is certain: the Sovereignty Act badly disturbs the system! Some things must not merely not be voted on — they must not even be discussed in Parliament!

Why? Because this Law represents the antidote to all the lawless deeds committed by the System over the last 32 years!

They are afraid! And they react violently… with threats and pressure.

This is the moment when the waters separate: from today we shall be able to see easily who is controlled by the system and who is not! Who has dignity and a backbone and who has not!

Who represents the electorate and the Romanian people and who does not!

A hard examination! And that is why they are afraid…

George Simion has told me just now that: “All the AUR members of Parliament are maintaining their signature!”

Honour to all the patriotic members of Parliament who withstand the pressure of the system!

WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ROMANIANS Dumitru Coarnă, Daniel Ghiță, Cionoiu Nicușor and Daniel Tudorache (HONOUR TO THEM!),

ALL THE PSD MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT HAVE WITHDRAWN THEIR SIGNATURES FROM THE SOVEREIGNTY ACT!

POST post scriptum: “Stop being curious! You ought to know me better! THEY DO NOT EVEN HAVE THE COURAGE TO RING ME, LET ALONE PROPOSE SUCH A THING TO ME! I think you have not understood until now what I do to them in Parliament. Once I have put my signature on a document, I do not withdraw it. And you ought to say that I told you from the beginning that I could take it over myself and table it as a civic initiative supported by me. It is fine that way too!

108. 3 March 2022 — “Yesterday, once the Sovereignty Act had been registered in Parliament under no. Pl-x 79/2022, we managed…”

Yesterday, once the Sovereignty Act had been registered in Parliament under no. Pl-x 79/2022, I succeeded in bringing (in our all bringing together, all of us in the fine Vrem Suveranitate team) to a good end the project begun a year and two months ago.

My role as initiator, author and supporter of the Sovereignty Act has come to an end.

From now on the whole responsibility rests on the shoulders of our elected representatives. On the shoulders of your members of Parliament!

As I have told you, if a single article of that Law passes, we shall see spectacular changes throughout the whole of society.

If the Sovereignty Act passes in its entirety it will be, without any exaggeration… a true Revolution. A Revolution made not with the gun but with the pen, with the word, the most dangerous weapon against Dictatorship and Abuse. Perhaps the first true Revolution. And not only here.

If the Sovereignty Act does not pass, if Parliament does not adopt it… there will be no room left for any hope. At least not for me and not in this country.

That is why we shall have to force Parliament to listen to our voice.

We shall have to go on gathering signatures on the petition opened at VremSuveranitate.ro by which we DEMAND THAT PARLIAMENT ADOPT THE SOVEREIGNTY ACT!

We shall have to make one more effort and gather close to one another!

If we are to succeed… only together shall we do it.

Then, from a strictly personal point of view, I am faced with the following observation: without false modesty, through the Sovereignty Act project I have done more in the last year than some members of Parliament have done in a four-year mandate. Or even in four parliamentary mandates.

If we succeed and the Law passes, even partly, I for one believe that I shall have fully fulfilled my duty as a citizen towards my country. Without having been paid for years with “shameless salaries”, but having been cursed and denigrated like a politician. For yes, of late I have had all the disadvantages of the status of a politician without any personal advantage — NOT ONE, quite the contrary. I am put on blacklists, fined, followed, cursed… at least let it all have been worth it.

And if, God forbid, we do not succeed and the Law is rejected by Parliament, it means that my contribution is not wanted by the country’s betters, and therefore my struggle and my beliefs are doomed to failure in any case.

In either situation… it is obvious that my role in public life is more or less at an end. At least for the moment. And it was time… for I confess that I am rather tired.

Following my friend Aurelian’s model, I too shall run a poll on my Telegram page where I shall ask your opinion, as one asks friends. I shall take account of your advice… I promise!

I await your advice here: https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat/889.

But I also reserve the right to do what my heart tells me, and as it tells me!

As for us, the Propagandists accuse us in every possible way when we say #WeWantSovereignty!

We no longer have the right to #Sovereignty…

Hello there, propaganda, a disambiguation is called for! Sovereignty… is it a good thing or a bad thing?

Is it good for it to be ceded a little, just so, “partially”… as you have argued so frenetically over the last few years? Or is it good only when it is ceded by Romania to your masters?

Until then I think I shall make a Ukrainian translation of the #SovereigntyAct!

The Ukrainians want sovereignty. And the Russians too speak of nothing but sovereignty.

Rather like Job, but a sinful, infernal Job. And yes, without going into legal detail, the lifting of all the privileges which this human scum enjoys as a result of having usurped the office of President of Romania is both lawful and justified.

In this post, however, I shall tell you briefly about the only way in which we shall in future avoid the appearance of another Petrov, another informer or securist implanted by the System in the highest office of the state.

The only solution is the removal of all the securists, the undercover agents and the secret services from the judiciary, from business, from social life and, above all, from political life!

The only solution is the #SovereigntyAct!

In Article 23 we expressly provided for the exclusion of the securists, for outlawing the Petrovs, by simple and specific measures:

“Law no. 51 of 29 July 1991 on the national security of Romania, republished, published in the Official Gazette no. 190 of 18 March 2014, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended as follows:

In Article 29, paragraphs (1) and (2) are amended and shall read as follows:

“(1) The intelligence, counter-intelligence, protection and special telecommunications services and those assimilated to them shall be organised exclusively on a civilian basis, their employees becoming by assimilation public servants with a special status, having the right to organise themselves in trade unions and to be investigated by the corresponding civilian prosecutor’s offices.

Their status shall be regulated by organic law.”

In Article 29, after paragraph (3) a new paragraph is introduced, para. (4), reading as follows:

“The personnel of the Romanian Intelligence Service, the Foreign Intelligence Service, the Special Telecommunications Service and the Protection and Guard Service who, on the date of retirement, held the status of permanent military cadre for a period of 15 years or more shall retain their entitlements until the moment their office ceases, in whatever manner.”

After Article 33, two new articles are introduced, Art. 33¹ and Art. 33², reading as follows:

“33¹ (1) The participation in any manner of the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them in the performance of any acts of judicial procedure is forbidden.

Influencing in any manner the prosecutor or the judge charged with conducting an investigation, by any person, including by employees or collaborators of the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them, constitutes an offence and is punishable by imprisonment from 10 to 20 years and the prohibition of certain rights.

Failure to report the interference provided for in para. (1) constitutes a criminal offence and is punishable by the same penalty as that provided for in para. (2).

33² (1) The participation in any manner of the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them in the carrying out of any activities of a political, economic or media nature is forbidden.

The holding of commercial companies, directly or indirectly, through their own personnel or through interposed persons, as well as the carrying out of commercial activities on the territory of Romania or abroad by the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them, is forbidden.

The intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them may not use funds other than those provided for in the State Budget Law.

Any gains obtained by the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them in the context of carrying out their specific activities shall be paid into the state budget.

The establishment, financing, direction or coordination, through their own personnel or through interposed persons, of non-governmental organisations by the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them is forbidden.

Breach of the provisions set out in paras. (1)–(5) constitutes a criminal offence and is punishable by imprisonment from 10 to 20 years and the prohibition of certain rights.

Failure to report the acts provided for in paras. (1)–(5) constitutes a criminal offence and is punishable by the same penalty as that provided for in para. (6).”

“Article 23 amends Law 51/1991 on national security, a law predating Romania’s accession to NATO and containing a series of provisions of Soviet origin, such as those providing for the militarisation of the secret services.

In order to harmonise national legislation with the legislation of Romania’s NATO and European Union allies, the total demilitarisation of the intelligence, counter-intelligence, protection and special telecommunications services and of those assimilated to them has been ordered.

In the same sense, the participation in any manner of the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and of those assimilated to them in the performance of any acts of judicial procedure has been forbidden, as has the influencing in any manner of the prosecutor or the judge charged with conducting an investigation. Any act contrary to the provisions of the law, as amended, has been criminalised, carrying a penalty of between 10 and 20 years.

For the same reasons, and also in view of the imperative necessity of forbidding any kind of interference by the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and by those assimilated to them in public life outside their own sector of activity, as well as the need to return to a fair competitive framework for the business environment in Romania, the participation in any manner of the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and of those assimilated to them in the carrying out of any activities of a political or economic nature has been forbidden, as has the holding of commercial companies, directly or indirectly, through their own personnel or through interposed persons, and the carrying out of commercial activities on the territory of Romania or abroad by the intelligence and counter-intelligence services and those assimilated to them.

The measures amending the provisions of certain laws fundamental to national security were taken because, in Kennedy’s words: “The very word ‘secrecy’ is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. […] For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence — on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed. […] That is why the Athenian law-maker Solon decreed it a crime for any citizen to shrink from controversy.” (John F. Kennedy, “The President and the Press”, address before the American Newspaper Publishers Association, Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, New York, 27 April 1961 — original text; the passages are quoted here in the order used in the explanatory memorandum, the omissions being marked by […].)”

It is the key article of the Sovereignty Act, it is the “head of the corner” and, at the same time, the foundation of a healthy Romanian society which may still hope for a future. It is the only chance we have, without any exaggeration!

It is certainly the most disturbing provision for the system of all those contained in the Sovereignty Act.

It is the reason why some members of Parliament were compelled by their superiors to withdraw their signatures from this draft…

It is the reason why I call upon you to support the Sovereignty Act and to demand that the members of Parliament adopt PL-x 79/2022

By pressing the button above, we shall put pressure on our deputies and senators to adopt the Sovereignty Act.

“We, the Romanian people, initiate this draft law called the Sovereignty Act in order to put an end to medical abuses, to prohibit the export of raw timber for 100 years, to repatriate the gold reserve, to prohibit the financing of the secret services from commercial activities of a private nature, to introduce concrete penalties for the violation of the country’s Constitution and to protect the human and natural resources of Romania.”

That is why nobody quotes the provisions which are supposed to bring us these benefits.

That is why I am not allowed into the Senate.

Proof of the betrayal and the villainy is the very fact that the Minister of Energy, Popescu, said with his own mouth that the amendment of the OffShore Act will de facto eliminate the surtax which exists to this day.

That is why the #SovereigntyAct had to be rejected yesterday!

If the press were a press, it ought to ask:

1. Why have you de facto eliminated the surtax from Ordinance 7/2013?

2. Why have you also included onshore gas in the category of exceptions provided for offshore gas?

3. Why do you allow the operators to sell all of Romania’s gas to whomever and at whatever price they wish outside the country?

4. Why are you giving away Romania’s resources free of charge?

5. Why have you eliminated the obligation for 50% of the gas extracted here to be sold on the domestic market?

In addition, gas from the territory of Romania (onshore) will no longer be extracted under the rules applicable to offshore operations, even where it lies at depths greater than 3,000 m.

Not least, the investments taken into account for the deduction from the tax on additional revenues will be considered non-deductible in the calculation of profit tax.

Will the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR-Minorities agree to these amendments?

You will see how the #CoalitionOfBetrayal — PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR — handed Romania’s gas over to the exploiting corporations and how it denied Romanians their right to dignity and prosperity, how the majority of the members of Parliament voted against our legitimate interests.

Tomorrow I shall return with explanations concerning the common denominator, the institution which coordinated the vote and brought about the rejection, in a single week, of two laws essential for the Romanian people: the #SovereigntyAct and our amendments to the #OffShoreAct.

128. 20 May 2022 — On the country of the services

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

Of late I have kept hearing it said by the mouths of propaganda that Russia is not a country which has a security service but a security service which has a country. I do not know. It may be so.

What I do know for certain is that this assertion is 100% valid for Romania: it is not Romania that has security services, it is the System, the security services, that have a country still called by law Romania, and de facto called Securistan.

For years now the System has penetrated into the most unsuspected and surprising nooks of society, so much so that you could not even get in as a secretary or a cleaning woman unless you had at least a starred “recommendation”, if not some post-graduate “studies” in the right place — that is, at the National Defence College in Bucharest, at the “Mihai Viteazul” National Intelligence Academy (the SRI school), or at the Romanian Diplomatic Institute (the SIE school).

I have a friend (I shall not give his name), an intelligent and very well educated gentleman who possessed every qualification to become an exponent of power but who never reached that position precisely because he was too intelligent and too free, and who confessed to me how the selections are made and what the school consists of. How and from where the recommendations must come and how you must in practice “kiss the ring” (figuratively, as in the mafia) of the Director of the College, taking as well a kind of oath of allegiance. How and what courses you take; about the immense screen at the headquarters of the Ministry of the Interior on which you can see everything, anything in Romania, in real time… and that was many years ago.

Only in this way does one reach the spheres of power… but not only there!

The whole thing has spread like a cancer, like a gangrene, into every field, into the judiciary, into the economy, into civil society, into culture itself, but above all into the political sphere.

Whatever the orientation he declares, whether so-called left or so-called right, the Romanian politician always thinks and acts “obediently” and “politically correctly”… as though he were receiving orders or had previously been through a course of training. And this for the simple reason that most “politicians” have first passed through one of the two institutions mentioned above: the National Defence College in Bucharest, the Romanian Diplomatic Institute or the “Mihai Viteazul” National Intelligence Academy — unless of course they were already undercover officers, in which case the training and re-education studies are no longer necessary. The prize pupils, the chosen few, such as Marcel Ciolacu, naturally also belong to the PRO-America Group within Parliament.

Once in Parliament, the systemic “politician”, whether from the “opposition” or from the “governing side”, would on certain “key” draft laws of “national interest” vote “spontaneously” and “politically correctly”, as though on command, so that it became disconcerting to see de facto unanimities in the vote between government and opposition on controversial and invariably liberticidal draft Laws, as happened with Law 55/2020 (on certain measures for the prevention and combating of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic)… you remember, don’t you?

It had become so disconcerting that it became obvious the System, the security services, control Parliament in its entirety.

That was the moment when the game of government-versus-opposition came to an end… That was the moment when the System said “We are the State” and established the majority of over 90% of the present Parliament, a majority which I have called the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR. It would probably have been more accurate to call it the #SRICoalition… in any case, it comes to the same thing!

What followed we already know: odious Laws passed without discussion, such as the Big Brother law — a Big Brother Law initiated by Tanczos Barna, the same individual from the same formation supported by Budapest, where terrorists who acted on Romanian territory are given prizes — criticised prudently and only in part, and fearfully, by a Constitutional Court itself about to succumb under the assault of the System; and in the last week alone we have seen how the #OffShoreAct was amended strictly and solely in favour of the exploiting foreign corporations, how censorship on the internet was officially instituted, and how the only draft law to come directly from society, from those not schooled by the System — the #SovereigntyAct — was rejected and derided by the men of the system.

Things were and are predictable. Before the vote on each essential law, in the (literally) enlisted mainstream press there appear the opinionators, the “specialists”, the “opinion formers” and the teleprompter girls, who announce and “bring the good tidings” of the invariably correct choice of the SRI Parliament.

That is, when the “annunciation” does not need to come from the SRI’s own official publications, so that the order may be well understood — as was the case with an explicit article which appeared a few days before the vote on the #OffShoreAct (here is the proof — https://intelligence.sri.ro/marea-neagra-o-sansa-pentru-securitatea-en…

That is why the reaction of civil society in coming forward with its own draft laws and/or amendments to the laws proposed by the system is normal and legitimate. So normal and legitimate that I fear the System may already be plotting something to silence those who take up the drafts from the street and bring them in “through the back door” into a Parliament that has become completely deaf and blind to the will of the citizen.

The risks are accepted, obviously. But the greatest risk is not the disappearance of a few people (too few, unfortunately) but the destruction of the last link between the people and the SRI Parliament.

I do not know. Probably only the elimination from the future Parliament of all the members of the #CoalitionOfBetrayal, of the #SRICoalition.

There is also a simple method for making the individual selection of each member of the future Parliament: eliminating the men of the System! Refusing to accept in the future Parliament the graduates of the system’s “schools” of correction and training, the National Defence College in Bucharest and/or the “Mihai Viteazul” National Intelligence Academy, institutions which offer “master’s degree studies for the promotion of the culture of security in civil society”, as we read on the site https://www.animv.ro/admitere-3/, since “civil society, or the new political class, needed education in order to have access to a field which until then they had been forbidden to study, to discuss and to understand” (https://cnap.unap.ro/index.php/ro/).

What is interesting is that “Civilian and military personalities may enrol in the courses of the National Defence College, graduates of civilian or military higher education institutes who hold, or may in future hold, positions of leadership and decision in the fields of security policy and national defence”, the condition for admission and enrolment being “nomination by the tutelary institution for participation in the courses;” (https://cnap.unap.ro/index.php/ro/conditiile-de-inscriere).

The natural question which arises on reading this eliminatory condition of enrolment (yes: you, from the street, cannot enrol without a “nomination”) is WHICH TUTELARY INSTITUTION NOMINATED… CIOLACU, who took courses in Further Training in the field of national security and defence, “Security and good governance”, in 2008–2009? Or MIHAI TUDOSE, graduate of a post-graduate course in the field of national security at the Higher College of National Security, Romanian Intelligence Service. Or SORIN GRINDEANU, likewise a graduate of a further training course on the theme “Security, diplomacy and foreign policy” at the Romanian Diplomatic Institute. Or any of the many members of Parliament and senior officials who have passed through the schools of the system, a sine qua non condition of accession to the positions they hold.

The major problem is not even that the System, that the Securitate, has spread through Romanian society at every level. As never before!

The vital problem for Romania is that the System, the Securitate, acts consistently against the nation and against liberty, as has been seen in the latest systemic legislative initiatives adopted by the SRI Parliament.

The vital problem for us as free human beings and as citizens is that the System acts directly against the interests of each one of us, beyond any discussion of principles and values.

We have already reached the point where it is one or the other: #EitherUsOrThem!

More and more often the representatives of the System, from Gauleiter Iohannis to the chiefs of what I have called the #CoalitionOfBetrayal — that is, the collective entity Ciucă-Ciolacu-Kelemen — tell us that the Constitution must be changed.

This Constitution has many shortcomings, but it has the great merit of having defended our rights during the plandemic and of having made the #SovereigntyAct possible.

I too should like a Parliamentary Republic and a clearer separation of powers in the state. I too should like a President with more limited and more clearly defined powers.

But the changes will have to be made by a Parliament which does not represent a mere 30% of the electorate and which is not populated by citizens with “studies” done at the “Academies” of the Securitate.

Not in a period of sanitary, military, economic and food crisis!

For AN AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION MADE NOW WILL BE THE OCCASION FOR LIMITING OUR FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FOR GIVING UP WHAT IS LEFT OF NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY! I have no doubt whatever! Those are precisely THE AIMS OF THE GLOBALIST SYSTEM MEN WHO GOVERN US!

130. 25 May 2022 — On the end of globalisation

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

George Soros announced to us yesterday that Globalisation is dying. “Even when the fighting stops, as it eventually must, the situation will never revert to the status quo ante”, he prophesies to us.

Yes, Soros is right. And he is right too when he says “That’s why I say our civilization may not survive” upon observing that other issues which concern the whole of humanity — “fighting pandemics and climate change, avoiding nuclear war, maintaining global institutions — have had to take a back seat to that struggle.” (George Soros, remarks delivered at the World Economic Forum, Davos, 24 May 2022 — original text.)

“Their civilisation”, the globalist “civilisation”, will not survive.

In fact, Globalisation is already dead. The unipolar world in which a group of decrepit billionaires and autistic IT men decided the fate of the whole planet over a pretentious dinner somewhere in a Swiss resort or in some capital of the “civilised world” came to an end on 24 February 2022. Whatever the fate of the war in Ukraine, globalisation has ceased; it perished together with the demonisation of Russia and the institution of institutionalised Russophobia in the “civilised west”.

Many will hasten to tell me that it is impossible for globalisation to end, that the process is irreversible and that, in present conditions, the world can only be globalised.

Wrong. Globalisation, in the sense in which I have used the term until now, was the perfect synonym for cultural and social uniformisation, for the abolition of traditional and social differences, for the interoperability and management of production and economic exchange, all of it carried out under the aegis of a western “Intelligentsia” which also set the agenda of global priorities and humanity’s to-do list.

This unipolar globalisation, synonymous with a world statism, has already come to an end.

The other globalisation — that of the exchange of ideas, goods and persons, but without a single command; that globalisation which has existed since antiquity with its Silk Road, or with the providential encounters of civilisations and traditions such as in Spain from the eighth to the fifteenth century, or in Syria until its destruction in the twenty-first — that globalisation will not cease. It cannot!

The globalised statism of the United States and of its allies and satellites (not to say colonies) has, however, come to an end.

The disappearance of the Dollar as the single currency of exchange at global level is the death certificate of this globalisation.

The appearance of the Chinese Yuan and of the Russian Rouble in international transactions, together with the activation of the BRICS bank in the global economy, are the birth certificates of the multipolar world.

Faced with this situation, apparently unforeseen by the former world hegemon — although extremely simple and easy to anticipate — the United States finds itself obliged to compensate for the loss of global control by tightening its control over, and isolating, the world it still governs directly, and I mean here Europe, North America, Australia and Japan.

The countries under its leadership (the EU included) are obliged to break off all contact with “the other world”, to refuse the exchange with it not only of ideas but also of goods. Clearly, in a first phase, this measure will give a bubble of oxygen to the wheezing economy of the former world leader, which will take over the functions of “utilities supplier” for its part of the world… For us, in the colony, the effects of the orders received from the metropolis are already visible. In today’s government meeting alone several measures will be taken to sever all links with the “world beyond” the new iron wall: the Government will approve Romania’s withdrawal from the International Bank for Economic Co-operation and the International Investment Bank, two “eastern” institutions of which we had been part since 1963 and 1970 respectively.

But beyond the long-term economic effects, which we shall not comment on here and now, what is certain is that the Biden administration — the one under which the death of Globalism has taken place — is incapable of realising that these measures are “pro-cyclical”, doing nothing other than leading to an even more pronounced division of the world… to a still speedier death of the Globalism they dreamed of. To the disappearance of the status of sole world power: the United States is on the way to falling from the status of a Global power to the level of a regional power, the power of the “North Atlantic” Region.

And this too the “prophet” Soros seems to realise: “This could be the end of our civilisation”… It could not — it is already the end of western domination over the planet. The throwing of Russia into China’s arms (witness the joint manoeuvres of these countries in the Pacific) will lead, first of all, to the “splitting” of the world in two (with an increased role for regional powers such as Turkey) and afterwards, unfortunately, to China’s assumption of the role of hegemon. But that is another “prophecy”.

What is certain is that Romania at this moment is on a collision course with history, and the present leadership, by the unconditional surrender of all this people’s initiatives and resources to a world power which has become a regional one, without any perspective of the national interest and of the historical destiny of this people, is nothing other than a grave act of #Betrayal.

For if the purpose of what I have called the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR were not one foreign to the national interest, and if the agenda of government were not strictly subordinate to the plans and interests of the metropolises from which we receive “light”… this coalition of nearly 90% of Parliament would not have been permitted. Acts of betrayal (such as the rejection of the #SovereigntyAct and the adoption of the amendments brought by OMV through Ciucă-Ciolacu-Kelemen-Pambuccian to the #OffShoreAct) must be taken and secured with broad majorities. Just as today, today again!, the executive will approve the methodology of reporting and the information circuit in the National Electronic Register of Vaccinations… so that their plans continue, only on a smaller scale, here in the colonies.

There would be much more to say… but I know you do not like long articles. We shall return… until then, one conclusion:

Unipolarism is extinguished, Globalisation has set!

Say good morning to multipolarism and welcome to globalised Regionalisation.

132. 1 June 2022 — On the laws of the Securitate

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

The reason why the #SovereigntyAct had to be rejected by the #CoalitionOfBetrayal?

The PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR are amending the Security laws and giving unlimited powers to the securists:

The subterranean state has decided. It is suddenly coming to the surface. It is making its status official. The status of an omnipresent and omnipotent power. The employees of the militarised institutions of force, and in particular those of the Romanian Intelligence Service, are turning into gods. Not that they were not so until now. But the law they are determined to promote installs them in that posture openly. In fact it is a legislative package. The Security laws.

Naturally, Romania needs a new set of Security laws, officially called national safety laws. The rules under which the militarised secret services function, and in particular the SRI, as well as those governing the activity of certain services belonging to other institutions of force, were for the most part drawn up in haste more than 30 years ago. Far outstripped by contemporary realities. On this point Romania does indeed need new regulations. Modern ones. Such as to bring into accord with the Constitution, with the Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure and with other organic laws the practices already established in the activity of these services, many of them at present unlawful but dictated to some extent by the need to function. And in this context, the bomb went off.

The secret services, which constitutionally are not and cannot be initiators of laws, have prepared a substantial package of legal rules, a legislative package concerning national safety. After which they placed this legislative draft in the hands of the political decision-makers. In a few days, from what has been learned — as early as next week — the Government of the four-star general Nicolae Ciucă will deal us a veritable blow with the cudgel. It will discuss, approve and promote in Parliament the new legislative package.

But why is it that since yesterday, since this information exploded in the press, several journalists and analysts have hastened to express themselves in unequivocal terms, to the effect that a grave violation of fundamental human rights and liberties is being prepared, an unprecedented abuse by the institutions of force headed by the SRI, taking advantage of the international conjuncture and of the herd effect upon a population which, living through an acute feeling of fear, feels the need to fall in behind those who, as circumstances have it, have come to be its leaders?

The text of the whole legislative package is not yet available to public opinion. It will probably be so next week, after it leaves the Government. But passages from this legislative package have been disclosed. Among other things, we are witnessing several extremely dangerous innovations in legal matters. For instance, it is envisaged that in future the arrest of an SRI employee or a search of his home, whatever the nature of the offences of which there are sound indications that he has committed them, may not be carried out in accordance with the procedures of the Criminal Code. The employees of the secret services — which, I repeat, are militarised institutions, a unique case in Europe — however grave the offences discovered by the prosecutors and however urgent their intervention ought to be, may no longer be searched or arrested even in flagrante, without the prior notification of the Director of the Romanian Intelligence Service. Or of his counterparts, in the case of other services. Moreover, a written approval will be necessary, issued by none other than the High Court of Cassation and Justice. That is, by those magistrates concerning whom we have already produced evidence that they were trained with European money intended for the family — hence through the misappropriation of funds — by SRI employees, and indeed on the institution’s own premises. Finally, it is envisaged, likewise under this draft law, that all cases of this kind be investigated only by a restricted group of prosecutors designated in advance. And in the event that, in order to carry out an arrest in flagrante or to complete the legal procedures, searches or raids on official or clandestine premises of the institution are indispensable — to refer exclusively to the SRI — the prior approval of the head of the Supreme Council of National Defence is required. That is, of the President of Romania himself. The madness is that this legal regime would also extend to undercover officers. Which means, neither more nor less, that the prosecutors designated for such situations — probably also by the SRI — would have access to a series of pieces of information to which not even the director of the institution has access. That is, to the complete list of undercover officers.

In this whole legal tangle there appears one further great unknown. When they steal, the SRI agents do not steal alone. From everything that has been seen and learned over the last 30 years, they commit their offences together with, or through the intermediary of, businessmen. Who are not necessarily undercover officers. Will these too benefit from the same legal regime?

Things go, however, even further than we can imagine. Under this legislative package, every citizen and every commercial company is obliged, on a simple verbal request, to assist the SRI employee, supplying him with any kind of information and any kind of support requested. Otherwise, the citizens and the managers will be breaking the law. In that situation, SRI employees may “use law-enforcement techniques”. And what might that be? Let us translate briefly. They may proceed at once to detain the person or, to give an example, to requisition his car. They become a kind of gods.

The icing on the cake consists in making official the right of the secret services, and especially of the SRI, to hold and run autonomous public undertakings, associations of a professional, social, cultural, sporting, recreational or humanitarian character.

This week this squalid business is under discussion in the governing coalition, and I would point out that I have lifted only one corner of the carpet which conceals it. Once the coalition leaders have reached agreement, the draft normative act goes to the Government, which adopts it as its own. After which the intention is to push it through Parliament at full speed.”

“To err is human, but to persist in error is military.”

In 1989 people cried out and died for FREEDOM!

Yesterday’s Securitate has rebranded itself in the name of the safety of the state!

I lived through the age of the protocols… and I saw, as a judge, how all our work was reduced to derision by the signatures of a few heads of services and magistrates… all in the name of the fight against corruption!

Whom did it serve? And what were the costs?

We put fundamental rights in chains and told ourselves that Jesus too suffered and endured… why should we not endure?!

The age of the protocols and of those who instilled the fear of speaking, of protesting, has passed… or so we believed.

At short intervals we “wake up” to yet another… contrivance by which an attempt is made to give the protocols the force of law!

We have new people at the Court, we are no longer playing in the second division, are we?

The “draft law” (the screenshots are taken from the site Luju.ro) defies not only common sense but the very idea of the rule of law!

If it is adopted, the state governed by the rule of law becomes, officially, a state standing to attention!

Romania, turn out the light! Energy has gone up in price! Light the candle and listen to Radio Free Europe! Ah, forgive me! Europe itself has not been Free for a long time!

134. 15 June 2022 — “Because the Securitate has been in everything and everywhere for 30 years now!”

Because the Securitate has been in everything and everywhere for 30 years now!

In every field: in politics, in the judiciary, in the economy, in culture, even in sport — everywhere it is them… The securists, the men of the System are everywhere, and above all in the key positions.

Only that everything we see is destruction, is disaster… we see only the ruins of what we were, for as much as we were.

They are the ones responsible for that mixed feeling of humiliation-shame-revolt which we have whenever we think of anything to do with this country, destroyed by the traitors and the starred imbeciles who are leading it to ruin.

What happened last night with the national football team is symptomatic: ever since the securists laid hands on the Romanian Football Federation, Romanian football has become a grotesque parody of what it once was.

The same pattern has been followed with the economy and with agriculture monopolised by foreign corporations, with industry cut up and sold for scrap, with resources given away for nothing, with a judiciary run on protocols, with everything…

But what they have done so far is not enough… they want still more power in order to bring the work of destruction to a good end. That is why the new “National Safety Laws” have appeared… the only advantage of these laws is that, if they are adopted, power will be assumed and exercised transparently by the system. And we shall be able to see who is responsible for the marasmus and for the extinction… I told you they are not intelligent: they will come out like lice on the forehead!

Yes, my dears, our problem is that the members of the securist caste which governs us are not merely thieves, scoundrels and traitors… but also very stupid and impotent! See the Burleanu case: he is the symbol of the securist and of securism in Romania, a man of the system who walked over corpses and who threw valuable innocent men into prison (see the footballer of genius Gică Popescu) in order to get to the bone, and when he got there… he made the bone so small and insignificant that he lives off pickings worthy of a worm.

And so is the whole “System”, the entire Romanian establishment! Look at them, from the President to the last minister or member of Parliament of the #CoalitionOfBetrayal, and you will have before you the picture of our extinction as a people and as a country. But a pitiful, parodic picture, before which you feel nothing but embarrassment and Shame at being the contemporary of its protagonists, of its authors.

I have said it and I say it again: the only chance for this people is the sudden, brutal, even painful excision of the securist metastasis… it is #EitherUsOrThem, we are facing extinction! Just as a cancer kills its host, so the securists will kill the people from which they came and which they ought to guard.

I wanted to stop the System with the #SovereigntyAct… The System reacted: you saw Ciolacu saying that “the law is an aberration”. Then the System moved on to threats.

I am sick of them, for the securists have made a whole country sick… a grave sickness which has brought us with one foot in the grave!

136. 27 June 2022 — “On the necessity of over-taxing the profiteers of the energy crisis”

On the necessity of over-taxing those who profit from the energy crisis

The price of gas and of fuels rises from one day to the next. Astounding. Painful for every single citizen.

Prices for the end user have reached historic highs although the exchange price has not exceeded the highs recorded on 1 April 2011 (125.89 dollars a barrel of crude oil) or on 1 May 2008 (127.78 dollars a barrel of crude oil). In fact today, when at the pumps we have prices at record historic levels, the barrel of crude oil is trading on the exchange at less than 113 dollars. And if we also take into account the natural devaluation of the dollar as a result of ordinary inflationary erosion (of at least 2% a year!), we reach the conclusion that the price per barrel of oil is far lower on the exchange today than it was 11 or 14 years ago, when we paid at most 6 lei a litre of petrol.

Then where do these price increases come from?

For, obviously, the explosive increase in prices “at the pump” is not caused by any shortage of the products on the market, since that would have resulted in an increase in the exchange price. Which is not happening, save to a very small extent.

In other words, the “energy crisis” is not caused (only) by the war and by Putin… Not at all. Or only to a very small extent.

The increase in the price at the pump and in the price of gas is either induced, and therefore artificial, as a state policy — see the “green policies” and “decarbonisation” — or else it is the result of a human behaviour more noxious even than pollution itself: GREED!

As I have accustomed you, my friends, and as I have also accustomed the governors of Romania, I shall come forward with a solution — a litmus test: a legislative amendment, an amendment to the Fiscal Code. Which I submit for discussion by you and also by the “Think Tank”, the Initiative Group for the Nation, born at the same time as the sending of the Sovereignty Act to Parliament.

This legislative initiative, once debated and improved, I hope — in fact I am certain — will be taken up and tabled in Parliament by our friend, deputy Dumitru Coarnă.

I set out below two possible versions of an article which will supplement the Fiscal Code with special rules and rates of taxation for “taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives”, versions submitted for your attention and debate.

“Law amending the fiscal code with a view to the special taxation of taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives

Sole article: After Article 18 of Law no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code, Article 18¹ is introduced, reading as follows:

“ART. 18¹ — Special regime for taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives

The rate of profit tax owed by taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives, including legal persons which obtain such revenues under an association contract, for the activities provided for in this article, is 90% of the profit exceeding 10% of the turnover for the fiscal year, this tax being added to that provided for in Article 17.

Taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives, including legal persons which obtain such revenues under an association contract, for the activities provided for in this article, are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 5% applied to the revenues recorded.”

The first version is an over-taxation of profits exceeding 10% of turnover, a taxation whose purpose would be to discourage greed and speculation on fuel and gas prices. It has the disadvantage, however, that it can be circumvented through “fiscal optimisations”…

Which is why I am inclined to believe that the second version, that of a direct tax on revenue, without possibilities of deduction and optimisation, would be the more appropriate.

I await your comments and proposals and those of all the “tax specialists” willing to lend a hand… to the Romanian people.

137. 29 June 2022 — “On the NECESSITY OF TAXING LARGE FORTUNES AND BUSINESSES”

On THE NECESSITY OF TAXING GREAT FORTUNES AND GREAT BUSINESSES

There is much talk in the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR about a “redistribution of the fiscal burden”. There is much talk, and much shrieking… and little is done. In fact, nothing at all!

For, YES, a “redistribution of the fiscal burden” is needed in Romania.

But let us do it properly, taking from where the money is, not once again from ordinary Romanians, who have always borne the cost of every crisis, of every disastrous government which has brought the country to the edge of the abyss.

That is why I bring into public discussion the necessity of TAXING GREAT FORTUNES AND GREAT BUSINESSES according to a simple rule: 1, 2, 3!

THE TAXATION OF GREAT FORTUNES I consider should be carried out on successive thresholds of taxation (applied cumulatively)

- 1% a year of the total, cumulated value of the movable and immovable assets held by a taxpayer which exceed 10 million Euros,

- 2% a year of the total, cumulated value of the movable and immovable assets held by a taxpayer which exceed 100 million Euros, and

- 3% a year of the total, cumulated value of the movable and immovable assets held by a taxpayer which exceed 1 billion Euros.

THE TAXATION OF GREAT BUSINESSES should be carried out on successive thresholds of taxation

- 1% of turnover for commercial companies with a turnover greater than 10 million Euros;

- 2% of turnover for commercial companies with a turnover greater than 100 million Euros;

- 3% of turnover for commercial companies with a turnover greater than 1 billion Euros.

I consider that in overcoming the present crisis the shoulder must be put to the wheel above all by the few and the fortunate, by those who have succeeded either through their own performance (too few) or by exploiting the “windows of opportunity” offered by the weaknesses of the Romanian state over the last 32 years, whether they be natural or legal persons.

To this scheme of taxation will be added the special tax for “taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives”, of which I spoke a few days ago.

Of course, the above proposal will take the form of a legal text written according to all the requirements of Law 24/2000 on the rules of legislative technique, a legislative proposal which I hope will also reach Parliament with the help of our friend, deputy Dumitru Coarnă!

Post scriptum: I await your views, proposals and opinions on the discussion Channel which we also used on the occasion of drafting the #SovereigntyAct legislative proposal, at https://t.me/LegeaSuveranitatiiDiscutii

Post scriptum: I know, with this proposal I shall set against me all the securists and all the rich men of the country and all the multinationals… again! But it is worth it!

141. 17 July 2022 — “The press is waking up and saying what I have been saying for months: #LegeaOffshore is an act of treason.”

The press is waking up and saying what I have been saying for months: the #OffshoreAct is an act of betrayal.

When I said so explicitly (it is true that Sorin Roșca Stănescu too sounded some alarms), I was considered a Putinist.

When I managed to send into Parliament a set of amendments which would have made the Offshore Act a law in the National interest, NOBODY, absolutely NOBODY in the press supported them. They did not even mention them. Probably because they came from me, a “Putinist”.

When I came out in front of Parliament to shout #RomanianResourcesForRomania and to demand the adoption of the amendments I had written in the interest of Romanians and which were being put to the vote in Parliament at that very moment… there were only 30 of us… at most! Nobody was interested in a protest organised by a “Putinist”, of course!

Parliament rejected all my amendments to the Offshore Act, labelling them as… “Putinist”, obviously.

Now, barely two months later, the press is beginning to wake up. To say that we were Betrayed by the government of those in the #CoalitionOfBetrayal: PSD, PNL, UDMR, USR.

Late. Too late… Romania has already given away its Black Sea gas… for NOTHING.

Lamentations after the event are useless. Pitiful, even. I was convinced this is how it would be: when the “press” could have prevented this betrayal, it kept absolutely silent. The subject did not even exist. Only the propaganda barking about how well the government is doing in “unblocking the exploitation of Black Sea gas”. It unblocked it, all right… and our gas became theirs, the property of the operators from foreign corporations.

I remain at peace in that, for my part, I really did everything I could to prevent this act of national betrayal.

It is a consolation which is of no help to me, however, since it will bring neither warmth into our houses nor money into our pockets.

“The Offshore Act, as it has been conceived, promulgated and now applied, transfers practically the whole quantity of gas to foreign companies which, as Floriana Jucan has demonstrated, may sell this gas to other companies, so that we, in order to benefit from it, will simply buy it at the free-market price.”

You are still not interested… clearly, it is warm, very warm outside! Wait until the cold comes… and until YOUR pockets are emptied.

Then many of you will read these lines differently.

Here is the text! Ready to be tabled in Parliament (I hope our friend Dumitru Coarnă will help us this time too)!

DRAFT LEGISLATION AMENDING THE FISCAL CODE

After Article 18, Articles 18¹ and 18² are introduced, reading as follows:

“ART. 18¹ Special regime for taxpayers with annual revenues of over 10,000,000 Euros

Taxpayers who have obtained revenues exceeding the equivalent in lei of 10,000,000 euros are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 1% applied to the revenues recorded. The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

Taxpayers who have obtained revenues exceeding the equivalent in lei of 100,000,000 euros are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 2% applied to the revenues recorded. The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

Taxpayers who have obtained revenues exceeding the equivalent in lei of 1,000,000,000 euros are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 3% applied to the revenues recorded. The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

ART. 18² — Special regime for taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives

“Taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives and having annual revenues greater than 10,000,000 euros, including legal persons which obtain such revenues under an association contract for the activities provided for in this article, are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 5% applied to the revenues recorded.”

After TITLE X, TITLE X¹ is introduced, entitled “THE TAX ON GREAT FORTUNES”, reading as follows:

“Article 500¹ Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the securities and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 10,000,000 Euros are liable to pay a solidarity tax amounting to 1% a year of the total value of the fortune.

Article 500² Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the securities and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 100,000,000 Euros are liable to pay a solidarity tax amounting to 2% a year of the total value of the fortune.

Article 500³ Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the securities and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 1,000,000,000 Euros are liable to pay a solidarity tax amounting to 3% a year of the total value of the fortune.

144. 3 August 2022 — “And on Stupidity as the trigger of Disaster”

And on Stupidity as the trigger of Disaster

If someone had set out to sketch a plan for sabotaging the “civilised world”, I do not know that he could have made a better one than the present policy pursued by the establishment in Washington and Brussels. In less than three years the ruling caste of the west has managed to wreck the west economically and to induce an apocalyptic atmosphere in the world. Memories of 2019 seem, today, to come from another world. And what until now seemed to be mere theoretical discussions about politics and geopolitics have, in recent days, become necessary explanations for the continuous worsening of our lives: galloping inflation, exorbitant prices for energy and fuels, unemployment, bank instalments impossible to bear, bankruptcies, rationing and poverty… and all of it has its source in human activity, not in a natural disaster! In the activity of a very few people whom a terrible destiny has caused to be… very stupid.

After two years of plandemic in which the economy of the west was frozen, and in which the civilised west (not here, of course, in the colonies!) pumped billions into social protection, the bill came due as it normally would — the galloping inflation which began as early as the end of 2021. At that same time there began the wave of “sudden deaths” among the young, among the active population, all of it as a result of the imposition of experimental treatments in the second year of the pandemic. We already had inflation, illness, death, pressure on the medical system and a decrease in the number of contributors to the social insurance system, already under the pressure of the west’s ageing population. And all of it as a result of the “wise decisions” of the “chiefs of the world”.

Then, “to make things better”, in January 2022, while many countries of the “civilised world” were still keeping their citizens shut in and restricted, there suddenly reappeared, after many years of silence, the theme of Ukraine’s accession to NATO — a theme which, as everyone knew, would radicalise Russia and make it react. We are not speaking here about principles, about sovereignty and the right to self-determination and to decide with whom a country makes alliances… we are speaking about timing! And about the clear indication that these mere discussions alone would lead to war. To a war with the country from which you, western European, take the energy with which you heat yourself and with which you develop economically. It did not matter. The “principles” prevailed! Hence the cutting off of the gas and the major energy crisis at whose beginning we now stand. And more: not only have you provoked the war by throwing Ukraine into the path of Russian guns, but you also feed the conflict with weapons and intelligence, sharpening the energy crisis (not to speak of the tens of thousands of victims at the front, since nobody cares about those), bringing the world to the brink of a food crisis and… raising inflation to levels impossible to imagine even at the end of the pandemic — that is, a few months ago. More “intelligent” decisions!

And, to make it clear that the point at which we find ourselves is one of no return, here is Lavrov announcing to us that “the era of cooperation with the west is over; there will be no return to the situation prior to 24 February in Russia’s relations with the USA and Europe”.

All this time, the betters of the “civilised world” have told us that gas is bad, that we must economise, and be cold, and be hungry, and above all “go green”. That is, go electric. That is, go solar. That is, go over to batteries. Solar panels and batteries which are produced in… you have guessed it, in China and Taiwan!

Which is why it was “normal” for you, a better of the “civilised world”, to remember your “principles”, sovereignty, and Taiwan’s equal rights to independence and self-determination! Which is why you send Mrs Pelosi “Pearl Harbor” on a visit to Taiwan. Never mind that you risk opening a second military front. Never mind that from China and Taiwan come not only the batteries and the solar panels, but everything and anything! Even underwear, clothes, gadgets… everything! And above all chips, those chips which are in everything, from the bank card to the telephone to the missile… For China has already reacted: it is organising an economic blockade of Taiwan and is suspending the opening in the USA of a factory worth 5 billion USD, where 10,000 people were to work producing… batteries for “more green”!

In other words, without a prior plan and concrete prior action to repatriate industry to the “civilised west” (but who would work there, since the active population is small and frail and suffers either from “sudden deaths” or from the apathy and idleness brought on by western social assistance), the burning of the bridges to the western world’s suppliers of energy and goods is an act of self-sabotage, downright suicidal. “Brilliant”!!!

And as you have seen, in this post I have touched briefly only on pragmatic subjects, matters of economics and of the physical survival of the west.

I have not spoken about “Cancel Culture”, about the assault of the LGBTQWERTY “cult”, about the erasure of the identity and traditions of the peoples of the west, about the anti-religious and especially anti-Christian fury of the politically correct establishment. That is, about the cultural, intellectual and spiritual survival of our world — a battle the “civilised west” has been losing for more than ten years…

Now, with the setting of unipolar Globalism, when all the plans for authoritarian control of the Planet have failed, the betters of the “Small Planet” have gone into a spin. A self-destructive spin, which will hasten the decline of the “civilised world”. The measures taken are so idiotic, so devoid of sense, that they can no longer even be put down to villainy, but only to crass stupidity, to the ineptitude of the ruling caste of the “civilised world”.

That is why we, the 99.99% who are being “governed” towards disaster by the present political caste, have the obligation to find solutions: solutions of government, solutions for a world in which we and our children may live with dignity. For politics must have as its sole purpose the good of the citizen, and the role of politics must be, as Plato held, the achievement of social unity through virtue and above all through education. That is, exactly the opposite of the policies of our present governors.

That is why we are obliged to come out of our passivity. In any way whatever. That is also why I write you these posts, which bring me many enemies and no few troubles. For — and I say this to the less quick-witted of my followers — the positions expressed are neither Putinist, nor Xi-Jinpingist, nor anti-western. For no, I do not want to live either in Russia or in China! And in no case do I want Romania to become a country built on their model — the proof stands in the #SovereigntyAct, where we tried to defend the rights and liberties of citizens against the assault of the state and to demilitarise the intelligence services and remove them from society, precisely so that we should not live as they do in the two countries mentioned above.

And that is precisely why I am obliged to draw attention to the imminence of disaster.

A disaster synonymous with the apocalypse of the “civilised world”, a veritable apocalypse of stupidity.

And to see a confirmation of the above:

146. 13 August 2022 — On the men of the system

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

On the men of the system and the Party without a Name

As you probably know already, on Wednesday we launched the Coalition for the Nation (CpN), a sovereigntist and conservative party whose project for the country is traced out by the #SovereigntyAct, a draft law rejected without explanation by the present Parliament. In this post I shall not tell you again about what we have done so far and what justifies the appearance of this new party, nor about what we shall do in future and how (I have already done so in several live broadcasts together with Răzvan Constantinescu, Iulian Capsali and Aurelian Popa, a founding member of the CpN).

I shall tell you instead about a reaction which we anticipated but which came sooner and more transparently than we expected: the reaction of the men of the system!

And I shall not be referring to the men of the system at the controls, those who, unknown, under the protection of anonymity, direct our destinies and take this country towards disaster; I shall show you rather how they come to do so.

I must state from the outset that we have established a rule: on joining the CpN, every aspiring member must complete a declaration on his own responsibility in which he declares that “I have not been and am not an operative worker, including an undercover one, an informer or a collaborator of the intelligence services. For as long as I am a member of the Coalition for the Nation Party I undertake not to accept any such capacity.”

Why did we impose such a declaration? Because we wanted to avoid the infiltration of the Coalition by men of the system who may have a “command”, a “little key” somewhere else, an occult one, a command which would make them act, in limit or decisive situations, in an interest other than that of the members, supporters and voters of the CpN. For it is well known that one leaves the “System” only feet first…

For barely three days after the launch, questions of this kind had already reached me: “but there are some former collaborators of the services who are patriots and want to join you”.

My answer was simple: let them declare that they were collaborators, so that at least we know whom we are talking to…

The answer I received is symptomatic: they cannot declare any such thing, because they were undercover!!!

I say symptomatic because the situation in which Romanian society finds itself is becoming ever more obvious: a society swarming with “undercover agents” infiltrated into everything and everywhere. And who, in their overwhelming majority, work for services in thrall to a foreign interest, the ones who have turned Romania into a colony, into an outpost of globalism.

They are the members of the “Party without a Name”, the party which is in everything and everywhere, the party which has been permanently in government for 32 years, whatever the emblem and colours of the parties which have succeeded one another in power since the revolution.

Well, we shall not accept this! We shall not accept being parasitised and taken over by the men of the system, we shall not accept becoming merely another branch of the Party without a Name.

Because something else is needed, another way of doing politics! We cannot accept being the subjects of the same experiment, invariably harmful to Romania for 32 years! You cannot try the same recipe and expect a different “cake” to come out! If you put in poison, poison is what you will get!

Beyond that, the situation in which our country finds itself is obvious, as obvious as the causes which have led to this disaster.

That said, the rest of you, those who have not worked for the System and do not carry out its orders, we await beside us in the #CoalitionForTheNation, and we await your applications at https://coalitiapentrunatiune.ro/adeziune/.

147. 17 September 2022 — On honour and consistency

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

On honour, principles and the need to be consistent with oneself

Yesterday, in my capacity as president of the Coalition for the Nation, I issued a communiqué protesting against the censorship and discrimination instituted by the government of Romania through its senior officials.

As was natural, I condemned the official statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, made through its representative Ovidiu Raetchi, by which a citizen was forbidden to take part in a debate organised by an NGO, and this because of the differences of opinion which this citizen holds with regard to the political position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

In other words the MFA, at the highest level, discriminated against a Romanian citizen, limiting his right to free expression because that person holds opinions which are not “politically correct”, contrary to the official position of the Romanian state.

I know, we have grown used to censorship, which has unfortunately become a banal fact. But until now censorship came from private institutions, of the Facebook, press or television kind. Until now Censorship was not an official act, even if it was tacitly or discreetly imposed by the state.

Since the day before yesterday Censorship has become an official state policy, promoted publicly and without veils by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs itself, where diplomacy and elegance ought to clothe every form of expression.

Censorship and discrimination are being exhibited without shame and without a veil from the summit of the Romanian state.

Which compelled our reaction, that of the CpN! An official, firm and clear reaction to the official position of the MFA and implicitly of the Romanian state, a reaction by which we demanded the resignation of the political hack Ovidiu Raetchi, the man who publicly stated that he “goes along with the SRI”, and also of Minister Bogdan Aurescu, who permitted and/or did not immediately sanction so grave a lapse by one of his subordinates.

The purpose of our reaction was to defend the principles and values we have been defending for decades: the freedom and the dignity of the Romanian citizen, whatever his name may be.

I was surprised that many of our followers, some of them declared supporters and volunteers of the Sovereignty Act, leapt up as if scalded at this statement.

The citizen censored and discriminated against is Professor Adrian Severin. And the fact that Adrian Severin had a conviction under the securist-Kövesist regime seems to make him unworthy of our protection, and even to legitimise any abuse by the state, any act of censorship and discrimination to which he is now subjected, years after he served his sentence, whether that sentence was just or unjust.

And this situation, this position taken by some of our fellow citizens, seems to me more revolting than the discrimination and censorship of which I spoke above, all the more so as it comes from those with whom we fight on the same barricade against the abusive and undemocratic state.

That is why I must clarify certain matters:

We shall defend the rights and liberties of any Romanian citizen, whatever his name and whatever he may have done or said in the past.

We shall protest against any abuse by the Romanian state committed against any citizen, whoever may stand at the head of the Romanian state.

We shall acknowledge the merits of any Romanian citizen, whatever his sins and errors, just as we shall demand the punishment of any wrongdoing and shall pray for the forgiveness of the sins of any citizen whatever his name or his qualities.

We shall remain consistent in showing and condemning the abuses and crimes of the monstrous Băsescu-Kövesi regime, the root of evil in Romania.

We shall remain grateful to any person who helps us, and we shall leave no one on our team behind.

Therefore, remaining consistent with our own principles and values, we shall act in accordance with them, whatever the risks and “collateral losses” of image this may involve.

The fact that we have been in politics for a month has not turned us into demagogic opportunists devoid of values and principles.

We shall remain nailed to our principles, even if this exposes us and brings upon us the opprobrium of some in society, and even if some supporters may be ready to tear us apart for it.

And we shall remain consistent for the simple reason that this is what society needs today: consistency in principles, honour, the confession of the truth and courage in the defence of values… to the point of sacrifice.

As for the “sensitive subject” whose name or presence inflames any public discussion, Professor Adrian Severin, my personal position, which does not bind the party, remains unchanged: an accomplished professional, who was my teacher, a man of dazzling intelligence who served his sentence for a criminal offence of which he was convicted by the criminal Băsescu-Kövesi regime, and who is today a citizen with full civic rights.

Not least, Professor Adrian Severin was one of the few professionals who made an active and important contribution to the #SovereigntyAct.

And for that I shall always remain grateful to him.

And, in spite of all the above, yesterday’s communiqué was not about Adrian Severin, nor in defence of Adrian Severin!

It was in defence of the principles and values in which I believe and in which we all in the #CoalitionForTheNation believe.

And these values and principles will not be negotiable.

Just as the rights and liberties of any Romanian citizen cannot be made conditional upon his name, his social status, his convictions or even his past.

And these positions will remain non-negotiable and unchanged, whatever the risks or the costs.

148. 30 September 2022 — “The other day Rareș Bogdan appeared and told us how the gas from the Black Sea extracted by Blax…”

The other day Rareș Bogdan appeared telling us that the Black Sea gas extracted by Black Sea Oil and Gas has been contracted by the Engie group and is entirely exported, taken out of Romania. And that some very clear law ought to be applied which says that the state has priority in purchasing the gas extracted here, “and only if the Romanian state refuses that gas does one then go onto the international market.”

Only that this law does not exist, and these rules were excluded from Offshore Law no. 256 of 12 November 2018. You remember, it is that law about which I raised an outcry as early as 2018, and this year I, Dan Chitic, tabled a set of amendments in Parliament, all of them in favour of the Romanian state and the Romanian citizen, and all rejected wholesale by Parliament.

Moreover, when the criminal amendments to the Offshore Act made by Ciucă – Ciolacu – Hunor – Pambuccian were introduced in Parliament, in order to sweeten the bitter pill of betrayal the chiefs of the #CoalitionOfBetrayal introduced a paragraph which allowed Romania to benefit from its resources as a priority in the event of an “ENERGY CRISIS”. That proposal read as follows: “By derogation from paragraph (1) and/or (2), the Government, by Government Decision, on the proposal of the Ministry of Energy, in a situation of energy crisis and/or of distortion of Romania’s supply of natural gas, may take measures for the sale, as a priority in Romania, of the quantities of natural gas extracted from the perimeters in question.” It should have been paragraph 3 of Article 20 of the Law.

Only that… that paragraph did not pass Parliament. And so the last possibility for the Romanian citizen to benefit from Romanian gas disappeared! Even the notion of an “energy crisis” disappeared from the form voted by Parliament.

As for the “priority” of the Romanian State in purchasing Romania’s gas resources, this simply DOES NOT EXIST in the #OffshoreAct as amended this year by the treacherous parliamentary majority!!! In fact, the only mentions of the Romanian state in the Offshore Act are those in which the Romanian state undertakes to act free of charge, to exempt from the payment of taxes and royalties and possibly to compensate the multinational operators. That is all!

That is why I challenge Mr Rareș Bogdan to quote and indicate to us which are the legal provisions giving priority to the purchase of Romanian gas by the Romanian state. I make this challenge to any member of the government and of the treacherous majority which voted this Offshore Act, a shameful law by which we have completely and for ever given up the Black Sea gas to foreign operators.

The only solution which we in the #CoalitionForTheNation see in this situation of real energy crisis is the amendment of the Offshore Act as a matter of urgency, an amendment which, in the interest of the Romanian citizen and the Romanian state, will have to contain our proposed amendments, rejected at full speed by the members of Parliament of the coalition of betrayal.

Otherwise, the hypocrisy of certain propagandists will not be able to conceal the continuing betrayal of which the #CoalitionOfBetrayal now governing Romania is guilty!

In any case, when you look at your bills and see the exorbitant prices you are paying for the cold in your houses, you should know who is to blame: no, not Putin (for we could have been more than 90% independent of Russian gas), but the traitors who govern us and who have given away for nothing the gas and the resources that belong to you!

That is why we in the Coalition for the Nation will also be in the street on 2 October!

149. 5 October 2022 — On the speech of the director of the SRI

On the Demilitarisation Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Demilitarisation Act.

The domestic event of the year was, without doubt for me, yesterday’s speech by the director of the SRI, Eduard Hellvig. Through his statement he seems to have made a visible move to change the compass heading of national security policy, a change made in prime time, evidently — as in seamanship — so as to be seen from afar by the overwhelming majority of the population of Romania, which has begun to hold sovereigntist convictions.

“In this world, nationalism should not be merely the preserve of certain extreme discourses or approaches, but also a kind of instinct possessed by those of democratic, liberal thinking, who today have the mistaken tendency to move away from subjects such as patriotism or traditions.

(…) I believe that support for democracy can coexist with attachment to traditional values, religion, elements of national identity.”

(…) “I do not think there should be so great a separation between national pride and support for universal democratic principles. Thanks to these principles, European societies have managed to be the model of development to which so many millions of migrants aspire. And the cultivation of national pride should not be left solely to the approaches of extremists or populists. As a personal opinion, I believe that a moderate, balanced nationalism should be reassumed, redefined and recultivated also by those of democratic and balanced thinking in the western states, including in the Romania of the future.”

Moreover, the Director of the SRI also addressed themes which I have been pointing out for many, many years, and acknowledged the sins not only of the past but also of the present of the institution he leads, acknowledging even that he is aware that there is much mistrust in society regarding the number of “undercover officers” and their agenda in various strategic sectors, giving assurances that since the beginning of his mandate their activity has been carried out “strictly within the limits of the law”:

“I know the sins of which the institution is accused, some of them real, others attributed to us unjustly. I also know of the problems generated by some former SRI employees positioned either behind all sorts of people or gravitating around state-owned companies. I can tell you that we are aware of these problems and we shall do everything in our power to solve them”, declared Eduard Hellvig.

(…) “Politics and the activity of gathering intelligence must not overlap. Too often, however, the mistakes of the past also affect the behaviour of those in the present. Too many politicians, in previous decades, grew accustomed to receiving ‘indications’ or ‘suggestions’ about what they had to do. Politicians are elected by the people to think with their own minds, invested with their trust to take decisions about how Romania will look in the future, not merely to put out the fires of the present and to apply plans thought up by others. And yet too many want others to take decisions in their place, too many even expect to receive suggestions from the services. We shall not consolidate democracy until we encourage every institution to assume the mandate it has, without abuses and without excesses.”

Why have I given you all these quotations from the SRI director Eduard Hellvig?

So that you may see how significant is his change of attitude and direction by comparison with the position he expressed in 2014, when he said that “A return to nationalism would be tantamount to the end of the European Union, with all that this means for its citizens — from the abolition of borders and the aspiration to a better life, to the essential democratic liberties, first among them freedom of expression.”

After eight years, and after tens of percentage points of the population have swung from embracing the progressive-globalist current to the sovereigntist-conservative one, the position of the SRI director and of the institution appears to have pivoted… in other words, the Securitate, the System, appears to have gone over to the people’s side…

Is that so? Well, it will be simple to see whether these are merely political or politicking statements or whether they are indeed national security strategies which will really be implemented in the SRI’s activity.

For instance, it would be a good beginning if the system’s infiltrators in the press stopped labelling as a “Putinist” and an “enemy of the people” every person who supports sovereigntist-conservative policies. Another good step would be to permit access to the mainstream media, closed for years to any individual expressing views contrary to the System and to Globalism.

In fact a very good sign would have been if, at Sunday’s protest, the services had not stuck their tail in, had not divided the masses of people, had not set them against one another to the point of a brawl… yes, that would have been a good sign! But it was not so. The System could not restrain itself and remote-guided the pseudo-leaders of the “sovereigntists” in such a way that the people should see that the “sovereigntists” are capable neither of unity, nor of political vision, nor of viable solutions for the Nation… but only of scandal, shouting and stadium chants. That is, that they are not fit to take power, to take the reins of the country. That is what they wanted. And they achieved what they set out to do: the Securitate once again fulfilled its globalist role and discredited for a long time to come not only any idea of protest and street movement but also the idea of uniting the sovereigntist forces. Certainly, it had material to work with… but the System’s activity was transparently visible in the concertedly dissonant action of the frail parliamentary opposition in discrediting the idea of protest and of a sovereigntist movement.

Yes, until yesterday the System’s activity remained visibly in support of the progressive-colonialist forces, a fact also visible in the concerted action of the “press” in denigrating in recent days another conservative pillar — the most important one! — the Church, through the avalanche of revelations concerning the involvement of certain churchmen in all sorts of sexual scandals.

In short, all this happened until yesterday…

All this was, however, before yesterday’s speech by Hellvig. From today… everything will change!

As a lawyer I am used to giving pre-eminence to the presumption of good faith, and I shall do so even in the case of Mr Hellvig, director of the SRI… But this good faith can and must be proved. And the first proof, as I have said, would be an end to the persecution and denigration of sovereigntists and conservatives, and of churchmen too.

Then, more complicated and longer-term, would be the extraction and return to “barracks” of all the infiltrators in the press, in the business world and above all in the judiciary!!!

Equally important, essential even, would be the removal of the SRI and of the other services from the legislative process, for yes, many — most — of the laws are written by the men of the System.

Because in the end the supreme gesture of normality would be to bring Romania’s intelligence services up to NATO standards, that is, to demilitarise them…

In other words, Mr Hellvig ought to follow point by point the provisions of Chapter IV of the #SovereigntyAct… the very one which was denigrated in the press and rejected in Parliament by Mr Hellvig’s own men. But that too was before yesterday.

But I really do want to believe in the sincerity and good faith of the Director of the SRI.

However that may be, we in the #CoalitionForTheNation shall go #ToTheVeryEnd!

And whatever the Securitate may do, we #GiveRomaniaBackToRomanians!

150. 17 October 2022 — On the rejection of the Sovereignty Act

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

Why was the #SovereigntyAct rejected at full speed in the summer?

Because it went against the plans of the vipers of the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR, plans which today we have seen materialise in the adoption of Predoiu’s inJustice Laws, in the transformation of Romania into a colony without a Constitution!

Here is what obligations and penalties the Sovereignty Act provided in Article 9 for all public officials, including magistrates:

Law no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

( 8 ) In Article 297, after paragraph (2) a new paragraph is introduced, para. (3), reading as follows:

“( 3 ) The act of a public official in applying any legal provisions declared unconstitutional by Decision of the Constitutional Court of Romania is punishable by imprisonment from 7 to 10 years.”

Now it is clear why they did not want the #SovereigntyAct to become law, isn’t it?

Because their target, as early as the summer, was the Constitution itself and our rights and liberties!

When the #CoalitionForTheNation comes to govern, the Sovereignty Act will become Law and the Constitution the Supreme Law in Romania!

While we await the NATO attack on Russian troops in Ukraine launched from Romania, a fact which will automatically place us on the map of nuclear targets,

I propose that we make a Retrospective of the great achievements of Iohannis and of those in the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR against the Romanian people over the last two years:

- they put us in prison at home, terrorised us, kept our children away from school and impoverished us on the basis of Law 55/2020, adopted by them unanimously;

- they forcibly jabbed us, making us potential subjects of sudden departure;

- they took our money, 1 billion euros, to pay for 120 million jabs;

- they rejected the only law written by us, the people, the #SovereigntyAct;

- they gave away the Black Sea gas free of charge to foreigners by amending the #OffShoreAct;

- they denied us the right to justice, reintroducing the Securitate into the judiciary and de facto repealing the Constitution when they adopted the #PredoiuLaws…

Now we are waiting to be dragged into a war which is not ours and which may be fatal to us…

With so much fatalism and defeatism, so much cowardice and love of comfort… perhaps we deserve everything that is happening to us while we wait.

Let us put on a manea and grill a mititei… at least let us be hap-hap-hap-happy when what we are waiting for arrives!

The time has come for the real taxation of great fortunes and businesses.

In the coming days we in the Coaliția pentru Națiune will bring back into discussion the #ActForTheTaxationOfGreatFortunesAndBusinesses, supplemented with fiscal provisions for the effective and efficient assistance of all citizens who work and who have dependants.

I hope that on this draft too — essential for all of us — we shall find the parliamentary support we had for the #SovereigntyAct, for the draft amending and supplementing the #OffshoreAct in Romania’s interest, and for the #JusticeLaws.

154. 5 November 2022 — On the taxation of large fortunes

As I told you yesterday evening, the new draft law announced by the #CoalitionForTheNation as early as the summer — THE ACT ON SOLIDARITY AND ON THE TAXATION OF GREAT BUSINESSES AND FORTUNES (DRAFT LEGISLATION AMENDING THE FISCAL CODE — Law no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code) — is ready and will shortly be tabled in Parliament by deputy Dumitru Coarnă (a fact confirmed by him live, and to Mrs Adriana Bahmuțeanu).

I set out below the full text as well as a link to the document in PDF format.

“THE ACT ON SOLIDARITY AND ON THE TAXATION OF GREAT BUSINESSES AND FORTUNES

DRAFT LEGISLATION AMENDING THE FISCAL CODE

Starting from the constitutional principle that Romania is a social state (Article 1(3) of the Constitution) built on the solidarity of its citizens (Article 4(1) of the Constitution),

taking into account the need to simplify tax collection and make it more efficient, a fact apt to increase predictability and also competitiveness in the economy,

having regard to the need to encourage the birth rate and also to increase the degree of social protection which may be granted indirectly by the state through family members,

and also to the need to encourage work and to reduce the share of social assistance,

the present amendment of Law 227/2015 is adopted:

After Article 18, Articles 18¹ and 18² are introduced, reading as follows:

“ART. 18¹ Special regime for taxpayers with annual revenues of over 10,000,000 Euros

1. Taxpayers who have obtained revenues exceeding the equivalent in lei of 10,000,000 euros are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 1% applied to the revenues recorded. The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

2. Taxpayers who have obtained revenues exceeding the equivalent in lei of 100,000,000 euros are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 2% applied to the revenues recorded. The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

3. Taxpayers who have obtained revenues exceeding the equivalent in lei of 1,000,000,000 euros are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 3% applied to the revenues recorded. The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

ART. 18² — Special regime for taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives

“Taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives and having annual revenues greater than 10,000,000 euros, including legal persons which obtain such revenues under an association contract for the activities provided for in this article, are liable to pay a tax at the rate of 5% applied to the revenues recorded.”

Article 101(2) of Law 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code is amended and shall read as follows:

“(2) The tax shall be calculated by applying a rate of 10% to the monthly taxable income from pensions and, respectively, a rate of 90% to the monthly taxable income from pensions exceeding 11 gross national minimum wages.”

Article III. After TITLE X, TITLE X¹ is introduced, entitled “THE TAX ON GREAT FORTUNES”, reading as follows:

“Article 500¹ Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the securities and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 10,000,000 Euros are liable to pay a solidarity tax amounting to 1% a year of the total value of the fortune.

Article 500² Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the securities and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 100,000,000 Euros are liable to pay a solidarity tax amounting to 2% a year of the total value of the fortune.

Article 500³ Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the securities and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 1,000,000,000 Euros are liable to pay a solidarity tax amounting to 3% a year of the total value of the fortune.

Article 500⁴ The exchange rate for determining the equivalent in euros is the one valid at the close of the financial year in which the revenues and the gains were recorded.

Article 500⁵ 1.) Taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, cumulated with the value of the gains, of the movable and immovable assets and of the buildings existing in their patrimony on 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 10,000,000 Euros are obliged to draw up an annual declaration of assets; the annual declaration of assets relating to the last amended fiscal year shall be submitted by 25 March inclusive of the following year.

Declarations of assets shall be made in writing, on the declarant’s own responsibility, and shall include the rights and obligations of the declarant, of the spouse and of the dependent children, in accordance with Annex no. 1.”

Article 77(2), second paragraph, is amended and shall read as follows:

“For taxpayers who obtain gross monthly incomes of between 1,951 lei and 20,000 lei, the personal deduction shall be granted as follows:

for taxpayers with one dependant — 10% of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with two dependants — 20% of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with three dependants — 30% of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with four or more dependants — 50% of the income tax due.”

155. 14 November 2022 — “The other day the people at Hotnews took an interview with me”

The other day the people at Hotnews interviewed me

Yes!!! Hotnews!!! You know as well as I do who they are and what interests they represent — a fact revealed without any modesty by the man who commented on the context and on what the interviewees said, an old Băsescu activist, the quintessence of anti-national progressivism and of neo-colonialism. But we shall not dwell on that… what matters is the signal! The System is aware of the trend. Which means it will do everything it can to strike at us, to discredit us, to divide us.

Another aspect important for us is that in the “category” of extra-parliamentary “small parties”, the #CoalitionForTheNation was the first to be mentioned. That may mean something too…

I set out below what they selected from what I said — a few sentences out of nearly an hour of interview — as well as the link at which you can read the whole article.

“Dan Chitic, the leader of the Coalition for the Nation, says that his formation is a conservative one and fits perfectly into the sovereigntist current. Indeed, the Coalition for the Nation promoted and tabled in Parliament the sovereignty act, which was rejected by the members of Parliament after the intervention of the PSD and PNL leaders.

* Dan Chitic, Coalition for the Nation: “Sovereigntism, for us, is putting the national interest before everything else and having the power to decide, even if you decide wrongly. Sovereigntism comes from sovereign, the royal right to decide, and that right belongs to the people, and it means that we Romanians have the right to choose according to our concrete and immediate interests, not the interests of a broad and extremely vaguely defined family such as the European family. (…)

* When you have a family that humiliates you and leaves you waiting at the gates of Schengen and imposes on you mechanisms for supervising your justice system — a justice system which works better here than in the Netherlands — and then asks you for solidarity and asks you to give from your own resources for the common good… that is not fair. If Trump could say America First and was not arrested, we too can say ‘Romania First’.”

In Dan Chitic’s view, the sovereignty act is the basis of a platform which could bring together the sovereigntist parties of Romania.

“We have sympathisers of sovereigntism and conservatism amounting to something like 60% of the electorate. We ought to set ourselves as a realistic objective the winning over of 25–30%. As far as I am concerned there have been only informal discussions, not institutional ones, about creating a sovereigntist pole. If we manage to get past our vanities we could create a common platform bringing together 25–30% of the electorate. Any future political collaboration with AUR will be carried out only on the basis of a political agreement registered as an alliance with the court, not on a handshake, not by standing on joint lists, because we have painful memories of one another”, Dan Chitic believes.”

156. 19 December 2022 — On the need for a new Constitution

On the Demilitarisation Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Demilitarisation Act.

Thirty-three years after the Revolution, the last solution: #ANewConstitution!

Now, ten days after the historic humiliation to which Romania was subjected and

#TwentyYearsOn from the last revision, it is obvious that the present disaster in which Romanian society finds itself, the pauperisation, the abuse and the humiliation to which the Romanian citizen is subjected, and even the colonial status imposed from outside through an inept and treacherous political class — all of it has one primary cause, one cause of all causes: the Constitution!

It is the incoherences and the deficiencies of the Constitution that permitted the ceding of national sovereignty — a ceding which consisted in the alienation for nothing of our resources and riches, the violation of our fundamental rights, the abuse of power by presidents, the anti-national law-making carried out by every government of the last decades on the basis of an abusive “legislative delegation”, and the abandonment of the national interest in favour of the interests of national and supra-national super-powers.

The present Constitution was conceived in 2003 to be a constitution of “Euro-Atlantic integration”, an integration achieved at any price, on our knees, at the price of giving up the defence of our legitimate interests, of our dignity, of national sovereignty.

Now, #TwentyYearsOn, when we are already members (second-class ones, unfortunately) of the Euro-Atlantic alliances into which we hoped in good faith to integrate in 2003, after we have paid a heavy price for entry into the “Euro-Atlantic family” by ceding resources, riches and, above all, #Sovereignty,

#TheTimeHasCome to bring back to the fore the national interest, the interest of the Romanian citizen.

For these reasons, we in the #CoalitionForTheNation are launching the project of a broad revision of the Constitution, a project intended to turn the #ConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration of 2003 into the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty, into the #ConstitutionOfNationalDignity regained in 2023, without this meaning that we leave the alliances of which we are now part at international level.

To this end, the principal measures we have in view are:

- The total prohibition of the extradition of Romanian citizens;

- The prohibition of subjecting Romanian citizens to any kind of experimental treatment;

- The prohibition of access to appointed and elected public offices for the men of the “System” for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the capacity they held;

- Constitutional regulation of the traditional family based on freely consented marriage between a man and a woman;

- Reduction of the president’s mandate from 5 years to 4 years;

- Limitation of the President’s powers in favour of Parliament;

- Strict limitation of the government’s legislative delegation;

- Prohibition of regulating by emergency ordinance the abolition, alienation or concession of assets in public ownership;

- Limitation in time of appointed public offices;

- Acceptance on the national territory in peacetime of foreign troops only after obtaining the prior consent of Parliament;

- Inclusion in the Supreme Council of National Defence of the heads of the two chambers of Parliament;

- Limitation in time of the mandate of the heads of the secret services;

- The obligation to update the Royalties owed under concession contracts to the level of European prices every five years.

- Romania’s participation in the international bodies and alliances of which it is part, with observance of the Constitution of Romania and in the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people;

- Establishment as a constitutional principle that accession, the ratification of revisions of founding treaties and Romania’s withdrawal from international Bodies and Alliances shall be effected only by a law adopted through the sovereign decision of the Romanian people expressed by referendum.

- Strict annual control by the Court of Accounts over public resources;

- The appointment of three judges to the Constitutional Court by the Economic and Social Council on the proposal of civil society.

- Facilitation of the review of constitutionality by reducing the number of deputies and senators who may refer a matter to the Constitutional Court, and the inclusion of ordinances among the normative acts whose constitutionality may be examined at any time at the request of members of Parliament.

- Extension of the review of constitutionality to treaties already ratified.

The specific measures proposed in the present draft revision of the Constitution do not seek to change the institutional architecture of the Romanian state — which would require a far broader revision or even a new Constitution — but to repair the numerous specific problems which have caused the marasmus of Romanian society under the rule of the Constitutions of 1991 and 2003 respectively.

The present proposals for amending the Constitution are apt to transform Romania from a “semi-presidential” republic into a “semi-parliamentary” one in which, although the President of Romania continues to be elected directly by the people, Parliament — as the representative body through which the Romanian people exercises its sovereignty — will acquire the pre-eminent role in the Romanian state. At the same time, limiting the possibility of delegating legislative powers to the executive, which will have as its direct effect the restriction of the executive’s right to issue ordinances and emergency ordinances, is apt to consolidate the separation of powers in the state and strengthens Parliament’s role as legislator while at the same time conferring on it an enhanced role in supervising the activity of the executive.

Not least, the demilitarisation of the intelligence services, the prohibition on participation in political life by persons who have been part of the “system”, the limitation in time of the duration of appointed public offices (all of them directly inspired by fundamental rules of our strategic partner the USA), as well as the strict, obligatory annual control by the Court of Accounts over public resources, are all strictly necessary measures for making Romanian society transparent, normal and democratic.

#TwentyYearsOn, the #Constitution2023 will have to restore to the Romanian people dignity, justice and the power to hope. That is why the Romanian citizen, the addressee and final beneficiary of this project, is called upon to analyse and debate our proposals, to comment on and correct the articles we propose.

That is why, beginning today, 19 December 2022, we shall launch a group for discussion and comment in which all political and non-political forces, parliamentary or non-parliamentary, and all citizens are called upon to express their opinions and to make further proposals for amendment if these are considered necessary. Observations will have to be made on a form which we shall make available on the group https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

At the same time, we call upon all specialists in constitutional law to express their informed opinions and to take an active part in this public debate, which will last until about the middle of February.

That is why, from today onwards, the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty is no longer merely the project proposed by the #CoalitionForTheNation, but will be the project of the whole of society, of all those who take part in the debates and in the gathering of signatures under Article 150 of the Constitution.

We call in this way upon all patriotic and sovereigntist forces, political or non-political, parliamentary or non-parliamentary, to join this enormous effort to bring about the change we all desire, the change for the better in Romanian society for which we still hope.

500,000 signatures will be needed… an immense number, but not impossible to gather! For we must understand that only we, the citizens, can force change, and this for the simple reason that in Parliament we do not have “a quarter of the number of deputies or of senators” who would be patriotic enough to promote these strictly necessary amendments which we must bring to the Constitution.

The revision of the Constitution is an immense challenge for Romanian society. But this challenge must be accepted and assumed, for the amendments must be made before the Presidential elections of 2024, when the elected President will have to begin his 4-year mandate, a mandate which he will have to end in the same year as the mandates of the members of Parliament elected to the future Parliament, in 2028.

Yes, it is a historic window of opportunity which we have no right to ignore! That is why I ask all of you who sincerely love this country to set aside any pride or stirring of vanity, to set aside natural personal sympathies or antipathies, to become involved in this project and to organise yourselves so as to be able to gather the immense number of signatures needed for the revision of the Constitution.

Let us show them that power really does belong to the people!

Let us, the people, decide how we want our Romania to be: a dignified and sovereign Romania!

157. 20 December 2022 — On the accusations levelled at the author

On the Solidarity Act: the full text of the draft — see the page The Solidarity Act.

Much has been said about Chitic in the twelve years since he appeared in public life. It has been said that he is mad, that he is stupid, that he is an amateur, naive, violent, selfish, villainous, conceited, a Pharisee, a hypocrite, a liar… the list is so long that whole pages could be written with nothing but the epithets so generously bestowed on him. And all of them, every one, can be found on Chitic’s own social-media pages, since whether out of laziness — as some would say — or out of shamelessness — as others would say — or perhaps merely out of a bizarre fidelity to the principle of freedom of expression, Chitic has never deleted the critical, sometimes downright scabrous comments made about him; for the only comments ever deleted were those that were racist, antisemitic, or that attacked religious beliefs and traditions, of whatever kind they might be.

Of late, however, a new epithet has appeared in certain Facebook circles, and this “compliment” comes from what might have been called “his own camp”: “Chitic, the System’s man” (and these too you can find among the comments, for they have not been deleted either)! And it has not merely appeared in passing: it is a “current” which some wish to enlarge and intensify. And intensive work is being done on it!

This classification cannot be left as it is, for it is not a simple opinion perhaps based on a personal antipathy, or perhaps on a state of irritation — for yes, Chitic is neither handsome nor charming, but small, unattractive and rather surly and cantankerous, which might justify any condemnation of the infamous character.

NO! “Chitic, the System’s man” cannot be filed under “and others”, for it is an assertion which can be analysed factually, on the public words and deeds of the man who over time has been labelled either a KGB man, or a CIA man, or even a Mossad man, or, more recently, “the System’s man” — that is, either an SRI man or an SIE man, or in any case the man of one of our many “intelligence” structures.

Well, let us see what might determine this conviction, on what this opinion might be founded.

Could it be the fact that only the other day it was announced that his public Facebook page would shortly be shut down?

Or perhaps the fact that in the latest project he has launched for public discussion, “Chitic, the System’s man” has just proposed that the demilitarisation of the intelligence services be regulated at Constitutional level — in the same place where he proposed the introduction of an article forbidding the men of the system to enter political life both during their “service” and in the first five years after leaving the system? Yes, it is clear: the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty was written by men of the system who want to give Transylvania to the Hungarians… just as the referendum on the traditional family failed so that Dragnea should not escape prison!

Could it be the “Solidarity Act — the Act on the taxation of great fortunes and businesses”? — a law written back in the summer and offered to any member of Parliament willing to table it for debate in Parliament, a member of Parliament who to this day has not come forward…

Or perhaps the #OffShoreAct is the cause of Chitic being labelled “the System’s man” — a law which he was the first, yes, the very first, to oppose, as early as 2018. The spring of 2018, to be precise, when it was voted in the Senate in Tudose’s version, after which it was sweetened by Dragnea, because those in the #CoalitionOfBetrayal — indeed its very chiefs Ciucă – Ciolacu – Kelemen, through Virgil Popescu’s pen — moulded it to be 100% friendly to the operators. Incidentally, it was also “Chitic, the System’s man” who this year sent into Parliament the only set of amendments which would have turned it into a law serving the national interest — amendments which were actually read out in the plenary of Parliament and rejected by the Overwhelming parliamentary majority. And they were rejected while “Chitic the System man” was protesting at the gates of Parliament in the rain together with a handful of people… Yes, that must be it! In any case, it is interesting to note how in the last ten days the mainstream media has discovered this terrible act of betrayal about which “the System’s man” has been shouting for four years… naturally, being the System’s man, no television station invites him to say what he has been saying for four years!

Another indication might be that this same “man of the system” howled in despair against what he called the #PredoiuLaws, a set of so-called “justice” laws by which the Constitution and the Decisions of the Constitutional Court and of the High Court became optional for judges, and by which the door is thrown wide open to the “collaboration” of the services with the “independent judiciary”.

No — the #SovereigntyAct must be the reason! That draft law for which he gathered 33,000 signatures and which he took into Parliament only for it to be rejected, this same year, by the same Coalition of Betrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR… a law by which 1 law was repealed, 19 laws and ordinances amended, 80 articles amended, added or repealed, including those providing once again — what do you know? — for the demilitarisation of the intelligence services (Chitic, this “System man”, is probably desperate to become a civilian!), or for the prohibition of clear-cutting the forests, or for the repatriation of the gold, or for the prohibition of discrimination on the ground of the administration of medical treatments… That too is an indication!

Or perhaps he is suspected of being “the System’s man” because he has no longer been invited to say anything since roughly the period when the signature-gathering campaign for the #SovereigntyAct was launched.

Or perhaps because he dared to found a party, the #CoalitionForTheNation — financed from his own money and sabotaged in every possible way from every side — a party at whose head he was the first to dare say “#ROexit?” as early as 2017, although then, as now, he always put a question mark after it… like any securist, of course.

Or perhaps because he openly and publicly opposed the Kövesist terror for years, a period in which he spent most of his time in the television studios of those who had far more, far greater and far more personal stakes than a principled but extremely risky struggle for justice, for freedom and for the rule of law…

Or perhaps because as early as 2010 he dared, like a true “man of the System”, to confront Băsescu in person — which brought him not merely a slap from Băsescu but one from the whole system, the proof of which stands to this day in the recordings of Blejnar looking for Chitic over “financings”.

These and many other things might stand as solid arguments for describing him, Chitic, as stupid, mad, an amateur or naive. That is probably why Chitic has never responded in any way to these compliments and does not delete the comments of “friends” who caress him with such epithets.

But the label “Chitic, the System’s man” is one Chitic cannot understand. Nor accept. And it really does give him insomnia! Perhaps the year has been too long, too hard, and perhaps he is tired. That, probably, is why this is also the first time he has written about the monstrosities of which he has been accused over the years, sometimes by former close allies (too close!) who have thrown tons of slops, foul gossip and scabrous inventions. He never replied, in any way! But this business of “Chitic, the System’s man” was too much, the drop that filled the cup of total disgust, which had to be expressed.

And perhaps it was tiredness and nausea that made Chitic write this post about himself in the third person… and that too is a first!

Perhaps this was the only way I could speak to you about the filth in its pure state into which I consciously agreed to enter over the last twelve years of my life, and about an absurd struggle which I still obstinately wage against an abject system and an equally abject indifference.

I am not complaining… I merely concede the point to those who have labelled me mad, stupid, an amateur or naive! But this business of “Chitic, a man of the System” I really do not accept. And I do not permit it!

To be labelled “a man of the System” is by far the gravest insult that could ever be offered me — ever!, as our strategic partner would say.

And that is too much even for me!

158. 20 December 2022 — “Because Parliament will have to decide what troops will be on the territory of Romania before …”

Because Parliament will have to decide what troops are to be on the territory of Romania before they arrive!

Because we must never again be faced with a fait accompli, because Parliament must never again accept troops already present on the territory of the country!

That is why the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty expressly provides:

Art. 118(5): “(5) In peacetime, foreign troops may enter, be stationed on, carry out operations on or pass through the territory of Romania only with the prior consent of Parliament and under the conditions of the law or of the international treaties to which Romania is a party.”

Let us show them that power really does belong to the people!

Let us, the people, decide how we want our Romania to be: a dignified and sovereign Romania!

159. 21 December 2022 — “Even the discussions around the #ConstituțiaSuveranității project badly frighten the #System…”

Even the discussions around the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty Project badly frighten the #SecuristSystem in Romania!

Why? Here is a concise explanation in five quotations:

“No one may be subjected to torture or to any kind of inhuman, degrading or experimental punishment or treatment.” — proposed amendment to Art. 22(2).

“The following may not belong to political parties: the judges of the Constitutional Court, the ombudsmen, national or European magistrates, active members of the army and of the intelligence services, police officers and other categories of public servants established by organic law. These professional categories may not belong to political parties and may not hold appointed or elected public office for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the exercise of those offices.” — proposed amendment to Art. 40(3).

“The family is founded on the freely consented marriage between a man and a woman, on their equality and on the right and duty of the parents to ensure the upbringing, education and instruction of the children.” — proposed amendment to Art. 48(1), openly borrowed from the drafts of the Coalition for the Family.

“(3) Appointed public offices, or the offices and capacities filled by direct designation, for which no competition is organised, may be held for a mandate of at most 4 years which may be renewed only once, unless another duration of the mandate or number of mandates is provided for by the present Constitution.” — proposed amendment to Art. 116(2).

“(4) The intelligence services and those assimilated to them shall be organised exclusively on a civilian basis, under the conditions of the law. The organisation of military or paramilitary activities outside a state authority is forbidden.

In peacetime, foreign troops may enter, be stationed on, carry out operations on or pass through the territory of Romania only with the prior consent of Parliament and under the conditions of the law or of the international treaties to which Romania is a party.” — proposed amendments to Art. 118(4) and (5).

“The royalties owed under concession contracts shall be updated to the level of the prices applied in the European Union every five years.” — proposed addition to Art. 136(4).

And the reasons are far more numerous — you will see…

But even these alone would have been enough to unleash the wave of personal attacks against the initiator, or the incitement of useful idiots to come out and say on the “networks” that “if we revise the constitution we give the Hungarians the chance to take Transylvania from us!” — this on the model of “if you vote in the referendum on the family, Dragnea gets off!” — all this although Article 152 of the Constitution, “Limits of revision”, expressly provides that:

“(1) The provisions of the present Constitution concerning the national, independent, unitary and indivisible character of the Romanian state, the republican form of government, the integrity of the territory, the independence of the judiciary, political pluralism and the official language may not form the object of revision.

Likewise, no revision may be made if it results in the suppression of the fundamental rights and liberties of citizens or of their guarantees.

The Constitution may not be revised during a state of siege or a state of emergency, nor in time of war.”

But what does it matter… “if we revise the Constitution we lose Transylvania and we lose the rights we have as well”, say the system’s trumpets in chorus. “Look how good the Constitution was… it saved us during the pandemic!” say others… Yes, it was so good that we were shut up in our houses for two years for a cold and were forced to inject ourselves with experimental serums so that we are now dying in droves. But… “the Constitution was good, it saved us!” What saving was done was done by a handful of people for those who wished to be saved, not by the Constitution…

Finally, there is also the category of useful idiots who say “now is not the moment!”… really, but when? After we have elected for five years the President proposed and permitted by the System? Would it not be better to have the system’s servant at the “head of state” for 4 years… perhaps we shall have better luck with the next one! For YES, the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty expressly provides for the shortening of the President’s mandate as well:

“(1) The mandate of the President of Romania is 4 years and is exercised from the date of taking the oath.” — proposed amendment to paragraph 1 of Art. 83.

You see, these are only some of the reasons why the System would never have wanted the #RevisionOfTheConstitution to be discussed — not now, and not a #Revision made by (truly) civil society!

Never mind! We shall discuss it. And we shall do so in detail, article by article, beginning 9 January 2023. Until then I invite you to read the amendments to the Constitution in full at https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat/1880.

160. 22 December 2022 — On ROexit and the referendum

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the draft — see the page The Constitution of Sovereignty.

On “#ROexit?” and the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty!

You know my view on ROexit; I shall not take up the arguments again here but will only point out that I was the first, back in 2017, to launch this “slogan-concept”, and that from then until now I have always placed a question mark beside ROexit. Why? Simple: because only the people can and must decide such a matter.

But in order ever to decide, the people will have to be able to organise a referendum on this theme, for at present, under the rule of this Constitution, that is absolutely impossible. That is where the idea of the necessity of amending the Constitution started from: the people must be able to organise a referendum on this theme when the majority considers it opportune. That is what is written in our draft revision of the Constitution. For these reasons, as I have said, we in the #CoalitionForTheNation have launched the project of a broad revision of the Constitution, a project intended to turn the #ConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration of 2003 into the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty, into the #ConstitutionOfNationalDignity regained in 2023, without this meaning that we leave the alliances of which we are now part at international level.

Even so, many ardent supporters of ROexit, without so much as reading the draft revision, say that we do not need a revision but simply to leave the EU directly… Only that this is impossible under the present wording of the Constitution: any referendum organised on this theme would be declared unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court for the simple reason that the present Constitution, in Title VI “Euro-Atlantic integration”, provides only for the manner in which we integrate, and not for what should be done, and how, if we wish to leave the alliances of which we are part.

That is why we had to change Title VI entirely — from its title to its content.

I set out below the text as it is proposed to be revised and the text of the present constitution:

“Title VI — Romania’s participation in international bodies and alliances

Art. 148 — The supremacy of the Constitution and of the sovereign interest of the people in the conduct of international relations

Romania shall fulfil exactly and in good faith the commitments it has undertaken and the obligations incumbent upon it under the Founding Treaties of the international bodies and alliances it has joined, with observance of the Constitution of Romania and in the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people.

Art. 149 — Accession, ratification of the revision of founding treaties and Romania’s withdrawal from international bodies and alliances

Romania may accede to international bodies and alliances, may ratify the revision of founding treaties or may withdraw from the international bodies and alliances of which it is part, by a law adopted through the sovereign decision of the Romanian people expressed by referendum.

The referendum for accession, for ratification of the amendment of founding treaties or for withdrawal from the Bodies and Alliances of which Romania is part may be initiated by the President of Romania on the proposal of the Government, by at least one quarter of the number of deputies or of senators, or by at least 500,000 citizens with the right to vote. Citizens who manifest and exercise the right provided for in the present article must come from at least half of the counties of the country, and in each of these counties or in the municipality of Bucharest at least 20,000 signatures must be registered in support of this initiative.

The draft law providing for accession, for ratification of the amendment of founding treaties or for withdrawal from the Bodies and Alliances of which Romania is part shall be adopted by the Chamber of Deputies and by the Senate with a majority of at least two thirds of the number of members of each Chamber.

If no agreement is reached through the mediation procedure, the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, in joint sitting, shall decide by the vote of at least three quarters of the number of deputies and senators.

The law on accession to international bodies and alliances, on ratification of the revision of their founding treaties, or on withdrawal from the bodies and alliances of which Romania is part shall be adopted after its approval by referendum, organised within at most 30 days of the date of adoption of the draft or of the proposal of revision, and shall enter into force on the date of publication in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, of the decision of the Constitutional Court confirming the results of the referendum.

The rejection by referendum of the ratification of the revised founding Treaties of the organisations and alliances to which Romania is a party shall have as its effect Romania’s withdrawal from those international Organisations or Alliances.”

The text of the present Constitution, of the 2003 #ConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration:

Romania’s accession to the founding treaties of the European Union, with a view to transferring certain powers to the community institutions and to exercising in common with the other member states the competences provided for in those treaties, shall be effected by a law adopted in the joint sitting of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, with a majority of two thirds of the number of deputies and senators.

As a result of accession, the provisions of the founding treaties of the European Union, as well as the other binding community regulations, shall take precedence over contrary provisions of domestic law, with observance of the provisions of the act of accession.

The provisions of paragraphs (1) and (2) shall apply, correspondingly, to accession to the acts revising the founding treaties of the European Union.

Parliament, the President of Romania, the Government and the judicial authority shall guarantee the fulfilment of the obligations resulting from the act of accession and from the provisions of paragraph (2).

The Government shall transmit to the two Chambers of Parliament the drafts of binding acts before they are submitted for approval to the institutions of the European Union.

Accession to the North Atlantic Treaty

Romania’s accession to the North Atlantic Treaty shall be effected by a law adopted in the joint sitting of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, with a majority of two thirds of the number of deputies and senators.”

You will find the differences for yourselves. And you will decide whether we must revise the Constitution, whether we need #ANewConstitution.

Let us show them that power really does belong to the people!

Let us, the people, decide how we want our Romania to be: a dignified and sovereign Romania!

162. 29 December 2022 — “The year that begins in a few days will be a turning point, for after 2 years of pandemic …”

The year that begins in a few days will be a turning point, for after two years of pandemic (isn’t it true that you have almost forgotten that only a year ago you were “responsible” and “showing that you cared”?) and a year of war in eastern Europe, 2023 will come to seal the changes that have begun. I shall try to tell it to you briefly, with the note that… I sincerely hope I am wrong about everything I write below.

On the one hand, the West, the “Small Planet”, will do everything in its power to win the war in Ukraine. It is a matter of life and death for the west, since a military failure would hasten the loss of hegemony of the USA and its allies over the planet. That is why the conflict will grow sharper in the first part of the year, fed massively by the west with weapons, technology and intelligence. On the other side, beyond the territorial stakes and Putin’s game with the west, Russia too cannot afford to lose in Ukraine, since its military force alongside its natural resources are the only arguments conferring on it an important position on the “Big Planet”, a position which would immediately be taken over entirely by China in the event of a Russian military failure (this is, moreover, the reason why China does not support Russia militarily). In other words, a defeat in Ukraine would throw Russia out of the great games on both the Small Planet and the Big Planet, and the defeat could be fatal to Russia — as my friend Dan Diaconu rightly remarked in his article today. That is why there are enough arguments to make a major escalation of the conflict around May or June not merely possible but even probable, and to make the use of tactical nuclear weapons probable if Russia does not manage to conquer the four Ukrainian provinces by conventional means.

At the same time, independently of the evolution of the war, the tendency of the states of the Big Planet to organise themselves around the BRICS structure will continue. The International Monetary System as we know it will be shaken (still more) violently, a fact which will accentuate the economic crisis towards which we of the Small Planet are heading at increasing speed. Obviously, a victorious Russia will catalyse this process and hasten the major rupture between the two “Planets”.

And speaking of the crisis… the crisis will not come. The crisis is already here; only many still refuse to accept it. On the “Small Planet” the crisis is masked by the hundreds of billions pumped into the west’s war effort. But this money, made with a pen and turned into armaments and aid for Ukraine, will accentuate the already galloping inflation and will throw into poverty tens of millions of citizens of the “civilised world”, who will see a lifetime’s savings melt away within a few years… After the first year, more than 20% of the real value of savings and incomes has already evaporated. Consumption will fall. It will be said that this is a consequence of the population becoming aware of ecological problems… False! It will be nothing but poverty.

Poverty which will also bring instability and revolts on the “Small Planet”. Hence the western establishment’s fear of losing control over rebellious populations. Hence the tightening of control over the population and the sharpening of censorship. Hence… dictatorship. Yes, in almost the whole of the west in 2023 the screw will be tightened hard and rights and liberties will be drastically restricted.

As for us, here in Romania, we already feel all this. For, from our status as a fourteenth-rate Colony, not only can we not influence the major decisions of the world’s betters — which is obvious! — but we shall not even try to act in the national interest, slaloming between the interests and vanities of the great. NO! We shall merely follow exactly the directions traced out by the greater or lesser glow-worms. The only unknown is how zealous the local gauleiters will be in carrying out the orders received. And I believe they will be more servile and more treacherous than ever. That is why the coming year will be a “special” year.

The System will be more and more present and more and more visible — a fact confirmed also by the amendments to the code of criminal procedure made yesterday, in the last government meeting of this year.

It, the System, will prepare Iohannis’s replacement. And it will show him to us. Very well, two or even three versions of the same doll will be offered, each version coloured differently, of course. At the same time, the “boys with blue eyes” will annihilate every possible alternative: they will divide it, demonise it or ridicule it, or both at once — anything to hold back a feeling of discontent which will follow a rising trend as financial problems multiply.

The #CoalitionOfBetrayal, although it will remain functional de facto, will break up, probably in the first half of the year. No, they will not quarrel over the national interest; they will have to mime a struggle led by the champions of the coming presidential elections, two of the “dolls” of which I spoke.

Our resources will continue to be “outsourced” out of “solidarity” with the old continent, of course!

We shall be still poorer, still more frightened, still more divided!

So much for the “prophecies”. For beyond the rather sombre landscape which I believe the future holds for us, we shall have to do what we know to be right and what we know we must do. Whatever the chances of success, whatever the utterly disproportionate strength of the adversary. The truth must be confessed at any price, the good must be done at any risk!

That is why next year too we shall go on doing what we have to do:

The #CoalitionForTheNation will launch the most interesting programme of… but I shall tell you about that soon.

And, as you already know… the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty will enter public debate from January, debates which will themselves displease the system — I know that! But they will also give rise to many discussions and polemics among people of good faith, discussions which will have the gift of awakening consciences… perhaps even the national conscience. For yes, I assure you that the discussions concerning the #Constitution2023 will mark the coming year (let that too be part of the “prophecy”).

Finally, as the poet says: “De-o fi una, de-o fi alta… Ce e scris și pentru noi, / Bucuroși le-om duce toate, de e pace, de-i război.” (Mihai Eminescu, Scrisoarea III. In the author’s literal rendering: “Be it one thing, be it another… whatever is written for us too, / we shall bear it all gladly, whether it be peace or war.”)

163. 30 December 2022 — “Two days ago a piece of news of capital importance appeared, which all too few have unders…”

Two days ago a piece of news of capital importance appeared, which too few have ventured to comment upon:

“Government sources revealed to Inpolitics this morning that the primary purpose of the legislative amendments of 17 November is to permit the training of Ukrainian military troops in Romania. A decision which the Ciucă government put off as long as it could, because of the possible consequences. Until it could put it off no longer!”

But what “legislative amendments” are these?

In reality, the permission for Ukrainians to train in Romania comes as a result of amendments made to a ministerial Order of 2014 — YES, A MINISTERIAL ORDER!!! — which provides:

“(1) Applications for obtaining approval for the entry/exit and stationing of armed forces belonging to the member states of NATO, of the European Union and of the Partnership for Peace, or to states with which Romania has concluded agreements in the field, or for their transit of the national territory, with a view to participation in exercises, training and ceremonial activities on the territory of Romania

or for the purpose of participation in operations carried out outside the national territory, (!!!!!!!!)

shall be submitted at least 4 working days before the planned date of entry into Romania of the forces, of the military products and equipment or of the material goods for ensuring support, as the case may be.”

Thus, as Bogdan Tiberiu Iacob rightly observed, “among the members of the Partnership for Peace who would have this right is Ukraine which, thanks to the order of 17 November, could theoretically prepare ripostes against Russia or Belarus involving Romanian territory, for preparation or for launching. Just as Russia or Belarus could be attacked from our territory by armed forces from NATO, from EU states which are not NATO members, and from other states with which we have concluded various conventions.”

In conclusion… we are preparing to enter a war… without the consent of parliament, but merely through an amendment made to a Ministerial Order…

You see, that is why all the securists writhe when we say that it must be written explicitly into the Constitution that

“(5) In peacetime, foreign troops may enter, be stationed on, carry out operations on or pass through the territory of Romania only with the prior consent of Parliament and under the conditions of the law or of the international treaties to which Romania is a party.”

thus amending paragraph 5 of Article 118 of the Constitution.

Very well — the slaves in our services, those who have turned Romania into a fourteenth-rate colony, are also disturbed by the amendment I have proposed to para. 4 of the same article of the Constitution: “(4) The intelligence services and those assimilated to them shall be organised exclusively on a civilian basis, under the conditions of the law. The organisation of military or paramilitary activities outside a state authority is forbidden.”

I told you: the debates on the proposed amendments to the Constitution, entitled the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty — debates which will begin in January — will give the System and the system men great headaches…

Because they have no arguments against the amendments we are proposing. Because the amendments are necessary and strictly in our interest, the interest of the citizens, being on a collision course with the interests of the System.

That is why many system “sleepers” will give themselves away… they will pop like popcorn. Much good may it do them!

164. 4 January 2023 — “The #CoalițiaTrădării PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR is destroying the middle class, the engine of the national economy:…”

The #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR is destroying the middle stratum, the engine of the national economy: THE GOVERNMENT TRIPLES THE TAXES OF SMALL ENTREPRENEURS IN 2023!

Christmas has passed. And the New Year… I did not want to spoil your holidays with bad news, very bad news, but now, if I did not tell you, I would become an accomplice in the villainy: for the average Romanian taxes are tripling! You do not believe me? Follow the irrefutable demonstration below:

I have taken the case of a Romanian on an average income, generally a professional, who works hard in order to become as good as possible in his field.

Monthly sum invoiced 10,000 lei/month — 120,000 lei/gross income per year

Deductible expenses, for example: 45,000 lei/year

This year, our dear, serious and hard-working Romanian paid the following taxes on his limited company.

Compulsory and non-deductible health contribution = 3,060 lei/year

In 2023, our dear Romanian will contribute to the state budget, keeping the same taxable income of 75,000 lei/year, as follows:

Compulsory and non-deductible health contribution = 7,200 lei/year

Compulsory employee status with taxes of = 15,756 lei/year (this also includes a health contribution of 3,060 lei/year)

Total taxes 2023 on the same firm, with the same income = 30,156 lei

Our hard-working Romanian will contribute to the state budget a sum far greater than this year: three times greater!

They have done the same with authorised natural persons and professionals of every kind. Yes, even I and all my colleagues at the bar come within the scheme of increases… within the general project of impoverishing the middle stratum!

For our “generous” governors have raised the health contribution from 3,060 to 7,200 lei, without even giving us the right to deduct this contribution!

The health expenditure (the one on the limited company paid for dividends, amounting to 7,200 lei, and also the one for authorised natural persons, which is likewise 7,200) is a non-deductible expense, treated in the same way as income tax!

The only deductible health expenditure remains the one from salary, of 3,600 lei — that is all!

They would have done better to say that the tax had been raised from 10% to 20%.

But it seems that health needs money dedicated to it, which nobody may touch!

Now, for us, ordinary taxpayers and subjects of a state governed by the #CoalitionOfBetrayal, all that remains is to ask ourselves some simple and legitimate Questions:

What has the Romanian state done for us to justify raising the health contribution on dividends from 3,060 lei/year to 7,200 lei/year + a further 3,600 lei of health contribution paid by the same Romanian out of the salary he pays himself from his firm?

In total, our hard-working Romanian will pay a sum of 10,800 lei for health alone in 2023!

What extraordinary contributions has the Ministry of Health made, such as to raise our Romanian’s contribution from 3,060 lei a year to 10,800 lei a year on the same income?

And there is one more: why has NOBODY, but ABSOLUTELY NOBODY in the “free press” told us anything until now? Where are the fiscal specialists in the press (for I am neither a tax specialist nor a journalist, but a simple citizen!) who should have told us this back when the government was drawing up the budget and the taxes for 2023, who should have sounded the alarm in good time so that this robbery of the middle class should not take place?? Where??? For me it is this, this last question, that hurts most of all!

They have struck precisely at the middle stratum of Romanians: they have pauperised the foundation and, at the same time, the engine of Romania’s development. For to this 30% increase in taxes must of course be added the inflation which already exceeded 20% back in 2022. And the bank instalments… some of which have risen by as much as 50%!!!

In other words, in 2023 the “middle” Romanian will have a real net income 50% lower.

In 2023 we shall live twice as badly as in 2022… and 2022 was not exactly good…

Obviously, our draft law, the draft conceived by the #CoalitionForTheNation, the “#SolidarityAct — the Act on the taxation of great fortunes and businesses”, was not even considered, neither by the opposition nor, still less, by those in the #CoalitionOfBetrayal… quite simply the rich and the very rich must be protected; social assistance nowadays is granted exclusively to corporations and to rich men… that is what is #PoliticallyCorrect, that is what is #RightWing, so they say… is that not what we all wanted from childhood?

One thing alone is certain: the middle stratum will pay all the bills — the bill for the plandemic, the bill for the war, and the bill for the economic crisis we have just entered… all of them will be paid by us, by the middle stratum!

The same middle stratum which, in its overwhelming majority, does not go out into the street because it has no time, or because it is not “trendy”, “chic” or “cool”, or which merely considers that things are still going well for them… they will not go well much longer! That is certain!

“never mind, they have lowered the tax on stock-exchange transactions…”

165. 9 January 2023 — “«Paragraph (2) of article 19 is repealed.»”

“Paragraph (2) of Article 19 is repealed.”

Today at 06.00 my childhood friend, who had in the meantime also become my client, SMD, took off for the USA. He went there not on holiday nor on a business trip… but extradited. Extradited by Romania to the USA, at the request of the USA (although he had never been in the USA), on the basis of transparent accusations resting on a single statement… yes, the mere statement of a witness-informer arrested there some time ago placed on his shoulders seven counts of indictment whose combined penalties come to 150 years in prison!!! and led to the confiscation of all his money, although the extradition request mentions no damage whatever.

No, it is not a matter of drugs, nor obviously of any killing, but of the sale of certain electronic components which SMD manufactures in China: a simple act of trade in electronics was enough for him to be “provisionally arrested” for 4 months and extradited…

I shall not dwell now on the manner in which the Court of Appeal and the High Court analysed and “judicially examined” the “request” sent by the Great Glow-worm, a request which initially was no more than a page long and which was enough to put him in “provisional arrest” for more than 4 months. There is no point, for you know: purely formally, because the role of an “impartial court” had to be played, when in fact all that had to be confirmed was the custom whereby IN THE LAST 20 YEARS A REQUEST FOR THE EXTRADITION OF A ROMANIAN CITIZEN TO THE USA HAS NEVER BEEN REFUSED!

In fact — ATTENTION!!! — as things stand, ANY ROMANIAN CITIZEN MAY BE EXTRADITED TO THE USA AT ANY TIME, FOR ANYTHING, FOR NOTHING! This is not an exaggeration, it is a state of fact!

I shall say nothing to you about the degrading Extradition Treaty between Romania and the United States of America of 10 September 2009, signed for Romania by Tudor-Alexandru Chiuariu, then minister of justice, and for the United States of America by Ambassador Nicholas F. Taubman (yes, by the ambassador, not by Chiuariu’s counterpart, who had no time for formal nonsense out in the colonies!!!), in which Romania offers to deliver up to the USA at any time and for any reason. On the basis of “reciprocity”, of course… a reciprocity under which I have not found in the archives EVEN ONE AMERICAN CITIZEN EXTRADITED BY THE USA TO ROMANIA. NOT ONE!!! Incidentally… do you remember Teo Peter? — God rest him! Well, remember then that his killer did not do a single day in prison… neither here nor there! That is roughly what reciprocity amounts to.

I shall tell you only this further: that such an extradition, even if a fair trial before an impartial judge were to follow there — really?/God help us! — has direct effects on the rights and liberties of the Romanian citizen other than the right to liberty, which is obviously restricted. Beginning with the right to a defence, which you cannot exercise when you know no lawyers and have no resources to pay the fees charged in New York or Washington, and going as far as the right to see your family, who, even if they had the money to reach the USA, have no visas. That is why on Friday SMD saw from the police lock-up of the Transport Police — very probably for the last time — his old and ill father, as well as the old martial-arts teacher he had known since his school days. Need I add that, being extradited, he could not benefit from any house arrest or judicial supervision even if the court were willing to grant it, for the simple reason that… he has no domicile in the USA? What would be the point… it is all too obvious.

And all this has one single cause: para. 2 of Art. 19 of the Constitution revised in 2003, which says: “(2) By derogation from the provisions of paragraph (1), Romanian citizens may be extradited under the international conventions to which Romania is a party, under the conditions of the law and on the basis of reciprocity.”

This article was introduced expressly in 2003 in order to make possible the extradition of Romanian citizens, something not permitted by the Constitution of 1991, which provided, in a fundamentally correct manner, simply that

“A Romanian citizen may not be extradited or expelled from Romania.”

This is the normal attitude in a sovereign state, which must defend and try each of its citizens through its own courts, under its own laws.

This is the reason why in the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty paragraph 2 of the 2004 #ConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration will be repealed — the paragraph which permits the extradition of Romanian citizens — a repeal and a return to the constitutional normality that existed before the revision of 2003, which will constitute a guarantee of the defence of the rights and liberties of Romanian citizens by a state which fully assumes the prerogatives of #Independence and #Sovereignty.

166. 17 October 2022 — “«(2) No one may be subjected to torture or to any kind of punishment or inhuman treat…»”

“(2) No one may be subjected to torture or to any kind of inhuman, degrading or EXPERIMENTAL punishment or treatment. Medical treatments are possible only with complete and honestly informed consent.”

From 2022 onwards, immediately after the end of the plandemic, the young population of Romania, like that of the whole “civilised world”, was struck by a wave of deaths called “sudden”, by cerebral vascular accidents as well as thromboses and other grave vascular diseases. Not a day passes without our hearing of some surprising “departure” of persons still in their prime, without our reading news of the young and the very young, apparently in perfect health, who suddenly fall as though scythed down. Many others, like my friend George — who is still in hospital more than 15 months after the stroke he suffered 13 hours after the administration of the “treatment”, with minimal chances of recovery — have had their lives destroyed, the state assuming no responsibility whatever and leaving them without any material or medical assistance. (See here https://www.national.ro/coronavirus/insp-a-facut-publice-reactiile-adv…

All this you already know. As you know the (still) probable cause of this scourge: the experimental treatments — you know which ones! Please do not forget that for one of the most widely administered treatments to which the population of Romania and of the world was subjected in the last year of the pandemic, in order to confirm its “efficacy and safety”, the “Final clinical study report for study C4591001, randomised, placebo-controlled, observer-blind” must be submitted in… December 2023!! Although the “treatment” had already been forcibly administered to very many millions of citizens as early as 2021!!!

Such a thing must NEVER happen again! That is why we must do NOW everything in our power to prohibit the compulsory administration of experimental treatments, all the more so as there is already talk in the “media” of new pandemics of who knows what, of anything at all! Even an implicit obligation, such as the one resulting from a prohibition on entering public places or on practising certain professions, is too much! Too much to be forced to accept “experimental treatments”!

That is why EXPERIMENTAL TREATMENTS have been introduced alongside torture and inhuman or degrading treatment among those to which NO ONE MUST BE SUBJECTED, save where the person expresses consent following complete and honest information from the producer.

On the other hand, given the fundamental importance of this rule, in the light of the experience of recent years, it will have to be (or ought to have been) laid down at Constitutional level, precisely so that it cannot be amended according to circumstances by toxic majorities such as that of the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL-UDMR-USR!

For this reason, in the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty, in Article 22(2), the term “EXPERIMENTAL” has been introduced, supplementing the phrase “inhuman or degrading treatment”, already forbidden by the present Constitution as well.

If this fundamental matter had been regulated by the present Constitution, the nightmare and the disaster we have been living through in recent years would not have been possible. Many, very many lives and destinies would have been saved. By a single word which must be added to the Constitution!

That is why we need the #Constitution2023: the ill-fated history of recent years must not be repeated! NEVER!

That is why we must have the courage to discuss and to propose the amendments that are absolutely necessary from the perspective of the experience of recent years. NOW!

167. 11 January 2023 — On political quarantine

On the Demilitarisation Act: the full text of the bill — see the page The Demilitarisation Act.

“The judges of the Constitutional Court, the people’s advocates, national OR EUROPEAN magistrates, the ACTIVE MEMBERS of the army, of the INTELLIGENCE SERVICES, the police officers and other categories of public servants established by organic law may not belong to political parties. These professional categories may not belong to political parties and may not hold appointed or elected public office for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the exercise of those functions.”

That is to say, #LustrationOfTheSecuritate, #LustrationOfTheSystemMen, laid down at constitutional level!!!

This third proposal for revising the Constitution is, beyond question, the neuralgic point of our whole undertaking so far as the System is concerned, so far as concerns the caste of Securitate men who dominate Romania; for the present wording of paragraph 3 of article 40 of the Constitution is, without any doubt, the foundation of the discretionary power of the secret services in Romania, the root of the Securitate metastasis that has seized not merely the machinery of the state but the whole of Romanian society.

The explanation is simple. In the present wording of the constitutional text (“The judges of the Constitutional Court, the people’s advocates, the magistrates, the active members of the army, the police officers and other categories of public servants established by organic law may not belong to political parties.”), “by chance” the “active members of the secret services” — that is, the Securitate men — are not listed among those who may not belong to political parties. If you are a soldier, a police officer, a magistrate, a people’s advocate or a judge of the Constitutional Court, you may not belong to a political party. If, on the other hand, under the present Constitution, you are a Securitate man, if you draw your pay from the intelligence services, you may! And this despite the fact that the “intelligence services” are mentioned in the Constitution, at article 65(2)(h), so that the prohibition could have been laid down in their case too. In truth I am wholly convinced that the “fathers of the Constitution” (two of whom, Professor Antonie Iorgovan and Professor Ioan Muraru, I had the honour of having as my teachers) thought of including them as well among those forbidden party membership, and wished to do so; and I am just as convinced that immense pressure was brought to bear upon them so that this should not happen. Sadly they are no longer among us to tell us why it was precisely the Securitate men whom they left out of the list of those who may not belong to political parties.

What is certain is that the present wording of article 40(3) of the Constitution has allowed an oligopoly of power to be set up in Romania — that of the intelligence services, known in short as “the System” — and a true caste of Securitate men to be constituted. No, this is no exaggeration: we may speak of a “caste” of Securitate men, for it is relatively closed and perpetuates itself by heredity, having become in the meantime all but identical with the stratum of the rich and the very rich of Romania.

It is late to repair what has been done: the caste of the Securitate has already seized Romania — big capital (in so far as it is Romanian), the political leadership (observe merely how many have kissed the ring of the System by passing through the “academies” of the Securitate), the press, “civil” society: everything is controlled by the System, by those of the Securitate Caste. Everything, absolutely everything, from the stripping of Romania’s assets, the destruction of its industry, the implementation of neocolonialism and of political correctness in the country, the abuses in the justice system, the setting up of censorship and of the thought police, to the terror and the plunder of the plandemic and our entanglement in the conflict in the east — ALL of them, every one, are the result of decisions taken by those of the Securitate Caste. That is beyond dispute.

That is why it is very hard, well-nigh impossible, to repair anything of what has already been done. Yet I still wish to believe that it is not too late to halt the perpetuation of an aberrant state of affairs, to treat the cause of all the ills, the root of the evil which, if it is not extirpated, will do nothing but deepen this state of affairs, will spread the metastasis and the stagnation of Romanian society until its extinction — of that I am convinced.

And the only remedy is #LustrationOfTheSecuritate from political life: their removal, or the disclosure of their names. And that cannot be done otherwise than at constitutional level, for the introduction of such a provision into a sub-constitutional law would be struck down at once and rejected as unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court and by the System’s men who have been sent into that institution as well. I say it again: this measure, vital for Romania, can be taken only by revising the Constitution. Without any exaggeration: #LustrationOfTheSecuritate is the only and the last chance of survival for this nation.

Returning to the revised text proposed, I stress that, for the sake of “equal treatment”, the same prohibition on belonging to political parties must also “benefit” European magistrates — whether they be judges or prosecutors.

In order to give effect to the constitutional norm as proposed for revision, I have proposed introducing a new sentence within the same article (all the amendments have been drafted in such a way that the revision does not entail renumbering the articles of the Constitution): “These professional categories may not belong to political parties and may not hold appointed or elected public office for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the exercise of those functions.”

This provision is inspired by the way the institutions of the United States work — our guiding beacon in matters of democracy, is it not? — where no member of the army or of the intelligence services may enter politics or be appointed to public office for 5 years from the cessation of his function. So it was with George Bush senior, with Colin Powell, with all those we know of and all those we do not. Now… if this is good and right in the United States, why should it not be so in Romania?! Consider, for example: had we had this constitutional rule, we should not have had… Ciucă, who from head of the army (Chief of the General Staff) became, immediately upon leaving that post, president of the National Liberal Party and thereafter Prime Minister of Romania, turning this country into a quasi-militarised state.

Not least, such a provision would prevent the Ciucă situation from repeating itself in the case of other “lads from the system”, members of the Securitate caste, who might “resign” from an intelligence service in order to enter a party at once, or to be appointed to high official office. Moreover, I must say it plainly and in so many words: the wording we propose for the revision would close for good every road towards political life or towards the Cotroceni Palace for the “Goddess of Justice”, a.k.a. L.C.K.

Of course, this prohibition too cannot be laid down OTHERWISE than at constitutional level, any other form of regulating the five-year ban being, as things now stand, unconstitutional.

I am aware that this article undermines — not to say dynamites! — any chance that our proposal for #RevisingTheConstitution should ever become reality. I know only that “What is impossible with men is possible with God” (Luke 18:27). If ever we are to be rid of the Securitate metastasis, we shall be rid of it… only with divine help. That I know.

For all that, whatever may come to pass, the discussion itself about the source of the evil will make us conscious of it and will give us weapons with which to fight it. Not least, the debate on the revision, the subject #Constitution2023, will unmask a great many Securitate “sleepers” deeply embedded in the Romanian press and in Romanian civil society: they will be the ones who shout loudest against any discussion of revision and who will, of course, accuse me of being “a man of the services” myself.

Beyond any risk (when you open subjects of this kind you may expect anything at any moment. Ask yourselves only why, until the Sovereignty Act and the present revision bill, nothing was said about the need for the lustration of the Securitate and for the demilitarisation of the services. Why, indeed?), beyond the spectre of the whole undertaking being useless, I sincerely believe that the mere debating of the themes of the revision bill will bring a great gain to Romanian society.

That is why we must have the courage to discuss and to propose the amendments that are absolutely necessary in the light of the experience of recent years. NOW.

For #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty is a necessity.

168. 13 January 2023 — “The Chambers of Parliament, in joint sitting, «l) Appoint the Prosecutor General of the Prosecutor’s Offi…»”

The Chambers of Parliament, sitting jointly, “l) Appoint the Prosecutor General of the Prosecutor’s Office attached to the High Court of Cassation and Justice and the Chief Prosecutors of the National Anticorruption Directorate and of the Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism.”

The appointment by Parliament of the Prosecutor General and of the chief prosecutors of the National Anticorruption Directorate and of the Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism would be a first effective measure for putting an end to the abuses of the Public Ministry, and at the same time for enhancing the standing and the role of Parliament within the institutional architecture of the Romanian state, and for strengthening constitutional democracy and the balance of powers in the state.

Thus, by placing the power to appoint the Prosecutor General and the chief prosecutors of the two directorates within the competence of Parliament, #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty would have the effect of sharing out the appointment of the leadership of the Public Ministry among ALL THE POWERS OF THE STATE — namely the EXECUTIVE (through the minister of justice, who makes the proposal), the JUDICIAL POWER (through the Superior Council of Magistracy, whose opinion is required) and the LEGISLATIVE POWER (through the appointment itself, by the vote cast in the joint sitting of the two Chambers of Parliament) — a state of affairs apt to give effect to the principle of “checks and balances” laid down by the Constitution in article 1(4).

At the same time, removing the President of Romania (a part of the executive power, according to the way the Constitution has been construed and applied in recent years) from the procedure for appointing the Prosecutor General would be an effective means of diminishing the power and the pressure of the executive upon the judicial power and, at one and the same time, of curtailing the powers and the principal attributions of the President, which would be transferred to the legislative power, to Parliament, “the supreme representative body of the Romanian people and the sole legislative authority of the country” (article 61 of the Constitution), the body through which the people exercises its sovereignty (article 2 of the Constitution).

This is only one of the changes brought by #Constitution2023 which will bring about a profound institutional reform of the Romanian state, enlarging democracy and guaranteeing the sovereignty of the Romanian people — the fundamental elements of what I have called #TheThirdRepublic.

Post scriptum: probably only with such a Prosecutor General would the complaint lodged by the Coalition for the Nation concerning the genocide to which our “leaders” have subjected the Romanian people be investigated seriously and impartially.

It is fortunate that the offence of genocide is not subject to any limitation period.

169. 14 January 2023 — On the President of the System

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the bill — see the page The Constitution of Sovereignty.

On the President of the System, alias “the Head of State”… and the need for change.

“A fish rots from the head,” says a wise Romanian proverb. #TheTimeHasCome to stop “cleaning it from the tail” and to face the problem head-on, acknowledging what the constant source of these unending troubles is and where it springs from. The answer is simple: from Cotroceni.

Invariably the President of Romania, become abusively “the Head of State”, whatever his name may have been, has been the source of the evil, the patron of the plunder, the father of the abuse and of the turning of Romania into a colony. Three names — Ion Iliescu, Traian Băsescu and Klaus Werner Iohannis, each with terms of office that will have amounted to ten years — have marked the history of these years beyond repair, Romania having been remade in their image and likeness. There is no need for me to go into detail. You feel it in your own skin every day: by 2024 we shall have lived through 30 black years under three Presidents installed by the System, to which must be added four years under a President defeated by the System — Emil Constantinescu.

Because they were able to. Because #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration allowed them to — the greatest common denominator of the three terms, Iliescu’s, Băsescu’s and Iohannis’s. Because Romania’s semi-presidential regime is manifestly a failure for the people and a success for the System: that is #TheSecondRepublic, founded by Iliescu.

Because “the Presidency” is the quintessence and the symbol of the System’s power in Romania; it is the institution through which Romania was brought to its knees and turned into a colony controlled by and through the caste of the local Securitate men.

Only a blind man or a fool could fail to see it. If each of the three “forced and abused” the Constitution and went beyond his constitutional powers… it is for the simple reason that the present Constitution allowed them to. Because, being made by men, it is imperfect… or else it was perfect precisely in order to bring us here, where we are: slaves of the system in a country turned into a second-rate colony on the margin of an empire.

That is WHY there is an imperative need to change the law that permitted and made possible the disaster — the present Constitution; that is why #RevisingTheConstitution is urgently needed.

Shortening the term of office and curtailing the constitutional prerogatives of the President of Romania are the only way out of the institutional impasse in which we have found ourselves for 33 years — and this can be done only through the changes brought by #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty:

The first measure to be taken is to shorten the President’s term from 5 years to 4, as it was originally laid down in the Constitution of 1991:

“(1) The term of office of the President of Romania is 4 years and is exercised from the date of the taking of the oath.” (Article 83(1) as it is to be amended.)

It is a historical fact (and the only constitutional “justification”) that the President’s term was extended from 4 years to 5 for the benefit of Mr Adrian Năstase. Just as it is an undeniable fact that the beneficiaries of that change were Mr Băsescu and Mr Iohannis. The result? Lengthening the President’s term beyond that of Parliament turned him into “the Head of State” and gave stability and discretionary power to the System of which he became the chief exponent.

This state of affairs can be changed simply: shorten the President’s term, returning to a term of 4 years.

And it must be done now, in 2023, in order to fix at 4 years the term of the President whom “the Romanians will elect” in 2024 — whoever he may be. The next opportunity to shorten the President’s term will be in… 2044, twenty years hence, when the parliamentary elections will once again fall together with the presidential ones. Until then it will not be possible, for no one will agree to shorten his own term: neither the President nor the members of Parliament. It is that simple.

The second measure by which the President can and must be “disconnected” from the System is to limit his power to appoint generals within it.

“b) confers the ranks of marshal, general and admiral only with the binding opinion of the specialised committees of Parliament.” (Article 94(b) as it is to be amended.)

Under the wording proposed in our bill for revising the Constitution, the ranks of marshal, general and admiral will be conferred by the President ONLY with the binding opinion of the specialised committees of Parliament, as is done in the “Great Firefly”, in the United States (well, if they are held up to us as a perpetual example, let us take from them the good things too, shall we not?).

In this way the System, through the President’s hand, will no longer be able to advance every one of its lackeys to the rank of general with umpteen stars. Do you want examples? There are many, very many, for we have more generals than corporals in Romania… perhaps one example would be Florian Coldea, the former Deputy Director of the Romanian Intelligence Service, who rose from major to general within a few years… or, why not, another good example is the General–Prime Minister Nicolae Ciucă, who bears four stars on his shoulder — FOUR!

“(3) Three judges are appointed by the Economic and Social Council on the proposal of civil society, of the trade unions and of the employers’ associations, three by the Chamber of Deputies and three by the Senate.” (Article 142(3) as it is to be amended.)

An equally important prerogative of the President that must be curtailed at once is that of appointing judges to the Constitutional Court — the means by which “the Head of State” secures and strengthens his power (and prolongs it even after he has left office) through the men appointed to the Constitutional Court for terms of… 9 years! There is, moreover, NO JUSTIFICATION whatever for ONE SINGLE MAN, whoever he may be, appointing THREE JUDGES of the Constitutional Court. This prerogative must pass from the Man of the System to civil society, which must propose directly to the Economic and Social Council which citizens are to determine, alongside those appointed by Parliament, the manner in which the laws are applied and construed in accordance with the Constitution.

Cutting away the prerogative of appointing judges of the Constitutional Court, together with the removal of the right to appoint the Prosecutor General and the Chief Prosecutors of the Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism and of the National Anticorruption Directorate, of which I spoke yesterday — see here: https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10220056984448663&id=1645845977 — is the guarantee that justice will be depoliticised by being taken out from under the control of “the Head of State”, the Man of the System. But of the measures for defending and enlarging the independence of the judiciary we shall speak on other occasions too.

What is certain is that shortening the President’s term (from 5 years to 4) and his power (taking from “the Head of State” the powers to appoint at his discretion generals and judges of the Constitutional Court, and likewise the Prosecutor General and the Chief Prosecutors of the two directorates), coupled with an enlargement of the powers of Parliament and of civil society, constitute the basic elements of the institutional architecture of what I have called #TheThirdRepublic.

Thus the Republic in which we live (whether we like it or not, whether we are monarchists or not) will be transformed from a “semi-presidential” Republic into a “semi-parliamentary” one, in which the fundamental role in the state will be taken up by Parliament (which will become the sole and true “Head of State”) and in which the people will continue to elect its President directly — a President to whom will remain the essential role (and the original one, according to the true intention of the “fathers of the Constitution” of 1991) of MEDIATOR BETWEEN THE POWERS OF THE STATE, BETWEEN THE STATE AND SOCIETY, AND GUARDIAN OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER.

The foregoing are some of the essential changes brought by #Constitution2023 which will bring about a profound institutional reform of the Romanian state, enlarging democracy and guaranteeing the sovereignty of the Romanian people — the fundamental elements of what I have called #TheThirdRepublic.

170. 16 January 2023 — On the referendum and the elections

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the bill — see the page The Constitution of Sovereignty.

“(2) No referendum of any kind may be held at the same time as elections, of whatever nature these may be.”

Under the present Constitution the referendum is one of the ways in which sovereignty is exercised (article 2 of the Constitution) and may be held in three situations expressly and exhaustively laid down by the Constitution:

1. The referendum for the removal of the President following his suspension by Parliament (article 95 of the Constitution);

2. The referendum forming part of the procedure for revising the Constitution (article 151 of the Constitution); and

3. The consultative referendum whereby the President, “after consulting Parliament, may ask the people to express, by referendum, their will on matters of national interest” (article 90 of the Constitution).

(So no, a referendum for the removal of the President cannot be held on the strength of a collection of signatures, however many there may be.)

None of the provisions of the Constitution has been so plainly mocked and turned into a political weapon as this last article (one instance being the latest “deformation” of constitutional reality with the signatures for the removal of Mr Iohannis).

Two Presidents of the System have abused it: Traian Băsescu Petrov and Klaus Werner Iohannis, both of them beneficiaries of those two five-year terms…

The first “consultative referendum” was held in 2009 by Petrov on the subject of “a unicameral Parliament with no more than 300 members”, and

the second, held in 2019 by Mr Iohannis, put the question: “Do you agree with prohibiting the Government from adopting emergency ordinances in the field of offences, penalties and judicial organisation, and with extending the right to challenge ordinances directly before the Constitutional Court?”

1. Both referendums took place at the same time as elections: the first, on the unicameral Parliament and the reduction in the number of members, was held together with the presidential elections, which brought Petrov a further five-year term; and the second, the referendum on “justice”, secured for Mr Iohannis’s National Liberal Party, and for the European People’s Party, the majority of the Romanian seats in the European Parliament.

2. Neither was ever put into practice; neither has come to anything after 14 years and 5 years respectively, the legislation on which the people had been “consulted” never having been adopted.

3. Both were costly deceptions at the expense of Romania’s budget, whose sole purpose was to obtain an electoral advantage for those in power at the time, out of those referendums and out of the people’s trustfulness.

For which reason, in #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, we have introduced after paragraph 1 of article 90 of the Constitution (the paragraph governing the consultative referendum) a new paragraph forbidding a referendum to be superimposed upon elections of any kind.

Only thus will the System and those in power no longer be able to take advantage of, and divert to their own ends, a generous constitutional rule which becomes, in the hands of traitors, an instrument of deception… of a continuing kind.

“8. In article 90, after paragraph 1, a paragraph 2 is added, reading as follows:

“(2) No referendum of any kind may be held at the same time as elections, of whatever nature these may be.”

This proposed amendment too, alongside those set out in the past few days, is among the essential changes brought by #Constitution2023 which will bring about a profound institutional reform of the Romanian state, enlarging democracy and guaranteeing the sovereignty of the Romanian people — the fundamental elements of what I have called #TheThirdRepublic.

171. 17 January 2023 — “The largest project for the #RevizuireaConstituției initiated by civil society! The largest…”

The largest bill for #RevisingTheConstitution ever brought forward by civil society. The largest public debate on the constitution in Romania’s history. The most ambitious project for reforming the state in the past 33 years.

This is how the Constitution of the Third Republic is written:

Following yesterday’s post concerning the amendment of article 90 of the present Constitution, Professor Adrian Severin wrote to me:

“I think it would be well to add two further sentences:

No consultative referendum may be initiated on matters for which the Constitution excludes citizens’ initiative, or which involve procedures concluded by mandatory referendums.”

We thank Professor Adrian Severin, one of the country’s foremost professors of law over many decades past, and we inform you that this proposal has been incorporated into #Constitution2023 and will form the third paragraph of article 90, the second added by this initiative.

172. 18 January 2023 — “You have forgotten that between 15 May 2020 and 9 March 2022, until less than a year ago…”

Have you forgotten that between 15 May 2020 and 9 March 2022 — less than a year ago (!!!) — you were under a “state of alert”, in truth under a state of dictatorship, a state of slavery: shut up in your houses, made conditional, controlled, muzzled and terrorised? Have you forgotten that you had no right to leave your houses or to walk the streets at night, or to enter a shop unvaccinated? Have you forgotten that your rights were pared away month by month through Government Decisions which prolonged your state of slavery… and all of it on the pretext of protection against a virus? You have forgotten.

Just as you have forgotten that the 5G Strategy for Romania was likewise adopted by… Government Decision.

Who could remember all the villainies committed over the past 33 years by way of Government Decisions? They are “beyond counting”, like the money and the enemies in a manele song.

You have forgotten… which is normal and healthy for the mind, forgetfulness being a good analgesic for the soul and an effective sedative for suffering and mental disturbance.

But this forgetting of ours, man’s forgetting, is medicine for the mind of the individual and, at one and the same time, the curse of nations and the weapon of tyrants and scoundrels.

That is why WE MUST NOT FORGET that it was through Government Decisions that we were terrorised, humiliated, separated and set against one another; that it was through Government Decisions that our liberty was taken from us and our rights confiscated.

Because if we forget… we shall be reminded. By experiencing again, by living through again, other abuses and yet others, graver and graver.

Let us not forget: through Government Decisions, additions were made to the law — indeed, law itself was made.

And all this happened because… they, those who governed us, were scoundrels, yes. But also because they were able to, because they were allowed to. Because this Constitution, #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration, left them room for villainy, allowed them to legislate by way of administrative acts of a normative character.

That is why, in #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, the field in which the Government may issue Government Decisions, and the object of those decisions, have been strictly limited.

In order to avoid the situation already experienced during the plandemic, in which regulations were added one after another to the infamous and unconstitutional Law 55/2020, curtailing our rights, a new constitutional limit MUST be placed upon the Government’s power (at present discretionary) to issue Government Decisions:

“By government decisions the content of the primary rule which orders the issuing of the decision may neither be amended nor added to.”

Regulating at constitutional level the Government’s right to issue Government Decisions, together with the strict limitation of legislative delegation (the Government’s right to issue ordinances and emergency ordinances), of which we shall speak in the coming days, amounts to establishing effective guarantees for the democratisation and the transparency of the act of governing and, at the same time, a strengthening of Parliament’s role as “the supreme representative body of the Romanian people and the sole legislative authority of the country” (article 61 of the Constitution).

Here is the wording of article 108(2) in #Constitution2023:

“(2) Decisions are issued for the organisation of the execution of the laws. By government decisions the content of the primary rule which orders the issuing of the decision may neither be amended nor added to.”

I know that discussions about laws and the Constitution may seem to many of you dull and pointless; yet these discussions are about us and about our lives, about rights, liberties and normality as we now understand it and as we wish to live in it… so they do have a point, for they make us understand what is happening to us and why, and what it is we are living through.

That is why, beyond the wooden language imposed by legislative technique, I shall go on discussing and making known the essential themes of Romanian society, at any risk of colliding with the interests of the System or with the vanities of certain confrères or comrades on the barricade.

That is why we ask you to take part as well, and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

173. 19 January 2023 — “Yesterday’s scandal over the draft Ordinance regulating the identity Card…”

Yesterday’s uproar over the draft ordinance regulating the electronic identity card illustrates perfectly everything I told you yesterday about the need to regulate and to limit, at constitutional level, the Government’s right to issue Government Decisions, together with the strict limitation of legislative delegation (the Government’s right to issue ordinances and emergency ordinances).

It is as though the Lord had ordained that yesterday — at the debate held at the Ministry of the Interior — we should have the typical example of legislation that creates the normative space for abuse, and likewise of a gross intrusion by the executive into the process of law-making.

We saw how the executive was not merely delegated, without justification, to legislate on a matter essential to the working of the Romanian state, but how it also created loopholes for itself, leaving room to intrude in future into the law-making process by way of Government Decisions through which additions will be made to the law at the executive’s pleasure, whenever and however the “governor” of the day in the colony of Romania may wish.

The ordinance discussed and disputed yesterday clearly bears upon, and produces effects in, the electoral field as well, for which reason it cannot be regulated by government ordinance, the implicit object of the regulation falling within the sphere of organic laws.

That is why the limitation of the Government’s right to issue ordinances “in fields which are not the object of organic laws” (as is already laid down in article 115 of the Constitution) must be reinforced by repeating it, through a deliberate legislative “tautology”, in an amendment to article 108(3) of the Constitution, namely:

“(3) Ordinances are issued pursuant to a special enabling law, within the limits and on the conditions laid down therein, and may regulate exclusively in the field reserved to ordinary laws.”

But more important than this, it is essential that in the future Constitution the possibility of legislative delegation to the government, and the government’s power to issue ordinances, should be strictly limited.

So that what happened yesterday may no longer be possible, and so that Parliament may assume in full the responsibility of legislating.

So that ordinances and emergency ordinances may not be withdrawn indefinitely from Parliament’s scrutiny, thereby making of the executive the principal law-giver in Romania.

That is why article 115(3) of the present Constitution must be amended, so as to read as follows in #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty:

“(3) Ordinances shall be submitted for Parliament’s approval, in accordance with the legislative procedure, before the expiry of the enabling period. Failure to observe that period entails the cessation of the ordinance’s effects. (…)”

Thus, unlike the present wording of paragraph 3 (“(3) If the enabling law so requires, ordinances shall be submitted for Parliament’s approval, in accordance with the legislative procedure, before the expiry of the enabling period. Failure to observe that period entails the cessation of the ordinance’s effects.”), under our proposal all ordinances must be submitted for Parliament’s approval BEFORE the expiry of the enabling period, and failure to observe it will entail the cessation of the ordinance’s effects.

In other words, even when it delegates law-making to the executive in matters of limited importance, Parliament retains control over that law-making process, the absence of confirmation, the absence of Parliament’s approval, having the effect that the ordinance ceases to have effect by operation of law.

Only a blind man or an ill-wisher could fail to see that day after day we have confirmation of the limits and the weaknesses of this Constitution — #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration — the one that made and still makes possible the abuse of the executive and the legislating of dictatorship and of institutionalised terror; the one that reduced Parliament’s role to a purely decorative one; the one that left the application or the confiscation of citizens’ rights and of national sovereignty to the will of a few men.

Tomorrow we shall go on to set out briefly the amendments we propose to article 115 of the present Constitution, and we shall discuss the need to limit the power of the executive, of the Government, to issue emergency ordinances.

Until then, we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate, and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

174. 20 January 2023 — On decarbonisation and the tax on the sun

“The Emergency Ordinance on the DECARBONISATION of the energy system”, which provides for the closing down and mothballing of the lignite- and coal-fired generating units. Or the Emergency Ordinance introducing the TAX ON THE SUN.

These emergency ordinances, and many others — far too many for us to call them all to mind now — have a few things in common besides villainy:

1. The absence of any real justification for the legislative delegation (the delegation of the right to legislate, to make laws) by Parliament to the executive;

2. The absence of any urgency about them, almost all of them being capable of adoption — and requiring adoption — only after serious debate, given their far-reaching effects upon society;

3. The impossibility of any prior review of their constitutionality;

4. Their instantaneous entry into force upon publication in the Official Gazette (unlike laws, which come into force three days after publication in the Gazette);

5. Once the emergency ordinances have been adopted, the impossibility for members of Parliament to refer them to the Constitutional Court;

6. The subsequent, formal and utterly belated review of their lawfulness by Parliament — there being at this moment emergency ordinances which have not reached the floor of Parliament even after a great many years;

7. The production of every effect sought by the executive before it is legally and formally possible for the ordinances to be set aside or rejected by Parliament.

This is why the Government resorts hundreds of times a year (186 times in 2022!!!) to the instrument of the emergency ordinance: law-making directly by the executive; law-making without prior review of constitutionality; the undermining of the legislative power, and therefore of the sovereignty of the Romanian people.

In two words: ABUSE and DICTATORSHIP are the reasons for the avalanche of thousands of emergency ordinances we have had over the past 33 years.

The source of the evil: THE PRESENT CONSTITUTION — #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration, the one that made possible the executive’s abuse of law and the undermining of the legislative power in Romania. That is, the ABUSE and the DICTATORSHIP of which I spoke above.

That is why #RevisingTheConstitution is needed.

That is why #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty comes to correct these drafting errors in the present Constitution — we do not know whether they were intended or not — the errors that have brought us to the state in which we find ourselves today.

In #Constitution2023 the present provision, contained in the final sentence of article 115(5) of the Constitution — “If, within no more than 30 days from the date of its submission, the Chamber before which it is brought does not decide upon the ordinance, the ordinance is deemed adopted and is sent to the other Chamber, which also decides under the emergency procedure.” —

is to be replaced and supplemented by the following wording:

“The Chamber before which it is brought shall decide upon the ordinance as a matter of urgency, the ordinance being sent to the other Chamber, which also decides under the emergency procedure. (…) Failure to observe the period entails the cessation of the emergency ordinance’s effects. If, within no more than 90 days from its adoption by the first Chamber before which it is brought, the deciding Chamber does not pronounce upon the emergency ordinance, the ordinance is deemed rejected.”

In this way, where there truly exists an exceptional situation in which the executive must legislate AS A MATTER OF URGENCY, then after the emergency ordinance has been issued BOTH Chambers must likewise decide upon it AS A MATTER OF URGENCY — WITHIN 90 DAYS AT MOST OF ITS ISSUE — the members of Parliament either adopting or rejecting the emergency ordinance issued by the Government.

The consequence of Parliament’s passivity will be the IMPLICIT AND AUTOMATIC REJECTION of the emergency ordinance after those 90 days, that passivity and implicit rejection being regarded as a sanction applied by Parliament to the executive.

Likewise, another important change brought by #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty with regard to the regime of emergency ordinances is an amendment to article 146(d) of the Constitution, whereby these normative acts are included among those which may be challenged before the Constitutional Court by members of Parliament, the number of members required to make such a referral falling from 50 deputies or 25 senators to 20 deputies or 10 senators respectively. We shall speak of this at greater length when we examine the amendments proposed to article 146 of the Constitution. Until then, here is our proposed amendment to article 146(1)(d):

“d) rules upon objections of unconstitutionality concerning laws and ordinances, raised before the courts of law or of commercial arbitration; an objection of unconstitutionality may also be raised directly by the People’s Advocate or by at least 20 deputies or at least 10 senators;”,

the text of the present Constitution providing merely that:

“d) rules upon objections of unconstitutionality concerning laws and ordinances, raised before the courts of law or of commercial arbitration; an objection of unconstitutionality may also be raised directly by the People’s Advocate;”

I know that these discussions, however much I try to simplify and condense them, make neither pleasant nor easy reading.

But their whole purpose is to make us conscious of the roots of the troubles that have brought us to the state we are in, and also to make us know and understand the present Constitution as it is — imperfect, and violated by those in power. I hope that, after the debates to come, we shall all understand why the constant villainy of those who govern us obliges us to amend the Constitution in order to limit their state of power and their inclination to abuse.

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 25 January 2023 we meet at 6 p.m. at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

Post scriptum: “chance” would have it that on precisely that date — 10 December 2022, on that very day, immediately before the unexpected “visit” paid in my absence by the mysterious visitors — I had the first discussion ever on the subject of #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty.

176. 23 January 2023 — On the false defence of the Constitution

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the bill — see the page The Constitution of Sovereignty.

On the Securitate men who cry “Securitate!!!”

I return to it and say it again: invariably, every time we speak with arguments about the need to revise the Constitution, there appears a pack of barkers who put on that same old record — “if we touch the Constitution the Hungarians will take Transylvania from us”, or that “we shall lose our sovereignty, and/or our rights”… or all of these together if we change anything in the Constitution!!!

The “spontaneous” appearance of the barkers and of the other alarmist trumpeters is no accident — obviously! For this is an old Securitate manoeuvre: it is sociologically demonstrated that the obsessive repetition of a lie takes on the appearance of a truth. An example: so it was too with the manipulation about “Dragnea gets off” at the referendum on the family, for it was said at the time that if people voted YES at the referendum on the question of introducing into the Constitution the provision concerning the “natural family”/“traditional family”, then “Dragnea would get off”. Dragnea did not get off — but neither is the traditional family regulated and defended in the Constitution… and the lie remained a lie: not just any kind of lie, but a destructive one.

And so it is now… we are attacked with lies both gross and stupid, but lies that hold, that take with “the people”. For the System knows well what to do and how to go about it… it is paid handsomely enough, out of our own money.

In reality, everything trumpeted above by the barkers, and other such things besides, can be revised by NO ONE and NEVER — including the matters touching upon unity, independence, national sovereignty, territorial integrity or the rights of citizens.

This is stated expressly in article 152 of the Constitution (a Constitution one ought to read at least once before saying anything whatever about it, and all the more so about the “dangers of revision”):

“The provisions of this Constitution with regard to the national, independent, unitary and indivisible character of the Romanian State, the republican form of government, territorial integrity, independence of the judiciary, political pluralism and official language shall not be subject to revision.

Likewise, no revision shall be made if it results in the suppression of the citizens’ fundamental rights and freedoms, or of the safeguards thereof.”

It is for this reason — so that those subjects mentioned in article 152 of the Constitution should NEVER be altered — that I have always said we need a revision and NOT a new Constitution, in which EVERYTHING could be reopened. And WE DO NOT WANT THAT.

So it is enough to read the Constitution once to realise that these are fuses lit by the Securitate men to stop us, simple citizens, from doing WHAT WE MUST DO.

So I do not know whether those who peddle the notions about the “dangers of revising the Constitution” are Securitate men… possibly, indeed probably. But I know for certain that, if they are not Securitate men, they are useful idiots peddling “their” slogans, and that they are doing the System’s work.

That is why, in order to counter the manoeuvres of the Securitate men and of the useful idiots, we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 25 January 2023, from 6 p.m., we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest).

For no, we do not know whether we shall get as far as collecting signatures; we do not know whether we shall be able to collect at least 500,000 signatures or, once they are collected, whether we shall lodge the revision bill in Parliament. All this we shall decide together.

What I do know for certain is that we must identify and discuss the causes that have brought us to the state we are in, that we must have the courage to discuss them and the strength to find remedies… we, simple citizens, together: our own remedies for our own troubles.

That is why we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

POST SCRIPTUM: not a few have reproached me with having said myself, I know not how many months ago, that it is NOT for #TheCoalitionOfBetrayal to carry out the revision. I say so still. For I am convinced that they, the traitors in power, would amend even articles 74 and 150 of the Constitution — the articles that give the Romanian citizen the possibility of bringing legislative initiatives and, respectively, initiatives for revising the Constitution. Those we shall not touch — God forbid! — for it was on their basis that we wrote both #TheSovereigntyAct and #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty.

But WE, THE PEOPLE, must revise the Constitution.

If we wish to leave anything behind us for those who come after.

177. 24 January 2023 — “Many happy returns and every happiness!”

Many and happy returns, in full felicity!

Tomorrow, 25 January 2023, from 6 p.m., there will be held at the Coffee House for the Nation in Bucharest, 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4,

the first public debate on the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution entitled #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, or #TheConstitutionForTheNation.

Anyone, any Romanian citizen, is welcome and is invited to make proposals, to voice criticism, or simply to attend the first public debate on a bill for revising the Constitution — a bill that comes wholly from the ranks of civil society and that was written outside Parliament and without the influence of the “institutions” and the “services” that have been governing our lives occultly for 33 years.

We should be particularly honoured if there were among us professors of law, specialists in constitutional law, or “mere” practitioners of the law, to take part and enrich this debate.

A warm invitation is likewise addressed to journalists interested in an unprecedented project — assuredly the most far-reaching, the most spontaneous and the most “immanent” project for revising a Constitution in the history of Romania, if not indeed of Europe.

Not least, we hope that our call will be heard by those politicians who, whatever their convictions or the “colour” of their party shirt and flag, still feel something for this country and this people, who still care about the future of this country.

This message is an invitation sincerely made and a plea addressed to all those who believe that the Romanians and Romania deserve another chance.

The discussions will have as their subject, plainly, a general theme — the need for, or the timeliness of, such a revision bill — as well as one or more of the particular themes of revision considered thus far in #Constitution2023, namely:

Amendments whose purpose is to strengthen and to guarantee the rights of the citizen;

Amendments whose purpose is to limit the power of the intelligence services and their influence upon society;

Amendments whose purpose is to enlarge the power of Parliament;

Amendments whose purpose is to diminish the power of the President;

Amendments whose purpose is to strengthen and to guarantee the independence of the judiciary;

Amendments whose purpose is to defend and to increase the national wealth;

Amendments whose purpose is to strengthen democracy, to guarantee national sovereignty and to defend the supremacy of the Constitution and the sovereign interest of the people in the conduct of international relations.

We must have the courage to discuss freely even a matter as delicate as the Constitution;

we are bound to acknowledge that the country has come to this pass not only because of incompetent, treacherous or corrupt politicians, but also because of the fundamental Law that permitted the villainy, that made the betrayal possible; and

we may dare to say that there are things in the Constitution which can and must be put right or bettered.

#AfterThirtyThreeYears since the Second Republic was set up by Ion Iliescu through the adoption of the Constitution of 1991, and since its revision of 2003/2004 and the adoption of what I have called #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration,

#TheTimeHasCome for us to design together #TheThirdRepublic, which will have to be founded upon a revised Constitution, upon #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty.

We apologise in advance for any clumsiness of organisation or for what may prove too cramped a space for this gathering.

We look forward to seeing you and we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate; we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

178. 26 January 2023 — On four anti-securitate measures

On the Demilitarisation Act: the full text of the bill — see the page The Demilitarisation Act.

How to treat the Securitate metastasis effectively with only four measures

Yesterday, 25 January 2023, the first debate on the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution, called #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty or #TheConstitutionForTheNation, was held in Bucharest.

Immediately after a general presentation of the bill, and after some discussion on the need for it and its timeliness, the debate turned of its own accord to the way in which Romania may be saved from the Securitate metastasis that rules the country with a high hand and controls society in every one of its sectors — Romania’s major problem for 33 years past.

The conclusion is simple: only a constitutional reform can take the country out from under the empire of the Securitate System, out from under the domination of the Caste of the Securitate men.

By putting into effect, at constitutional level and SIMULTANEOUSLY, FOUR SIMPLE MEASURES:

1. The demilitarisation of the intelligence services, which can be effected by amending article 118(4) of the Constitution and introducing one simple (but effective) sentence: “The intelligence services and those assimilated to them shall be organised exclusively on a civilian basis, under the conditions laid down by law.”

2. The appointment of the heads of the intelligence services by Parliament and not by the President — a measure that can and must be laid down at constitutional level by adding a new paragraph to article 119 providing that “The heads of the intelligence services are designated for a period of 4 years in a joint sitting of Parliament.”

3. Limiting in time the term of persons appointed to public offices or dignities — something not provided for in the present Constitution, which can be regulated by introducing a new paragraph (paragraph 3) to article 116: “(3) Appointed public offices, or the offices and capacities for which direct designation is made and for which no competitive examination is held, may be held for a term of at most 4 years, renewable once only, unless another duration of the term or another number of terms is provided by this Constitution.”; and, the theme already discussed,

4. Forbidding the members of the intelligence services to “belong to political parties and to hold appointed or elected public office during the exercise of their function and for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the exercise of those functions” — as I have proposed that article 40(3) of the Constitution be amended and supplemented.

Of the need to demilitarise the intelligence services I have written repeatedly. In the explanatory memorandum drawn up for #TheSovereigntyAct I pointed out, two years ago already, that “Law 51/1991 on national security is a law prior to Romania’s entry into NATO and one that lays down a series of provisions of Soviet origin, such as those providing for the militarisation of the secret services.” That is why, if only for the sake of harmonising national legislation with that of our NATO and European Union allies, I said that the total demilitarisation of the intelligence, counter-intelligence, protection and special telecommunications services, and of those assimilated to them, was imperative.

Far more than this: the militarised — and at the same time secret (if not indeed occult!) — structure of Romania’s intelligence services places them beyond any control, not only that of civil society but that of the state as well, and at the same time grants them, de facto, total immunity before any jurisdiction.

This “omnipotence”, and likewise the impunity of the “military men” in the secret services, have caused the members of these services to constitute themselves into a true ruling caste exercising total, authoritarian and discretionary control over the apparent directors of the Romanian state. Unrestricted access to information about every aspect of the life of every inhabitant of Romania grants them an unlimited power exercised from the political level to the judicial and the economic, so that in the year 2023 there is no sphere of activity in Romania that is not worked like a puppet by the caste of the Securitate men.

By way of an aside: a businessman who, willy-nilly, inevitably ends up at the table of the Securitate men told me the other day that at the economic level a veritable battle is being waged between the Securitate clans. Why? For the simple reason that THEY ARE EVERYWHERE, so that inevitably, when one Securitate man strikes at or fleeces some third company, from that quarter there is invariably heard the howl of another Securitate man… whence the “competition” and the “fight” between the Securitate clans. What is certain is that everything outside the Caste of the Securitate men, everything that does not belong to the System, is irrelevant. Or becomes irrelevant the moment it meets the men of the System.

The demilitarisation of the services is not, however, the only remedy for this trouble; it is not the sole treatment for the Securitate metastasis that has spread through the country. The measure of demilitarisation must be coupled with the “democratisation” of the services by having the heads of the intelligence services appointed by Parliament and NOT by the President.

In fact the President is the “institution” of the Romanian state most easily controlled and worked like a puppet by the System. Whence the enormous stake of the presidential elections, in which, invariably, ONLY A MAN OF THE SYSTEM CAN WIN. Why? Because only the Man of the System must come to be in a position to control, however formally, the System, by appointing the “heads” of the services. This vicious circle can be broken only by granting the right and the “privilege” of appointing the “heads” of the services to Parliament, the institution in which power is (at least in theory) exercised collectively and which “is the supreme representative body of the Romanian people and the sole legislative authority of the country”. In this way, not only will the election of the President carry a smaller stake and thereby become less subject to the System’s influence, but at the same time Parliament — appointing the “heads” of the services which it also (again in theory) “controls” through its specialised committees, and taking part, through the presidents of the two Chambers, in the Supreme Council of National Defence (as we shall show in the coming days) — will exercise power directly in the Romanian state, Parliament thus becoming the prevailing power in the institutional architecture of the Romanian state.

The third measure designed to lift Romanian society out from under the domination of the Caste of the Securitate men is the limitation in time of the term of persons appointed to public offices or dignities. The Governor of the National Bank — in office for 33 years. The head of the Protection and Guard Service — in office for 19 years. The president of the Competition Council — in office for 14 years. Only three examples of persons occupying key offices in the Romanian state who have made themselves “eternal” in the positions to which they were appointed. Appointed by the System and kept in office by that same System. These “fixed stars” of the “empyrean” of the Romanian establishment are, beyond doubt, the key persons of the System, the persons indispensable to it, who confer stability and continuity upon the discretionary power of the Caste of the Securitate men. That is why one of the remedies for dismantling the Securitate System in Romania is to limit every appointed or designated office to at most two terms of 4 years each. Besides, if a person who is elected (at least in theory), such as the President of the country, may not have more than two terms, why should a person appointed to an office be able to hold that office or dignity for an indefinite period?

The last of the measures mentioned above among the remedies for combating the Caste of the Securitate men — a remedy of which I spoke on 11 January as well — is #LustrationOfTheSecuritate from political life, their removal or the disclosure of their names. I said then that this measure cannot be carried out otherwise than at constitutional level, for the introduction of such a provision into a sub-constitutional law would be struck down at once and rejected as unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court and by the System’s men who have been sent into that institution as well.

I find myself obliged to repeat: this measure, vital for Romania, can be taken only by revising the Constitution. Without any exaggeration: #LustrationOfTheSecuritate is the only and the last chance of survival for this nation.

In order to give effect to the constitutional norm as proposed for revision, I have proposed introducing a new sentence within the same article (all the amendments have been drafted in such a way that the revision does not entail renumbering the articles of the Constitution): “These professional categories may not belong to political parties and may not hold appointed or elected public office for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the exercise of those functions.”

This provision is inspired by the way the institutions of the United States work — our guiding beacon in matters of democracy, is it not? — where no member of the army or of the intelligence services may enter politics or be appointed to public office for 5 years from the cessation of his function. So it was with George Bush senior, with Colin Powell, with all those we know of and all those we do not. Now… if this is good and right in the United States, why should it not be so in Romania?! Consider, for example: had we had this constitutional rule, we should not have had… Ciucă, who from head of the army (Chief of the General Staff) became, immediately upon leaving that post, president of the National Liberal Party and thereafter Prime Minister of Romania, turning this country into a quasi-militarised state.

Not least, such a provision would prevent the Ciucă situation from repeating itself in the case of other “lads from the system”, members of the Securitate caste, who might “resign” from an intelligence service in order to enter a party at once, or to be appointed to high official office.

All the measures mentioned above, taken together, are the only ones capable of lifting the country out from under the rule and the control of the Services and out from under the domination of the foreign powers that control those Services; and thus they are the measures apt to make #Sovereignty a reality and not merely a constitutional statement. For we must be aware that nothing in Romania happens without the will and outside the strict control of the System: neither the post-“revolutionary” plunder, nor the alienation of our resources, nor the indebting of the country, nor the felling of the forests or the depositing of the gold in foreign banks, nor the measures taken during the pandemic, nor the forced vaccination… nothing, absolutely nothing was done without their will, without their helping and “commissioning” our “Betters and Masters” abroad…

If we understand where the evil comes from, we shall also know what “treatment” to apply.

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 8 February 2023 we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

179. 27 January 2023 — On the foreign troops

The invasion continues: France and Germany have decided to send more soldiers to Romania

“The soldiers are coming. The United States is keeping its troops on our country’s territory, and thousands of French and German soldiers will train alongside our own troops this year. (…)

The Franco-German military exercises are to take place at brigade level. (…) The decision was taken at the Élysée, where the French and German governments marked 60 years since the reconciliation of the two great powers.”

So ran a news item three days ago. We learned from the press that “THE SOLDIERS ARE COMING”, that “thousands of French and German soldiers” will enter Romania “for training”.

And we learn further that “the decision was taken at the Élysée, where the French and German governments marked 60 years since the reconciliation of the two great powers.” Just as the decision to prolong the “stay” of the 9,000 American soldiers, over whom a two-star general has been placed in command (fewer stars, it is true, than the General in Long Johns or those who hold forth on Antena 3), was taken in Washington without Bucharest being asked.

The trouble is not so much that we learned of it from the press… but that Romania’s Parliament and Government learned of it from the press as well.

So how is this? “The decision was taken at the Élysée”?! Not in Bucharest? Why not in Bucharest? Why was the decision to receive soldiers in our own country not taken in the capital of the country receiving the soldiers of other countries, allied though they be?

Usually, the act of sending soldiers into a foreign country, decided upon in a capital other than that of the country receiving the foreign soldiers, is called… an INVASION.

Do you want proof that I am not exaggerating? Try to imagine the converse: Mr Iohannis decides in Bucharest that Romania will send troops to France and to Germany. Or indeed to the United States, why not — are we not allies?

Plainly, such a thing is impossible. And that for the simple reason… well, you know. I have spoken of it before; I have said again and again that our status is that of a colony, of occupied, annexed territory, and by no means that of an “ally” or of “a member with equal rights in a union”… see also the matter of Schengen.

I shall not even speak to you of the extremely — and “still more extremely”, if one may put it so — dangerous slope down which the conflict in Ukraine has gone, a fact proved not only by the deliveries of weapons but also by the massing of troops on NATO’s eastern border, in the immediate proximity of the conflict… a “coincidence”, of course. In short, I shall refrain from further comment on what is obvious, so as not to “needlessly stir up panic”, so as not to disturb the “quiet” and the “peace of mind” of some of my readers.

I shall return, however, to a theme that I know irritates many men of the System… I shall return to the CAUSE of the situation in which we find ourselves.

And so I say it again: it is not the lackeys at the top of the state, controlled by the Securitate caste and by their masters abroad — it is not they who are to blame. That is how they are made, that is what they are… no more was to be had of them. Not even the fact that they got there, or that others work them like puppets, is what matters. It is natural that this should happen if it can: the craftiest run the game, and so it has been since the world began.

The trouble is that it was possible to come to this, that there “was room” for the abuses and the betrayals of the past 33 years… and the “space” for villainy, and for cowardice, and for abuse of power, and for betrayal was left — whether deliberately or perhaps not — by… the Constitution. Yes, however much this obvious fact may vex some, it cannot be got round. Nor ignored. For if we do not understand the cause of the trouble, we shall not manage to identify workable remedies either.

As regards the veritable invasion of our allies’ troops upon Romanian territory, a single sentence would have sufficed to clothe this situation in a form at least not humiliating for our nation:

“In time of peace, foreign troops may enter, be stationed upon, carry out operations upon or pass through the territory of Romania ONLY WITH THE PRIOR CONSENT OF PARLIAMENT and under the conditions laid down by law or by the international treaties to which Romania is a party.”

This wording of article 118(5) of the Constitution would spare the humiliations to which the Romanian state is subjected when it finds itself obliged to accept any number of soldiers of foreign powers, allied though they be, following decisions taken in foreign capitals and communicated to Bucharest through the press.

It is clear that the present wording of article 118(5) of the Constitution, namely

“Foreign troops may enter, be stationed upon, carry out operations upon or pass through the territory of Romania only under the conditions laid down by law or by the international treaties to which Romania is a party.”,

permits the Romanian state the status of “observer”, of “mere spectator”, in matters touching upon the entry into the country of foreign troops which may carry out even “operations” solely on the basis of “the international treaties to which Romania is a party”.

Yes, it is painful to acknowledge, but the root of the evil and of this people’s humiliation lies in #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration, the one that makes servility possible, the one that leaves room for — and indeed encourages — Romania’s status of vassalage.

That is why, in the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution entitled #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, we have introduced into article 118(5) of the Constitution the phrase “ONLY WITH THE PRIOR CONSENT OF PARLIAMENT”, which will make the access of foreign troops to Romanian territory conditional upon a vote in Parliament — a vote which, even if it be formal and cast in a “politically correct” manner by the members of Parliament to come, will spare us the humiliation to which we are subjected by our “allies”, who decide over the “head” of Bucharest which troops come to Romania or leave it.

I know it is hard to break out of clichés, out of our own “mental comforts” and self-induced certainties… but the evidence forces itself upon us: something must be changed. Everything must be changed, beginning with the foundation… that is, with the Constitution.

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 8 February 2023 we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

180. 28 January 2023 — On one more attempt

On “One More Attempt”, an attempt that amounts to a last chance

Yesterday my friend Sorin Roșca Stănescu wrote an article entitled “One More Attempt” about the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution entitled #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty. It is his first article on this subject; it comes two months and seven days after the launching of the project; and it is an article that says nothing about #TheCoalitionForTheNation — the “place” where “a group of jurists came together, some of them good specialists in constitutional law”, and from which set out this “generous project”, as he himself describes this “attempt to promote a revision of the Fundamental Law”.

But two old friends do not fall out over such small details, the more so as one of the friends is avowedly and irremediably “attached” to a political project competing with the one that gave rise to this “One More Attempt”. That being so, and his recent sympathies and effusions being known, I appreciate and thank my friend S.R.S. for having made this effort at objectivity.

Beyond these “small details”, I must tell you that S.R.S. is both right and wrong at the same time in his brief analysis of this initiative embodied in #TheConstitutionForTheNation.

S.R.S. IS RIGHT when he says that “the failed state to which Klaus Iohannis refers is a community of citizens without a Constitution. The Constitution of Romania is an ostrich-camel. Neither a parliamentary republic nor a presidential republic. A combination. And that is all. Moreover, from many points of view its provisions are outdated. Thirdly, such as it is, it is no longer observed. In ceding attributes of sovereignty we have, willy-nilly, given up a whole series of its provisions. The decisions of the Constitutional Court have come to be invalidated by the courts. In these circumstances, I think that what we call the political class ought to be given one more chance.”

So it is, and I shall go on saying it: the Constitution of Romania, de facto repealed by #ThePredoiuLaws, is an “ostrich-camel” not merely because it is a combination of a presidential republic with a parliamentary one, but also because it is a combination of a constitution theoretically protective of the citizen’s rights with one that strengthens excessively the power of the executive over the other powers in the state and that has left the “System” a clear road to take possession of Romanian society. In truth, all the ills of the past 33 years were, if not occasioned, then at least “permitted” by the present Constitution.

It — #TheConstitutionOfEuroAtlanticIntegration of 2003 — made possible the monopolisation of political, economic and legal life by the System and created the constitutional framework for Romania’s status as a colony. That is why, rationally and objectively speaking, any discussion of this or that political personage and of their deeds is utterly useless and beside the point, so long as their actions and the effects of those actions are caused by the System and made possible by the present Constitution — both of them subjects taboo for the press and for the greater part of civil society alike.

S.R.S. IS NOT RIGHT, however, where he says that “revision is a mistake” and that it “is the repetition of a major political mistake, one that profoundly marked the failed experience of the Social Liberal Union. Romania needs not a revision of the Fundamental Law but a new Constitution. From beginning to end. One that need no longer pass through the filter of the Constitutional Court. One that might also aim at setting the justice system upon new, modern foundations.”

In reality, the only guarantee that article 1 of the Constitution will be preserved — the article which provides expressly that

“(1) Romania is a NATIONAL, SOVEREIGN and INDEPENDENT, UNITARY and INDIVISIBLE State.

The form of government of the Romanian State is a Republic.

Romania is a democratic and social state governed by the rule of law, in which human dignity, the citizens’ rights and freedoms, the free development of human personality, justice and political pluralism represent supreme values, in the spirit of the democratic traditions of the Romanian people and of the ideals of the Revolution of December 1989, and are guaranteed.

The State is organised according to the principle of the separation and balance of powers — legislative, executive and judicial — within the framework of constitutional democracy.

In Romania the observance of the Constitution, of its supremacy and of the laws is mandatory.” —

These PROVISIONS CANNOT BE AMENDED OR CHANGED BY REVISION, for article 152, bearing the marginal title “THE LIMITS OF REVISION”, provides expressly as follows:

“(1) The provisions of this Constitution with regard to the national, independent, unitary and indivisible character of the Romanian State, the republican form of government, territorial integrity, independence of the judiciary, political pluralism and official language SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO REVISION.

Likewise, NO REVISION SHALL BE MADE IF IT RESULTS IN THE SUPPRESSION OF THE CITIZENS’ FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR OF THE SAFEGUARDS THEREOF.”

Article 152 of the Constitution proves why the fears induced in some, in the Securitate manner, are false — the fear that by a revision the unitary or indivisible character of the Romanian state might be given up (that is, the theme of “losing Transylvania”), or that certain rights and freedoms might be abolished or curtailed; and at the same time it is the chief reason why REVISING THE CONSTITUTION IS THE ONLY REMEDY THAT CARRIES NO RISK FOR THE STATE AND FOR THE ROMANIAN NATION.

A new Constitution written and adopted by #TheCoalitionOfBetrayal — Social Democrats, Liberals, the Hungarian Union and the Save Romania Union — without the limits clearly laid down by article 152 of the present Constitution, would not merely

NOT be “a chance for Romania to regain, by this means, its lost sovereignty”, nor a means whereby “under a new Fundamental Law we might protect the riches that remain to us. And first of all our people.” — as S.R.S. hopes without foundation —

but might, without any exaggeration, be the end of Romania’s statehood and the hastening of the disappearance of the Romanian people.

This hypothesis appears to be borne out by the very fact that S.R.S. says, in so many words, that “the Constituent Assembly (which would have to write a new Constitution — our note) might also propose, and nail down, a new administrative and territorial organisation of the state. Beginning with the euroregions.” — a hypothetical possibility that OBLIGES US TO OPPOSE THE WRITING OF A NEW CONSTITUTION, these being the very points which the adversaries of territorial integrity and of national sovereignty are pursuing.

Not least, the fact that this “new Constitution” would have to be written only by “the next Parliament”, which would have to “turn itself for a time into a Constituent Assembly”, starts from the premise that the amendment of the fundamental law ought to be carried out after 2024 — which would automatically entail the implicit preservation of the five-year term of the President of Romania, for surely no one imagines that the President or any member of Parliament would be willing to lose even an hour of his term, let alone a year.

Besides, to believe that politicians such as Ciucă, Ciolacu & Co. — all of them men promoted and protected by the System — can and will write a Constitution #ForTheNation is childishness… if not indeed a major error.

NO, I most certainly DO NOT AGREE TO A NEW CONSTITUTION WRITTEN BY THE NEXT PARLIAMENT.

I am absolutely convinced: THE CONSTITUTION MUST BE REVISED, NOW AND BY THE PEOPLE.

And I am convinced of this too, that the future will prove me right, whether we succeed or not: NOW is #TheLastChance, and

for all these reasons, even if the #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty project is “without many chances”, the fact that it is written outside Parliament and far from any wood inhabited by the System — a fact proved precisely by the circumstance that “the three great parties, the Social Democrats, the Liberals and AUR, are not in agreement about it” and “do not have the paternity of this project” —

means that #Constitution2023 IS THE ONLY CHANCE OF CARRYING OUT A SERIOUS CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM IN ROMANIA, A REFORM THAT ALSO OFFERS THE GUARANTEE THAT THE UNITY OF THE COUNTRY AND ITS TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY WILL BE PRESERVED, AND LIKEWISE THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS.

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 8 February 2023 we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

I learned today that I have been included on another “blacklist” of “people and vehicles of Russian propaganda in Romania”. And this in a book written by an “academic” who just “happens” to have a criminal conviction, one Sorin Bocancea.

Badea confirmed it too, on Antena 3 — what at first had seemed merely another piece of Securitate “gossip”.

And this only two days after it was said that I had been selling “sovereigntist certificates” alongside the exponents of the sovereigntist movement in Romania, all of them labelled as members of a supposed group of supporters of the Sovereignty Act…

Of course it is all a “coincidence” — plainly, one well orchestrated by the System.

What is certain is that the fight is growing fiercer. Anything is possible. Any abuse whatever.

182. 30 January 2023 — “But only when they become victims in the battles between the securitate clans.”

But only when they become victims in the battles between the Securitate clans.

Take today’s example: Gabriel Țuțu, head of the state company Romarm since the end of 2019 (who could have run Romarm, Romania’s principal supplier of defence equipment, if not a Securitate man?), detained today by the National Anticorruption Directorate together with the former manager of the national football team, Victor Pițurcă.

Mr Țuțu has an “impeccable” curriculum vitae. On Romarm’s website he is described thus:

* “An extremely motivated and proactive manager, with solid experience in the field of security systems and information security.

* A high level of integrity and the support given to the team define a leader’s conduct with proven results in the position of manager.

* 10 years’ experience in the Romanian Intelligence Service and 5 years in commercial security, during which time prolific collaborations were maintained with several governmental, diplomatic and intelligence agencies.

* Excellent management and leadership skills, with proven experience in security and risk management in difficult and high-risk environments.

* Experience in the management of state companies and governmental institutions.”

Today Gabriel Țuțu was detained for allegedly having received, through an intermediary, the sum of 50,000 lei in a matter in which the state is said to have been caused a loss of some 8 million lei.

The affair is of the greatest interest, for it represents the tip of the tip of the iceberg made up of the hundreds of millions of euros’ worth of business the Securitate men did during the plandemic. And yet… only 50,000 lei?

Clearly, Țuțu is not the stake here. Still less Victor Pițurcă. The target appears to be Lucovid Orbán.

Could it be Ciucă? Virgil Popescu? I do not know. Perhaps.

In fact what we are watching is a battle to the death between certain Securitate clans, fighting over a budget that has shrunk more and more in the wake of the plandemic, of the war in the east and of the imminent economic crisis. The money grows less and less, and they are very many and very greedy. And ferocious when their finances “go into the red”.

Last Thursday I told you that “this ‘omnipotence’, and likewise the impunity of the ‘military men’ in the secret services, have caused the members of these services to constitute themselves into a true ruling caste exercising total, authoritarian and discretionary control over the apparent directors of the Romanian state. Unrestricted access to information about every aspect of the life of every inhabitant of Romania grants them an unlimited power exercised from the political level to the judicial and the economic, so that in the year 2023 there is no sphere of activity in Romania that is not worked like a puppet by the caste of the Securitate men.

By way of an aside: a businessman who, willy-nilly, inevitably ends up at the table of the Securitate men told me the other day that at the economic level a veritable battle is being waged between the Securitate clans. Why? For the simple reason that THEY ARE EVERYWHERE, so that inevitably, when one Securitate man strikes at or fleeces some third company, from that quarter there is invariably heard the howl of another Securitate man… whence the ‘competition’ and the ‘fight’ between the Securitate clans. What is certain is that everything outside the Caste of the Securitate men, everything that does not belong to the System, is irrelevant. Or becomes irrelevant the moment it meets the men of the System.”

Everything that happened today confirms once more what I have been telling you for years.

This reality makes me say that Romania cannot be cured of this metastasis of the Caste of the Securitate men, which has spread through the whole of society, otherwise than by dismantling the System — a dismantling that cannot be carried out otherwise than by demilitarising the intelligence services and placing them under the strict control of Parliament, a Parliament that ought also to appoint the heads of those Services, which have become veritable organised-crime groups.

That is one of the principal aims of the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution called #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty — a bill against which the Securitate men, more or less under cover, are protesting violently.

For the time being, paradoxically, the only effective weapon against the men of the System is… the budget crisis, the “systemic” hunger for money created by the crises we have been living through these past years.

The winners will, of course, be the Securitate men again. But only those Securitate men who control the National Anticorruption Directorate.

For the time being I shall ask you once more to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 8 February 2023 we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

183. 1 February 2023 — On the strengthening of Parliament

On the Demilitarisation Act: the full text of the bill — see the page The Demilitarisation Act.

Enlarging the power of Parliament, as “the supreme representative body of the Romanian people” — as article 61 of the Constitution lays down — is the only possibility the Romanian people has of emerging from the present stagnation, of combating the Securitate metastasis and of exercising its national sovereignty.

That is why, in the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution entitled #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, no fewer than 13 amendments have been made to 7 of the articles of the present Constitution, with the sole purpose of enlarging Parliament’s power within the Romanian state. I know that to speak of Parliament and of enlarging its power is a very unpopular subject, quite as unpopular as the institution of Parliament itself. But one thing must be said plainly: that unpopularity is likewise an effect of the work of the Caste of the Securitate men, who on the one hand constantly discredit the institution, both through the “independent” press and through concerted campaigns of propaganda (do you remember the demonising to which Petrov subjected Parliament?), and on the other through the doings of certain members of Parliament, more or less “bestarred”, who by their acts and their omissions work directly for the destruction of the prestige of the supreme forum of the Romanian people.

One thing alone is certain: the weaker Parliament is, the more the personified dictatorship of the System will grow. And one further remark… what defines a democracy is not the popularity and the power of the president or of one or another of the state’s institutions of force, such as the army or the fire brigade. Powerful presidents and powerful institutions of force are to be found in the harshest dictatorships in the world too… When you say North Korea, what comes to mind?

That is why, at any price, at any risk, whether we like it or not, Parliament is the institution that must be strengthened, that must become omnipotent in Romania.

Today I shall speak briefly of the last three amendments (one of them already commented upon in the course of the discussion about the need to demilitarise the intelligence services).

The first of these amendments concerns article 119 of the Constitution and the introduction of a paragraph providing for the inclusion of the presidents of the two Chambers of Parliament in the Supreme Council of National Defence. At present that Council is composed “as of right of the President, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Defence, the Minister of Justice and the heads of the intelligence services.” That is to say, the executive power and its de facto masters — the intelligence services, what I have called the Caste of the Securitate men. This monopoly can and must be broken by introducing the representatives of the two Chambers of Parliament among the Council’s members as of right.

This measure, together with the designation, likewise directly by Parliament, of the heads of the intelligence services and the demilitarisation of those services, constitutes the precondition for the “de-Securitisation” of Romanian society. Without any risk of exaggeration, these measures would constitute the first and the true Revolution in Romania.

The second amendment of which we speak today is made to article 146(1)(a)–(d) of the Constitution; and although that article governs the powers of the Constitutional Court, the proposed amendments are apt to strengthen once again the power of Parliament and, by implication, democracy and national sovereignty.

Thus, a measure essential to enlarging Parliament’s power and diminishing the System’s influence within the Romanian state is the reduction in the number of members of Parliament required to refer to the Constitutional Court the possible unconstitutionality of laws, treaties and the regulations of Parliament, and likewise of ordinances and emergency ordinances (the unconstitutionality of these last two kinds of normative act being at present incapable of being raised by members of Parliament at all).

Concretely, reducing the number of members of Parliament required to refer a matter to the Constitutional Court for an a priori review of constitutionality from 50 deputies (as the present Constitution provides) to 20 deputies (under our proposal), and from 25 senators to 10 senators respectively, would constitute the guarantee of an effective review of the constitutionality of the normative acts adopted both by Parliament and by the Government. And if the reduction in the number of members of Parliament required to challenge normative acts before the Constitutional Court will be a guarantee that the parliamentary opposition can effectively and efficiently submit laws to a review of constitutionality, then subjecting ordinances and emergency ordinances to the same regime of review upon possible referrals made by members of Parliament (and not only by the People’s Advocate or by the courts of law or of commercial arbitration) will mean that the normative acts adopted by the executive are effectively subject to the same rules and the same rigours as those adopted by Parliament — which would amount to a return to normality. In other words, the executive, the Government, will after 33 years lose the unjustified privileges it enjoys in relation to the legislative power, the power that most faithfully represents the interests of the people.

In proposing all these amendments to Romania’s fundamental law, we are seeking to raise the need to transform Romania from a semi-presidential republic — a republic in which one single man, the President, holds a determining position within the state and a dominant position in relation to the powers of the state — into a semi-parliamentary republic, a republic in which, although we shall go on electing our President directly, effective and pre-eminent power will belong to Parliament.

I know you will tell me: “Parliament is not popular!” Or, “look at the members of Parliament we have today.” I know… but that is merely the effect of the faulty way in which the institutional and state architecture was designed by the present Constitution.

My answer is therefore a simple one: until we become conscious of Parliament’s fundamental importance and give it the pre-eminence it deserves, we shall not live in a democracy.

What is more, so long as we place the emphasis upon the President and upon his election, and leave the reins of the state in the hands of a single man, we cannot claim either that we are “democrats” or even that our interests are represented. You do not believe me? Recall the names of the Presidents the people has elected, and what they did for the people.

That is why we must have the courage to discuss openly, without evasions, and to seek remedies together. We! Not they!

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate (DO NOT FORGET — on 8 February 2023 we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation, at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

184. 3 February 2023 — “On the thievery of the multinationals and on the need for taxes, for solidarity and… for plagia…”

On the thievery of the multinationals and on the need for taxes, for solidarity and… for well-made plagiarism.

OMV Petrom has made the largest profit ever made by a company in Romania — a net profit of 10.3 billion lei last year, up 260 per cent on the year before, when it had made a mere 2.86 billion lei. This as a result of the “energy crisis” caused by Putin, of course, and in the middle of the post-plandemic financial crisis…

By way of an answer, Mr Ciolacu announced a few days ago his “programme of government”. The only remarkable and approximately coherent thing in it was that he would propose a “solidarity tax”, a levy of 1 per cent on the turnover of the multinationals.

To be sure, it is vague, badly expressed (how, in fiscal terms, does one define the notion of “multinationals”?) and… it is obvious: he has plagiarised our bill entitled “The Solidarity Act — the Act on the Taxation of Great Businesses and Great Fortunes”… (a bill that is still waiting for a courageous member of Parliament to lodge it in Parliament).

But I am not vexed that Mr Ciolacu plagiarises me by copying certain passages from the legislative initiative written and taken up by #TheCoalitionForTheNation.

I am vexed only that Mr Ciolacu has plagiarised our bill badly and incompletely. And very late, villainously late; for even if a “solidarity tax” were adopted today, it could come into force only from the next fiscal year.

Whereas we opened the debate as long ago as last summer (from 19 July 2022) on the bill entitled “#TheSolidarityAct — THE ACT ON THE TAXATION OF GREAT BUSINESSES AND GREAT FORTUNES, A LEGISLATIVE BILL AMENDING THE FISCAL CODE, Law no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code”, and on 24 November 2022 we closed the stage of consultations and public debate, settling the final form of the bill (and of its explanatory memorandum) and placing it at the disposal of any member of Parliament who… might have had the courage to take up such a bill. The proof is here — https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat/1792. At that same link you will also find the full text of the legislative proposal and of the explanatory memorandum. Ready to be taken up and copied.

Thus far no one has had the courage… I go on waiting, I go on hoping.

Our offer stands. We accept and even encourage plagiarism — but only if it is well done, not like Mr Ciolacu’s.

But let me remind you of the “essence” of the provisions we proposed more than six months ago:

“The Solidarity Act” introduces the “1, 2, 3 rule” and provides for a progressive tax on turnover for all companies with a turnover of more than 10 million euros. Namely:

— 1 per cent of turnover for taxpayers whose revenues have exceeded the leu equivalent of 10,000,000 euros;

— 2 per cent of turnover for taxpayers whose revenues have exceeded the leu equivalent of 100,000,000 euros; and

— 3 per cent of turnover for taxpayers whose revenues have exceeded the leu equivalent of 1,000,000,000 euros.

What is more, #TheSolidarityAct anticipated the “OMV problem” and would have countered effectively the Austrians’ “dribbling” by laying down a special tax of 5 per cent of turnover for “taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives and having annual revenues greater than 10,000,000 euros”… and that no one could have got round.

For #TheSolidarityAct also introduced a tax, likewise progressive, applying the same “1, 2, 3 rule”, upon the great fortunes of natural persons. Thus there was laid down a tax of

— 1 per cent of the total value of the fortune for taxpayers who are natural persons whose revenues, taken together with the value of their gains, their movable assets and the buildings in their patrimony as at 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 10,000,000 euros;

— 2 per cent of the total value of the fortune for taxpayers who are natural persons whose revenues, taken together with the value of their gains, their movable assets and the buildings in their patrimony as at 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 100,000,000 euros; and

— 3 per cent of the total value of the fortune for taxpayers who are natural persons whose revenues, taken together with the value of their gains, their movable assets and the buildings in their patrimony as at 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 1,000,000,000 euros.

In addition, #TheSolidarityAct introduced a tax upon the “shameless pensions” which, though paid out of the consolidated state budget, exceed the salary of the President of Romania, laying down for such pensions a rate of “90 per cent of the monthly taxable income represented by that part of the pension exceeding 11 gross national minimum wages”.

All the money thus gathered could have covered the holes in the budget, including a “hole” that #TheSolidarityAct would itself have created by instituting tax deductions for citizens with several dependants, thereby encouraging the birth rate in Romania. To that end our bill provided deductions for “taxpayers whose gross monthly revenues lie between 3,600 lei and 20,000 lei”, as follows:

“(i) for taxpayers with one dependant — 20 per cent of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with two dependants — 30 per cent of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with three dependants — 40 per cent of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with four or more dependants — 50 per cent of the income tax due.”

Simple, fair and effective. Such is the bill #TheSolidarityAct proposed by #TheCoalitionForTheNation.

So simple, so fair and so effective that no one has had the courage to lodge it in Parliament. Or even to plagiarise it properly.

I repeat: our challenge and our offer stand.

Which member of Parliament has the courage to lodge #TheSolidarityAct in Parliament?

185. 8 February 2023 — “Today, from 18.00, we meet at the Café for the Nation in Bucharest, Str Petru Cercel NR…”

Today, from 6 p.m., we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation in Bucharest, 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4,

where the second public debate will be held on the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution entitled #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, or #TheConstitutionForTheNation.

Anyone, any Romanian citizen, is welcome and is invited to make proposals, to voice criticism, or simply to attend the first public debate on a bill for revising the Constitution — a bill that comes wholly from the ranks of civil society and that was written outside Parliament and without the influence of the “institutions” and the “services” that have been governing our lives occultly for 33 years.

The subject of today’s discussions will be the amendments whose purpose is to strengthen and to guarantee the rights of the citizen, and more precisely the proposals concerning:

— the repeal of article 19(2) of the Constitution — the paragraph that permits the extradition of Romanian citizens to third countries with which Romania has treaties to that effect;

— the amendment of article 22(2) of the Constitution — where the proposed amendment provides for the express prohibition of subjecting Romanian citizens to any experimental treatment whatever, and makes any medical treatment conditional upon the complete and honestly informed consent of the patient;

— the amendment of article 48(1) and (2) of the Constitution — whereby it is to be stipulated at constitutional level that the family “is founded upon the freely consented marriage between a man and a woman”, and likewise the lifting of the requirement that a civil marriage exist before the religious marriage rite may be performed.

All these amendments have already been the subject of comments published on my Facebook page, namely:

— on 9 January 2023, on the subject of the extradition of Romanian citizens (https://www.facebook.com/dan.chitic/posts/pfbid02CRg5KwJ6aRLTF9Fx4ZgJ7…);

— on 10 January 2023, on the subject of the prohibition of compulsory subjection to experimental treatments (https://www.facebook.com/dan.chitic/posts/pfbid0SLC5NdGnBFmsXu9pjxLBHu…); and

— on 12 January 2023, on the subject of the traditional family and of freeing the religious marriage from the requirement of a civil one (https://www.facebook.com/dan.chitic/posts/pfbid02uDpXjhk4nvL2jCExxEi1E…)

It is plain that almost all the amendments have as their ultimate purpose the strengthening of the citizen’s rights (from those concerning the independence of the judiciary to those limiting the power and the influence of the intelligence services upon society, or defending and increasing the national wealth); but for reasons of organisation, or indeed “didactic” reasons, so that we may discuss each article more “settledly”, we shall confine ourselves today to these three amendments.

Of course, our proposed amendments may be not merely commented upon but themselves amended or supplemented. Indeed, following suggestions received from you, I have been advised to take up some of the amendments proposed in 2013 by the specialists gathered around Crin Antonescu.

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate, and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

186. 11 February 2023 — “ATTENTION: ATTEMPT TO UNDERMINE DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS IN ROMANIA — Dic…”

ATTENTION: AN ATTEMPT TO UNDERMINE DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS IN ROMANIA — dictatorship “is coming back”.

The plagiarists Ciucă (Prime Minister) and Bode (Minister of the Interior) are being original and are bringing totalitarianism back to Romania in plain, unequivocal forms. So that it may be clear to everyone.

#TheCoalitionOfBetrayal, through the National Liberal Party, at the highest level, is attempting to reintroduce dictatorship into Romania by way of a proposed amendment to the Criminal Code punishing with 1 to 5 years’ imprisonment “the act of a person who, in public, (…) by threats or by grave affronts to the dignity of persons, disturbs public order and quiet”, and, as an aggravated form, with 2 to 7 years if the act is committed by two or more persons together.

In other words, any protest whatever could lead to the arrest and the sentencing of its participants to a heavy term of imprisonment!

You do not believe me? Here is the infamous legislative proposal of those at the top of the National Liberal Party:

“11. Article 371 is amended and shall read as follows:

The act of a person who, in public, by violence committed against persons or property, or by threats or grave affronts to the dignity of persons, disturbs public order and quiet is punishable by imprisonment from 1 year to 5 years.

If the act provided for in paragraph (1) is committed by:

two or more persons together;

a person carrying a firearm, an object, a device, a substance or an animal capable of endangering the life, health or bodily integrity of persons, the penalty is imprisonment from 2 to 7 years.”

I do not know whether this proposal will be adopted. I hope not, for if this abomination were to pass Parliament we should enter dictatorship outright. I sincerely hope it does not pass. And I shall do everything in my power to see that it does not.

What matters is that this “initiative” SHOULD NOT BE FORGOTTEN. The intention of its authors is clear, and the form of the legislative proposal as it has appeared in the press makes them guilty of the act of ATTEMPTING TO UNDERMINE DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS IN ROMANIA.

Of course, that act is unfortunately not made an offence by the Criminal Code.

But it can and must be punished by the Romanian electorate.

Two days ago Diana Șoșoacă lodged in the Senate a piece of the bill called #TheSolidarityAct.

In fact Diana has taken up the amendments made six months ago by #TheCoalitionForTheNation, through #TheSolidarityAct, to the Fiscal Code — amendments that concern ONLY the taxation of great businesses.

This is very good. We thank her warmly for this great help given to us and to the Romanian people.

In the end we are all fighting #ForTheNation.

The bill also contains, however, provisions for the taxation of great fortunes, the taxation of the “shameless pensions”, and likewise tax deductions for taxpayers with several dependants — the last having as their declared purpose the encouragement of the birth rate.

I hope these amendments too will be introduced in the legislature as soon as possible. Perhaps by Diana. Or by AUR, which, through Antonio Andrușceac, has expressly undertaken to do so. Or perhaps by Dumitru Coarnă, who received them in December 2022.

It does not matter. What matters is that they should reach Parliament and be discussed and voted upon there.

I am glad that my work, our work, the work of those of us in #TheCoalitionForTheNation, is being turned to account and placed in the service of the nation.

I leave you here below the complete bill as it was written and generically named #TheSolidarityAct: https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat/1792

It is worth noting that we, those of #TheCoalitionForTheNation, wrote a bill under which OMV would not have been exempted from the “solidarity tax”, since — unlike the Government’s “specialists” — we included the marketing of petroleum products among the activities attracting the surcharge. And that for a simple reason: we, unlike the Government, are not the lawyers of the exploiters at OMV.

188. 17 February 2023 — “Today, 17.02.2023, Diana Șoșoacă tabled a second segment of #LegeaSolidarității written…”

Today, 17 February 2023, Diana Șoșoacă lodged a second segment of #TheSolidarityAct written by #TheCoalitionForTheNation.

It is the article of the bill amending article 77 of the Fiscal Code, which grants deductions to persons with several dependants who fall outside the 3,600-lei ceiling imposed by the present fiscal code but whose revenues do not exceed 20,000 lei.

Moreover, our proposal applies to all taxpayers — not merely to employees but to the self-employed as well.

There remains to be lodged, from #TheSolidarityAct, the part taxing great fortunes and the “shameless pensions”.

I am waiting to see who will move faster #ForTheNation…

The people needs you to move faster.

To those interested I leave here the complete bill as it was written and generically named #TheSolidarityAct: https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat/1792.

Take it and lodge it in Parliament as soon as you can.

Set aside your vanities, I beg you. Follow our example.

189. 22 February 2023 — “On the need for normality. The protest against the works on the Bystroye Canal at …”

On the need for normality. The protest against the works on the Bystroe Canal, outside the Embassy of Ukraine in Bucharest, at 2 p.m. — as a sign of normality.

I made no comment on the two speeches of yesterday. None at all.

There was no point. Whoever was interested, I am sure, followed them and understood what there was to understand from the position and the vantage point from which he watched them — everything was said plainly and clearly. Whoever was not, plainly has no interest in anything in the real world, and there is no point in troubling him… indeed I think that may well be the right choice, given the situation we are in.

Perhaps more important is what was said after yesterday’s speeches, far more explicitly and concisely:

Sergey Ryabkov (Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia): “The United States wants Russia to be defeated; in that case Russia will defend itself with any weapons — the world is on the brink of a global conflict”… or

Medvedev: “If the United States wants to defeat Russia, then we have the right to defend ourselves with any kind of weapons, including nuclear ones… If Russia halts the ‘military operation’ without having obtained victory, Russia will no longer exist, it will be blown to pieces; if the United States stops supplying weapons to the Kiev regime, the war will end.”

What is certain is that from yesterday onward anything is possible. At any moment. There remains a shadow of hope in the peace plan proposed and negotiated by China these very days. In short, God have mercy. Literally.

For all that, for the sake of our mental and physical health, we are bound to live normally, as though nothing were happening, as though we were not on the edge of the abyss…

And it is NORMAL to protest, as much and as best we can, against the aggression upon Romania and the ecological crime committed against the Danube Delta by our “good” neighbour Ukraine:

The Bystroe Canal must be closed or, at the least, blocked. IMMEDIATELY.

For which reason, today from 2 p.m. we shall meet at the Embassy of Ukraine to say together:

Ukraine oppresses the Romanian minority in Ukraine!

Ukraine is illegally building the Bystroe Canal, which constitutes an act of aggression against Romania!

That is why I call upon you to come too, so that together we may defend Romania from Ukrainian aggression.

Then, it is NORMAL as well that we should meet from 6 p.m. at the Coffee House for the Nation (at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest), where we await you to comment together upon, and to improve, the proposal for amending the Constitution called #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty (we await proposals and comments on the Telegram channel too: https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0).)

190. 3 March 2023 — “On Monday, 6 March 2023, we meet from 14.00 in front of the Embassy of Ukraine to say clearly and…”

On Monday, 6 March 2023, we shall meet from 2 p.m. in front of the Embassy of Ukraine to say clearly and aloud:

Ukraine, stop the aggression against the Danube Delta!!!

We await all of you who care about the destiny of this people, about the future of this country, whatever your convictions, leanings or political allegiances.

We await above all you, the greens, the ecologists, the supporters of the green deal: come and support the cause of the Danube Delta. Show that you are consistent with yourselves, with the principles and the values you proclaim. Come and show that you are Romanians too, and not merely “green”, and that between the “political correctness” of the “Slava Ukraini” kind and the urgent need to save the Delta… you choose the Delta and the national interest.

Then, from 6 p.m., we meet at the Coffee House for the Nation (at 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, Bucharest) to discuss #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty. Yes, next week the discussions will be held on Monday and not on Wednesday, as usual.

Post scriptum: I shall inform Greta of our protest as well. Greta Thunberg, of course. Who knows, perhaps she will turn up to support the Delta.

Post post scriptum: here is the latest message I have written to the “saviour of the planet”, Miss Greta Thunberg:

On Monday, March 6, 2023, we will meet at 2 p.m. in front of the Embassy of Ukraine in Bucharest to say loud and clear:

Ukraine, stop the aggression against the Danube Delta!!!

That’s why I make one more call, the same call:

As I have already said in several previous messages,

my name is Dan MV Chitic, I am a lawyer and I am writing to you from Romania.

I am calling on you in this way to ask for your help in an environmental problem of planetary gravity: the Danube Delta, a UNESCO site and Biosphere Reserve, is irreparably affected at this very moment by the dredging works carried out illegally by Ukraine on Bâstroe canal.

According to the words of an expert in the matter of the Danube Delta, the professor Alfred Vespremeanu, Director of the Marine and River Research Station “Sf. Gheorghe”, he explained in the press that “if you dredge the Bâstroe canal, then the first consequence in terms of hydrology will be that this arm will draw more water from the collateral arms. It is about the old Stambul, which is the largest branch in the Chilia Delta, and then the Oceacov branch, which is in an erosion phase anyway.”

“If the entire Chilia branch were to deepen up to Ismail (…) It would slowly draw more water from the Tulcea branch, from the Romanian branches — Sulina and Sfântu Gheorghe — which is not desired.”

The specialist’s conclusion is simple: “(Dredging the Bâstroe Canal) It is an unacceptable pressure in one of the few deltas that remain very beautiful and natural”

In other words, at these very moments, illegal work is being done that is destroying one of the most spectacular and valuable ecosystems in Europe and the world.

That’s why I appeal to you, dear Greta, and call you to Romania to come to the aid of the Danube Delta, thus putting your entire reputation and media power in support of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve.

Thank you in advance for the help you will give to the Danube Delta!

The mainstream media is beginning to speak of the great fortunes of certain top men of the System.

#TheSolidarityAct, proposed by #TheCoalitionForTheNation — the act that provides for the taxation of great fortunes — continues to be ignored by the members of Parliament to whom it was made available… already written. It needs only to be lodged with the Standing Bureaux.

This time we are working together with those of AUR, as we did before with Diana Șoșoacă and with Dumitru Coarnă.

That, as I see it, is what it means to bring together, to coalesce the patriotic forces: to work disinterestedly, without vanity and without empty ambitions of greatness, with each of them in turn… #ForTheNation.

By the way… I believe that we, #TheCoalitionForTheNation, have written more laws from the street than 90 per cent of the members of Parliament have ever written.

193. 14 March 2023 — “The System kills, the System destroys destinies, the System undermines the national economy, the System…”

The System kills, the System destroys destinies, the System undermines the national economy, the System has captured the leadership of the state, the System betrays the national interest… Yes, the System — that thicket of services and agencies, each more “intelligence” and more “secret” than the last — is a national metastasis, beyond any doubt.

The latest confirmation comes from the quarter where we should least have expected it: from Rareș Bogdan, first vice-president of the National Liberal Party, who says expressly that Bogdan Aurescu, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, is the System’s man. And we believe him. We have been saying it for a long time.

It is simple: the evil must be cut off at the root. The intelligence services must be demilitarised, and former or serving agents of those services must be prevented from reaching key civilian offices.

Radically: by laying down these rules at constitutional level.

That is why I set in motion the bill for #RevisingTheConstitution called #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, in which this is regulated clearly and without ambiguity.

Tomorrow, 15 March 2023, at the Coffee House for the Nation in Bucharest, 1 Petru Cercel Street, Sector 4, we shall discuss the following concrete proposals:

“Article 40(3) is amended and shall read as follows:

“(3) The judges of the Constitutional Court, the people’s advocates, national or European magistrates, the active members of the army, of the intelligence services, the police officers and other categories of public servants established by organic law may not belong to political parties. These professional categories may not belong to political parties and may not hold appointed or elected public office for a period of 5 years from the cessation of the exercise of those functions.”

“After article 116(2) a new paragraph, paragraph (3), is added, reading as follows:

“(3) Appointed public offices, or the offices and capacities for which direct designation is made and for which no competitive examination is held, may be held for a term of at most 4 years, renewable once only, unless another duration of the term or another number of terms is provided by this Constitution.”

“Article 118(4) and (5) are amended and shall read as follows:

“(4) The intelligence services and those assimilated to them shall be organised exclusively on a civilian basis, under the conditions laid down by law. The organisation of military or paramilitary activities outside a state authority is prohibited.”

“After article 119(1) a new paragraph, paragraph (2), is introduced, reading as follows:

“(2) The Supreme Council of National Defence is composed as of right of the President, the Prime Minister, the presidents of the two Chambers of Parliament, the Minister of Defence, the Minister of Justice and the heads of the intelligence services. The heads of the intelligence services are designated for a period of 4 years in a joint sitting of Parliament.”

We await you, to debate these proposals together — for our proposed amendments may be not merely commented upon but themselves amended or supplemented.

That is why we ask you to take part as well in this so necessary debate, and we await your comments and proposals on the version put up for debate and your own proposals for amending the Constitution on the Telegram channel https://t.me/+W-oH4Yyxi9pjNTE0.

194. 21 March 2023 — On moribund globalisation

On the Sovereignty Act: the full text of the bill — see the page The Sovereignty Act.

When I see these pictures I feel the urge to “quote myself” again… this time I bring back to your attention a post of 25 May 2022:

“George Soros announced to us yesterday (24 May 2022) that globalisation is dying. ‘Even when the fighting stops, as it eventually must, the situation will never revert to the status quo ante,’ he prophesies.

Yes, Soros is right. And he is right too when he says ‘That is why I say that our civilisation may not survive,’ upon observing that ‘other problems that concern mankind — such as pandemics, climate change and the avoidance of nuclear war, and the maintenance of global institutions — have had to take second place.’

‘Their civilisation’, the globalist ‘civilisation’, will not survive.

In truth, globalisation is already dead. The unipolar world in which a group of decrepit billionaires and autistic technologists decided the fate of the whole planet at some grand dinner in a Swiss resort or in one or another capital of the ‘civilised world’ came to an end on 24 February 2022. Whatever the outcome of the war in Ukraine, globalisation has ceased; it perished together with the demonising of Russia and the establishment of institutionalised Russophobia in the ‘civilised West’.

Many will hasten to tell me that it is impossible for globalisation to end, that the process is irreversible and that, as things now stand, the world can only be globalised.

Wrong. Globalisation, in the sense in which the term has been used until now, was the perfect synonym of cultural and social uniformity, of the abolition of traditional and social differences, of the interoperability and management of production and economic exchange — all of it under the aegis of a Western ‘intelligentsia’ which also set the agenda of global priorities and mankind’s to-do list.

That unipolar globalisation, synonymous with a world étatisme, has already ended.

The other globalisation — that of the exchange of ideas, goods and persons, but without a single command; the globalisation that has existed since antiquity with its Silk Road, or with those providential meetings of civilisations and traditions as in the Spain of the eighth to the fifteenth centuries, or in Syria until its destruction in the twenty-first — that globalisation will not cease. It cannot.

But the globalised étatisme of the United States and of its allies and satellites (not to say colonies) has come to an end.

The disappearance of the dollar as the sole medium of exchange at world level is the death certificate of this globalisation.

The appearance of the Chinese yuan and of the Russian rouble in international transactions, together with the activation of the BRICS bank in the global economy, are the birth certificates of the multipolar world.

Faced with this situation — apparently unforeseen by the former world hegemon, though very simple and easy to anticipate — the United States finds itself obliged to compensate for the loss of global control by tightening its control over, and isolating, the world it still leads directly: I mean here Europe, North America, Australia and Japan.

The countries under its leadership (the European Union included) are obliged to break off every contact with ‘the other world’, to refuse the exchange not merely of ideas with it but of goods as well. Plainly, in a first stage this measure will give a bubble of oxygen to the gasping economy of the former world leader, which takes on the office of ‘utilities supplier’ for its part of the world… For us, in the colony, the effects of the orders received from the metropolis are already visible. In today’s cabinet meeting alone, several measures will be taken to sever any link with ‘the world beyond’ the new iron wall: the Government will approve Romania’s withdrawal from the International Bank for Economic Co-operation and the International Investment Bank, two ‘eastern’ institutions of which we had been a member since 1963 and 1970 respectively.

But beyond the long-term economic effects, which we shall not discuss here and now, what is certain is that the Biden administration — the one under which globalism died — is incapable of realising that these measures are ‘pro-cyclical’, doing nothing other than leading to an even sharper division of the world… to a swifter death of the globalism they dreamed of. To the disappearance of the status of sole world power: the United States is about to fall from the rank of a global power to that of a regional power, the power of the ‘North Atlantic’ region.

And this the ‘prophet’ Soros seems to realise as well: ‘This could be the end of our civilisation’… It could not — it already is the end of Western domination over the planet. Throwing Russia into the arms of China (witness the joint manoeuvres of those countries in the Pacific) will lead, first, to a ‘splitting’ of the world in two (with the enhanced role of certain regional powers such as Turkey), and then, sadly, to China taking on the role of hegemon. But that is another ‘prophecy’.

What is certain is that Romania is at this moment on a collision course with history, and that the present leadership — by the unconditional surrender of all this nation’s initiatives and resources to a world power become regional, with no view to the national interest or to the historical destiny of this people — is doing nothing other than committing a grave act of #Betrayal.

For if the purpose of what I have called #TheCoalitionOfBetrayal — the Social Democrats, the Liberals, the Hungarian Union and the Save Romania Union — were not foreign to the national interest, and if the agenda of government were not strictly subordinated to the plans and interests of the metropolises from which we receive our ‘light’… this coalition of almost 90 per cent of Parliament would not have been permitted. Acts of betrayal (such as the rejection of #TheSovereigntyAct and the adoption of the amendments brought by OMV through Ciucă, Ciolacu, Kelemen and Pambuccian to #TheOffshoreAct) must be carried and secured by broad majorities. Just as today, this very day, the executive will approve the methodology for reporting and the information circuit in the National Electronic Register of Vaccinations… so their plans continue, only on a smaller scale, here in the colonies.

Much more might be said… but I know you do not like long articles. We shall return; until then, a conclusion:

Unipolarity is extinguished, globalisation has set.

Say good morning to multipolarity, and welcome to globalised regionalisation.”

I know… I tend to get them right. But it is hardly difficult.

196. 12 April 2023 — On the lists of disinformers

And so the propagandistic filth has appeared — the “article” prepared some months ago by the Soros networks of the Bucharest “press”:

“The network of lies: the Facebook influencers who ventilate conspiracies, disinformation and pro-Kremlin propaganda”

“Disinformation, pro-Russian narratives, far-right opinions and conspiracy theories are being rolled out on social networks in the context of the war in Ukraine and of the medical and economic crises of recent years. In Romania, the ecosystem for radicalising opinion, influencing public debate and altering democratic values uses the Facebook platform as its principal vehicle. The disinformation operation is led by public figures, politicians, lawyers and journalists with tens or hundreds of thousands of followers. Among the influencers of disinformation there stand out George Simion, Dana Budeanu, Cristian Terheș, Iosefina Pascal, Diana Șoșoacă, Mihai Lasca, Dan Chitic, Adriana Bahmuțeanu and Șerban Nicolae.

Flavia Durach, a specialist in the study of disinformation, explained in an interview given to Context.ro that the term disinformation “specifically defines information which is distorted or entirely false and which is disseminated intentionally”.

Internet users with a lower level of media education, who have a chronic distrust of the mainstream media and of the authorities, and whose thinking inclines towards conspiracy theories, end up being exposed almost exclusively to disinformation, adds Flavia Durach, associate professor at the Faculty of Communication and Public Relations of the National University of Political Studies and Public Administration in Bucharest, explaining that “in fact this balance is overturned between what would be an expert source and this alternative ecosystem of information, which only appears to be information, but in which you in fact find a mixture of scarcely credible information, some of it false, and at other times opinions that are not founded on evidence”.

Following the technical analysis carried out within the investigation The Network of Lies, in which we identified the sites publishing disinformation, we downloaded, with the help of the CrowdTangle API, the list of public Facebook groups and pages which had shared links to any of those domains. We refined the data so as to include only posts from the year 2022. We selected the groups and pages which had shared at least 3 links from those sites, yielding 1,696 Facebook groups and pages (map here). At a further stage the database was limited to those public groups and pages which had shared at least 5 posts containing links to the domains in question. Thus we reduced the initial collection to a total of 782 public groups and pages from Romania.

The map below, produced with Gephi, an open-source program, shows the sites with disinformation content (red nodes) and the connected Facebook groups and pages (nodes in other colours). The colour of the clusters of groups and pages depends on Gephi’s modularity algorithm, which groups together the more strongly connected nodes. This means that a cluster of Facebook groups and pages of a single colour supplied links to a particular site (or sites).

Dan Chitic is a lawyer and was one of the first promoters of the RoExit current, Romania’s exit from the European Union. Together with Daniel Dragomir, a former colonel of the Romanian Intelligence Service convicted of corruption and sent for trial by the Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism in the Black Cube case, he also founded an anti-European party, in 2019, called the National Alliance.

Together with his father, Chitic was a partner in a company whose majority shareholder was Sorin Roșca Stănescu, set up in 2004 and struck off in 2011. Later, Dan Chitic was S.R.S.’s lawyer. He also represented Diana Șoșoacă’s husband.

At the end of 2020, Chitic lodged with the Bucharest Tribunal an application to “bring the defendant Facebook before Romanian justice”, as the lawyer wrote on that same social network. His access to his page had been restricted after he had repeatedly breached the community standards. He was claiming damages of 50 thousand euros, but the application was annulled by the court.

He organised and took part in protests against the restrictions of the Covid pandemic period and incurred fines. He then appealed to his supporters to donate money so that he could pay the penalties, and posted his personal bank accounts on Facebook.

Towards the end of 2021, Sputnik ran the headline: “Dan Chitic and George Simion have joined forces”, after the two announced their mutual support for the projects they promote.

In 2022, the Sovereignty Act, devised by Chitic, Roșca Stănescu and other “representatives of civil society”, was lodged in Parliament by 23 elected members, of whom 15 from AUR, Diana Șoșoacă and Mihai Lasca. The bill, with its controversial provisions, which was also supported by George Simion, was rejected both by the plenary of the Chamber of Deputies and by that of the Senate.

Later, in August, the founding of a new party was announced, established by Dan Chitic, the physician Răzvan Constantinescu, a well-known adherent of Covid conspiracy theories, and others. The Coalition for the Nation is a sovereigntist and conservative party whose project for the country is set out by the Sovereignty Act, as Chitic maintains.

Disinformation is propagated on Dan Chitic’s Facebook pages, with more than 60,000 followers and 37,000 respectively, and also on the group on that same platform, called Alongside Dan Chitic, which he moderates and which has gathered more than 5,400 members in two years.

After Context asked him for a point of view, Dan Chitic wrote on Facebook: ‘A new campaign of calumny, demonisation and defamation is being prepared against me. I have been “officially” informed of it by the request for a “point of view” concerning what appears to be an article in which I shall be branded, with “politically correct” fury, as a “Putinist”.’ Dan Chitic did not answer the request sent by Context.ro.

Romanian sites directly involved in distributing disinformation, conspiracy-theory or far-right content, which promote Dan Chitic:

198. 9 June 2023 — “Sometimes, the fact that you do or have done what is or was right matters more than the result…”

Sometimes the fact that you do, or have done, what is or was right matters more than the result itself. In truth, not sometimes but always.

Today I observe that Elon Musk too has become a supporter of the ideas advanced and enacted in #TheSovereigntyAct.

We, those of #TheCoalitionForTheNation, proposed as long ago as 2021 clear legal rules and the criminalisation of altering the sexual identity of minors.

Let us give him a model of legislation in this field:

Law no. 272 of 21 June 2004 on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child, republished, published in the Official Gazette no. 159 of 5 March 2014, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

In article 9, after paragraph (1) a new paragraph, paragraph (1¹), is introduced, reading as follows:

“The biological sexual identity of the child acquired at birth may not be altered before the age of 18.”

In article 28, after paragraph (4) a new paragraph, paragraph (5), is introduced, reading as follows:

“It is prohibited to make available to children under the age of eighteen any information or material promoting departure from biological sexual identity, gender reassignment and homosexuality.”

Law no. 286 of 17 July 2009 on the Criminal Code, published in the Official Gazette no. 510 of 24 July 2009, as subsequently amended and supplemented, is amended and supplemented as follows:

In article 197, after paragraph (1) two new paragraphs, paragraphs (2) and (3), are introduced, reading as follows:

“(2) The act of causing a minor who has not attained the age of 18 to alter the biological sexual identity acquired at birth is punishable by imprisonment from 7 to 15 years.

If the act provided for in the preceding paragraph has been committed by a parent, guardian, teacher or instructor, or has produced physical consequences upon the minor, the special limits of the penalty are increased by one third.”

Yes — notwithstanding that those of #TheCoalitionOfBetrayal rejected this law, I know that I did what I had to do, even though I was marginalised and demonised for it.

The price paid was worth it… for when I look in the mirror I am, truly, not ashamed — neither before myself and my own, nor before God. And that is probably the greatest reward of all.

Parliament ought to bring the Government down, if only for the haste and for the Prime Minister’s manifest contempt towards the legislature — if not also for the lack of transparency with which Romania’s taxes and levies have been amended.

I say it again: even if every increased tax and levy were justified and necessary… the manner in which these amendments are adopted is UNACCEPTABLE.

201. 12 October 2023 — On revision and partial referendums

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the bill — see the page The Constitution of Sovereignty.

Someone has just sent me the recording below of a public statement by George Simion on the subject of revising the Constitution:

“Setting in motion the steps for 2 REFERENDUMS (?!?), for the family between a man and a woman and for cash…” (George Simion)

2 REFERENDUMS?! For revising 2 articles of the Constitution?

It is the sure road to failure… like the useless collection of signatures for “the removal of Iohannis”… (by the way, what came of that undertaking?)

Well then, we should hold 30 referendums… since we wish to amend 30 provisions, should we not?

Rarely have I seen such a display of incompetence… the whole legal department of AUR ought to be dismissed, for they have placed their leader in a more than embarrassing position.

Sincerely, this is not “friendly fire” within the “sovereigntist camp”, but merely a piece of advice:

George, talk to professionals — real professionals — you are, after all, a party polling 20 per cent. Talk to Gigi Piperea; he is with you, is he not?

Or ask us, those of the Coalition for the Nation… for we know how.

By way of proof, entirely free of charge and disinterestedly, we give you below the text of the law revising the Constitution, within the limits accepted by AUR, as it ought to read in order to produce the effects G.S. announces:

“Bill for revising the Constitution of Romania

The Constitution of Romania of 21 November 1991, republished in the Official Gazette no. 767 of 31 October 2003, is amended and supplemented as follows:

1. In article 44, after paragraph 9, a paragraph 10 is added, reading as follows:

“(10) The Romanian citizen has the right to keep, to use and to dispose of his property freely and unconditionally, according to his own will. The obtaining, holding and use of any currency in cash may not be limited or made conditional.”

2. Article 48(1) is amended and shall read as follows:

“(1) The family is founded upon the freely consented marriage between two persons of opposite sex, born male and female, upon their equality and upon the right and duty of the parents to ensure the upbringing, education and instruction of their children.”

After the initiating group is constituted before a notary, this bill, previously authenticated, is lodged with the Legislative Council and, once the opinion is obtained, is published together with that opinion in the Official Gazette. From the date of publication there are 30 days until the collection of signatures may begin. Then, if the 500,000 signatures are gathered (×2?!), one reaches Parliament — and only afterwards (and only if the bill is voted through) does one reach the referendum (×2?!?!).

Because the subject is too important to be buried by incompetence or, who knows, perhaps even by ill will.

We, the Coalition for the Nation and the Romanian Sovereigntist Bloc, as we have said and as we demonstrate by this very post, are ready to help any serious undertaking to revise the Constitution.

Only, those two amendments are wholly insufficient.

That is why I make a public appeal to George Simion’s wisdom:

Let us sit down at the table, let us find the best solution.

If we are “touching the Constitution” at all, we must revise everything that made it possible for us to reach the state we are in.

After Dej’s Constitution, which laid the foundations of the first republic — a republic made by and for the communists; after Iliescu’s Constitution, which laid the foundations of the second republic, a republic made by and for the Securitate men,

#TheTimeHasCome for the third republic: a republic made by and for the nation.

Let us set aside our vanities, let us stop listening to counsel that comes out of the woods, let us do what must be done #ForTheNation.

That is why we leave here the bill for revising the constitution which we put forward for debate, entitled #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty.

203. 29 December 2022 — “The year that begins in a few days will be a turning point, for after 2 years of pandemic …”

The year that begins in a few days will be a turning point, for after two years of pandemic (is it not true that you had all but forgotten that only a year ago you were being “responsible” and “showing that you care”?) and a year of war in eastern Europe, 2023 will come to seal the changes already begun. I shall try to tell it to you briefly, with the caveat that… I sincerely hope to be wrong in everything I write below.

On the one hand the West, the “Small Planet”, will do everything in its power to win the war in Ukraine. It is a matter of life and death for the West, for a military failure would hasten the loss of the hegemony of the United States and its allies over the planet. That is why the conflict will sharpen in the first part of the year, fed massively by the West with weapons, technology and intelligence. On the other side, beyond the territorial stakes and beyond Putin’s game with the West, Russia too cannot afford to lose in Ukraine, for its military strength together with its natural resources are the only arguments that give it an important position on the “Great Planet” — a position that would at once be taken over entirely by China in the event of a Russian military failure (which is, incidentally, the reason why China does not support Russia militarily). In other words, a defeat in Ukraine would throw Russia outside the great games on both the Small Planet and the Great one, and the defeat could be fatal to Russia — as my friend Dan Diaconu rightly observed in his article today. That is why there are arguments enough for a major escalation of the conflict around May or June to be not merely possible but probable, and for tactical nuclear weapons to be used should Russia fail to take the four Ukrainian provinces by conventional means.

At the same time, independently of how the war goes, the tendency of the states of the Great Planet to organise themselves around the BRICS structure will continue. The international monetary system as we know it will be shaken (still more) severely, which will sharpen the economic crisis towards which we of the Small Planet are heading at increasing speed. Plainly, a victorious Russia will catalyse this process and hasten the great rupture between the two “Planets”.

And speaking of crisis… the crisis will not come. The crisis is already here; only many still refuse to accept it. On the “Small Planet” the crisis is masked by the hundreds of billions pumped into the West’s war effort. But that money, made with a pen and turned into armaments and aid for Ukraine, will sharpen the already galloping inflation and will cast into poverty tens of millions of citizens of the “civilised world”, who will see a lifetime’s savings melt away within a few years… After the first year, more than 20 per cent of the real value of savings and incomes has already evaporated. Consumption will fall. It will be said that this is a consequence of the population becoming conscious of ecological problems… False. It will be nothing but poverty.

Poverty which will bring instability and revolt on the “Small Planet”. Whence the Western establishment’s fear of losing control over rebellious populations. Whence the tightening of control over the population and the hardening of censorship. Whence… dictatorship. Yes, in almost all the West the screw will be turned hard in 2023, and rights and liberties will be drastically curtailed.

As for us, here in Romania, we feel all this already. For from our status as a fourteenth-rate colony, not only can we not influence the major decisions of the world’s great — which is obvious — but we shall not even try to act in the national interest, slaloming among the interests and vanities of the mighty. No. We shall merely follow to the letter the directions traced by fireflies greater or smaller. The only unknown is how zealous the local gauleiters will be in carrying out the orders they receive. And I believe they will be more servile and more treacherous than ever. That is why the coming year will be a “special” one.

The System will be more and more present and more and more visible — a fact confirmed by the amendments to the code of criminal procedure made yesterday, in the last cabinet meeting of this year.

It, the System, will prepare Iohannis’s replacement. And it will show him to us. Very well: two or even three versions of the same puppet will be offered, each version coloured differently, of course. At the same time, the “lads with blue eyes” will annihilate every possible alternative: they will divide it, demonise it or ridicule it, or all of these at once — anything to hold back a feeling of discontent which will grow as financial troubles multiply.

#TheCoalitionOfBetrayal, though it will remain functional in fact, will break up, probably in the first half of the year. No, they will not quarrel over the national interest; they will have to mime a struggle led by the future presidential contenders, two of the “puppets” of whom I spoke.

Our resources will continue to be “externalised”, out of “solidarity” with the old continent, of course.

We shall be still poorer, still more frightened, still more divided.

So much for the “prophecies”. For beyond the rather sombre landscape which I believe the future holds for us, we shall have to do what we know to be right and what we know we must do. Whatever the chances of success, whatever the utterly disproportionate strength of the adversary. The truth must be confessed at any price; the good must be done at any risk.

That is why next year too we shall go on doing what we have to do:

#TheCoalitionForTheNation will launch the most interesting programme of… but that I shall tell you presently.

And, as you already know… #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty will enter public debate from January — debates which will themselves displease the System, I know that. But they will also give rise to a great deal of discussion and polemic among men of good faith, discussion apt to awaken consciences… perhaps even the national conscience. For yes, I assure you that the discussions concerning #Constitution2023 will mark the coming year (let that be part of the “prophecy” too).

In short, as the poet says: “Be it one thing, be it another… what is written for us too, we shall bear it all gladly, be it peace, be it war.”

I have left above the “prophecies” made exactly a year ago, for the year 2023, of course. I leave it to you to draw up the balance of what came true.

By tomorrow I shall try to set down the forecasts for 2024 as well.

Until then, let us try to be optimistic.

The steamroller of sexo-Marxism has reached the Balkans too. Greece is the first victim. Romania is next, at best next year, after the elections. If not sooner.

That is why I have opened the discussions and the preparations within the Romanian Sovereigntist Bloc for setting in motion the procedures to amend the Constitution — a Constitution in which it will have to be stated expressly that “the family is founded upon the freely consented marriage between two persons of opposite sex, born male and female…”

That is why we shall have to gather millions of signatures for #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty.

205. 2 February 2024 — “By way of conclusion after the launch of the “Constitution of AUR””

In place of a conclusion, after the launching of “AUR’s Constitution”

If the System wished to create a valve for releasing the sovereigntists’ fury, this is how it would go about it: it would amend 3 paragraphs of public impact but utterly neutral — some of them indeed favourable — for the Securitate men and the oligarchs, deceiving a few weighty names into supporting the “great reform”. Moreover, it would be the ideal vehicle for certain accepted, if not favoured, parties to reach a significant but not decisive percentage.

Because… in the end… who has the most black money, who has a great deal of cash from border trafficking, from drugs, from anything at all — trafficking controlled by “them” as well?

Why, “they” do. The men of the System. All of us together have not as much cash as the crumbs in the “pocket” of one of them.

And so, leaning upon our legitimate wish to be free to hold cash… they will be able to launder wholesale, as they do now, the immense sums of cash they have. It is that simple.

Then the wording “man and woman” proposed for article 48 of the Constitution, too vague in our days, will also permit marriage between transgender persons… you will see then a flood of sex-change operations. There will come, besides, a decision of the European Court of Human Rights or of the Court of Justice of the European Union which Romania will be obliged to observe under the present article 148 of the Constitution… and that will be that: we shall be a rainbow country and a “traditionalist” one at the same time.

In truth, without radical, far-reaching amendments to the Constitution which strengthen all the citizen’s rights as a whole and which attempt to annihilate the “omnipotence” of the System, the three amendments proposed by AUR are merely a cosmetic touch upon the squalor of the Romanian state… in fact, an electoral vehicle. And nothing more.

And the first purpose of it is to smother the only real constitutional reform that would take place in Romania in the past 33 years: #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty, the only one capable of creating #TheThirdRepublic, a republic of the citizens. It is exactly what they did during the collection of signatures for #TheSovereigntyAct. The same people. Again against us.

And, as then, so today, we received assurances at the highest level that we should work together and gather signatures together for both projects.

For all that — old and already burned so many times — I still believe in honour and good faith.

I know, every chance is that I shall be burned once more… I know that very well.

What is very sad is that, unfortunately, none of this was noticed by many, very many valuable people — most valuable people, whom I sincerely love and admire — which is why they fell into this very skilfully laid trap… and that is one more proof that the System does not sleep.

And yet… what if I have been wrong? What if I am accusing these people, who want the good of the country, for nothing? What if I am sinning by accusing them of betrayal and villainy for nothing?

What if they really do gather signatures for #TheConstitutionOfSovereignty as well?

Then I shall ask forgiveness and weep bitterly.

And I shall even vote for their presidential candidate…

The future will prove and demonstrate to us… whether the past mends itself in a loop, whether he who stings you two or three times can also be honest once, and whether the System is truly in all things and everywhere.

206. 2 February 2024 — “Disinformation in prime time on Antena 3!!!”

Disinformation in prime time on Antena 3!!!

They have just said that the Sovereigntist Bloc wants the Constitution revised (which is true) and a monarchy established with “a monarch from the imperial house of Japan, of conduct above all suspicion” (which is FALSE!)!!!

In reality, this “original” opinion belongs to Pavel Șuian, a former Romanian diplomat, who said in an interview for România Liberă that Romanians would need “a monarch from the imperial house of Japan, of conduct above all suspicion, of unrivalled prestige in the world, who could restore to Romanians the hope of national rebirth.”

In reality, the Sovereigntist Bloc alliance is putting forward a revision bill called the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty, seeking a #ThirdRepublic and not a monarchy — if only because art. 152 of the present Constitution, headed “Limits of revision”, expressly provides that

“(1) The provisions of this Constitution concerning the national, independent, unitary and indivisible character of the Romanian State, the republican form of government, the integrity of the territory, the independence of the judiciary, political pluralism and the official language may not be the object of revision.”

So even if we wanted a monarchy, the present Constitution does not allow it. It is simple!

Discussion is good, however original it may be. Disinformation is NOT!

What remains, therefore, is the DISINFORMATION put out by Antena 3.

A sign that our revision project is a real danger to the System.

Our project — not other people’s minor copies!

Today, 13.03.2024, under Law 189/1999, the bills “#ConstitutionOfSovereignty” and “#SolidarityLaw” were filed with the Legislative Council for its opinion.

This is the moment to say a great thank you to the person whose contribution to these two bills, and to the #SovereigntyLaw, was decisive:

Without the rigour, the inspiration and the consummate legislative craft of my friend Ingrid, all these citizens’ legislative initiatives would have been no more than declarations of good intentions.

I also thank here every person who made direct and substantial contributions, such as Mrs Gabriela Baltag, or gave extremely valuable advice and suggestions, such as Mr Adrian Severin, Mr Toni Neacșu, Mr Valentin Busuioc, or Mr Sorin Roșca Stănescu.

Not least, I say THANK YOU to the members of the Coalition for the Nation and to the dozens of “ordinary citizens” who took part in the debates and who made this initiative a living one, brought to completion through a long dialogue and through debates that were at times stormy.

After the opinions are obtained, in about 30 days, and after publication in the Official Gazette, comes the hardest stage — the one in which we shall need to gather at least 500,000 signatures.

That will be the stage in which every one of you will be needed.

And for that I THANK YOU already, every future VOLUNTEER!

Your unborn children and grandchildren will thank you for it too, I assure you!

209. 13 March 2024 — “After a sitting of more than 4 hours, until close to midnight”

After a meeting of more than 4 hours, lasting until close to midnight,

the Coalition for the Nation, following the new course assumed by the new leadership of the Romanian Sovereigntist Bloc,

has decided to leave the BSR political alliance.

The reasons behind this decision are:

— the failure to take ownership of the Constitution of Sovereignty project and of the principles set out in the political programme “The Third Republic” put to the alliance by the CpN;

— the violent rejection of support for the candidacy of Mr Dan Puric, held to be “pro-Russian”, and the support, even if only hypothetical, for the candidacy of Mr Mircea Geoană;

— the failure to observe minimal democratic rules in taking decisions within the BSR, even so much as convening meetings and publishing the agenda before sittings at which crucial decisions are taken, such as admitting new members to the alliance or electing a new president of the alliance/party.

Without wishing to enter into sterile disputes with our former allies,

we wish that God may show them the best path for the people they wish to represent and to lead!

We, the Coalition for the Nation, shall go on supporting the programme “The Third Republic” and the “Constitution of Sovereignty”.

On the Demilitarisation Law: the full text of the bill — see the page Demilitarisation Law.

For those who can still hope, for those who still want to believe: an appeal for unity for a sovereign Romania, for a THIRD REPUBLIC!

This post is not for everyone. It is only for those few among us who, understanding and accepting reality, can nevertheless still hope and still want to believe. Personally… I am striving with all my might to be one of them, because, beyond the personal success of certain political leaders — whom I sincerely congratulate here — I cannot fail to note the electoral disaster of the patriotic and sovereigntist movement in Romania. Yes, it was a disaster: to be voted for by only 20% of the electorate after the horrors of the plandemic and the imminent catastrophe in Ukraine is a disaster. I shall not comment here and now on the causes or the responsibilities for that disaster. Not now, because right now I want to believe that it is not all over yet, that our generation has not failed.

Right now I stubbornly hope and believe that something can still be done!

And that is why I propose that, at the eleventh hour, we all gather together — “AUR people”, “Șoșoacă people”, “CpN people”, “Peasantists”, “patriots”, “nationalists” — around a single project, to give Romania a chance, to prepare for the autumn elections.

The project I put to you is the CONSTITUTION OF SOVEREIGNTY — THE THIRD REPUBLIC, the constitutional amendment bill published on Friday, 7 June 2024, in Official Gazette no. 531, which you can find here: http://www.monitoruljuridic.ro/act/ini-iativ-legislativ-din-7-iunie-20…

We need 500,000 signatures, which we must gather in the next 4 months (the last 2 months being set aside for the formalities), in order to send to Parliament this project which will change Romania from its foundations — as is already confirmed by the mud with which the systemic-globalist press has greeted it. But beyond the deep reform of Romania brought by the 50 amendments proposed to the Constitution of Romania, this project may be the last chance to come together for the final assault we must prepare for this autumn — an assault in which names and personal vanities will count for very little and in which only the principles and values that unite us will be able to make the difference.

That is why I invite you all to take part in this last effort and to sign up as volunteers in the coming days at https://www.constitutiasuveranitatii.ro/deveniti-voluntar/. If we are enough volunteers, our project will have a chance… and together we shall be able to go on believing and hoping!

And we have both cause and purpose to come together in this colossal collective effort which it is our duty to make, for this is how we fight for:

1. strengthening and guaranteeing the rights of the citizen (articles 1, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 28, 34, 44 and 48 of the Constitution will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— the express mention of the equality of the three powers gives them, in addition, a constitutional guarantee and, at the level of cooperation between them, excludes any tendency towards a possible ranking among them;

— the essence of the rule of law is compliance with court judgments; the practice of recent years and the conduct of those called upon to comply with a court judgment have confirmed that a constitutional enshrinement of this obligation is needed;

— internationally, the phrase “optimal and predictable” has been used since 2004; it is more current and consistent with the reality of the legislation, with its application and with the real dysfunctions, namely the heavy workload, the shortage of staff and logistics, the unstable legislation;

— the prohibition of subjecting citizens to experimental medical treatments, or to any medical treatment whatsoever without the written, full and honestly informed consent of the patient;

— protection of children’s sexual identity acquired at birth;

— the pre-trial detention warrant is issued by the judge of rights and liberties. It is important that this measure be taken only by a judge of the court with material jurisdiction to try the merits of the case, avoiding the situation in which detention is ordered by a judge of another court situated in the same territorial area as the prosecutor’s office making the application, while the trial is conducted by a different court (a situation existing in current judicial practice). The provisions on pre-trial detention (including those on jurisdiction) must be regulated at constitutional level, since individual liberty must be protected from arbitrariness at that level;

— the prohibition of surveillance of the Romanian citizen without the prior authorisation of the court;

— without the express mention of a penalty under the law, the constitutional text does not require the enactment of binding rules to prevent the possible use of unlawfully obtained evidence;

— the principle of equality of arms between prosecution and defence is a necessity, being a guarantee of the parties’ right to a fair trial under art. 6 ECHR, a guarantee imposed as a mandatory requirement by the European Court in all cases ending in the conviction of the Romanian State;

— the additional guarantee of the inviolability of the home must be taken into account, because a search is sometimes ordered by a tribunal in a case in which jurisdiction to try the merits belongs to the court of appeal;

— a practice has taken hold which has wrongly become the rule, of issuing authorisations at the stage of preliminary acts, when, in order to guarantee citizens’ rights, the requirement of the opening of a criminal investigation ought to be imposed. Not infrequently, recourse is had to special laws (the National Security Law) with more generous limits in this matter as regards the conditions of the authorisation given by the judge. In this latter case the random allocation system, mandatory in all other cases in which a court is seised, is circumvented, since the judges of the High Court of Cassation and Justice who issue national security warrants are “specially designated” judges, not subject to the principle of random allocation;

— strengthening and guaranteeing the right to a defence without interference or conditions on the part of the State;

— the prohibition of limiting or making conditional the obtaining, holding and use of any currency in cash;

— the family founded on the freely consented marriage between two people of opposite sex, born man and woman;

— the right of the person to self-determine and to develop freely according to their own free will;

— the prohibition of increasing, diminishing, disturbing or altering the physical or mental individual integrity of the person by technological means without their consent;

2. limiting the power and influence of the intelligence services over society (articles 40, 116, 118, 119 will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— members and former members of the intelligence services may not hold appointed or elected public office for a period of 5 years from the cessation of those functions;

— the intelligence services and those assimilated to them will be organised exclusively on a civilian basis, under the conditions of the law, which means the demilitarisation of the intelligence services;

— the heads of the intelligence services will be appointed by Parliament in a joint sitting of the two chambers;

3. increasing the power of Parliament (articles 62, 65, 72, 74, 75, 108, 115, 118, 119 and 146 will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— strengthening democracy and increasing the representativeness of Parliament by imposing at constitutional level an electoral threshold of 1% for entry into Parliament;

— Parliament will designate the Prosecutor General and the Chief Prosecutors of the National Anticorruption Directorate and of the Directorate for Investigating Organised Crime and Terrorism;

— we favour the removal of the final sentence concerning the revocation by the Chamber of the measure taken in the case of a flagrant offence. The interference of the Chambers, by revoking such measures in the course of a criminal trial, infringes the principle of the separation of powers in the State and the independence of the judiciary;

— lowering the number of signatures required for a citizens’ legislative initiative from 100,000 to 30,000;

— abolishing the tacit adoption of laws;

— limiting the legislative delegation to the executive;

— the exclusive right of Parliament to give prior consent for foreign troops to enter, be stationed or conduct operations on Romanian territory in peacetime;

— the inclusion in the Supreme Council of National Defence of the speakers of the two Chambers of Parliament;

— lowering the number of members of Parliament who may refer a matter to the Constitutional Court from 50 to 20 deputies and, respectively, from 25 to 10 senators;

4. diminishing the power of the President (articles 83, 90, 94, 103, 142 will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— reducing the President’s term from 5 to 4 years;

— limiting the President’s right to call referendums;

— the President will award the ranks of marshal, general and admiral only with the binding opinion of the specialised committees of Parliament;

— obliging the President to designate as candidate for Prime Minister the candidate put forward by the party with the largest number of members of Parliament;

— the President will no longer appoint judges to the Constitutional Court;

5. strengthening and guaranteeing the independence of the judiciary (articles 124, 125, 126, 132, 133, 134, 146 and 147 will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— increasing administrative control at court level by enlarging the power of court presidents (evaluation, designation to other management posts, delegation, secondment, transfer) is an obvious danger to the independence of judges, an independence which must be guaranteed at the highest level;

— the non-involvement and non-membership of judges in the secret services, and also in occult, secret or discreet associations and societies, is mandatory;

— the exclusion of the political factor from the appointment of judges, namely of the President of Romania; this mechanism must be rethought, given that proposals for appointment belong to the guarantor of the independence of the judiciary, namely the Superior Council of the Magistracy; for prosecutors, the proposal for appointment may be made by the Public Ministry, whose powers are at present exercised through the Prosecutor’s Office attached to the High Court of Cassation and Justice;

— besides teaching posts in higher education, the presence of judges must also be guaranteed in teaching posts at the National Institute of Magistracy (which may in future be rethought as the National Institute of Judges) and the National School of Clerks. Similar additions may be made as regards the presence of prosecutors in teaching posts at the National Institute of Magistracy (which may in future be rethought as the National Institute of Prosecutors) and the National School of Clerks;

— the independence of the judiciary can be guaranteed only by judges, since only they enjoy real independence. It is therefore necessary to rethink at constitutional level the authority which provides guarantees of judicial independence and thereby consolidates the rule of law, namely the Superior Council of the Magistracy, of which prosecutors will no longer be members;

— the Superior Council of the Magistracy may comprise a maximum of 10 judges, each elected by the general assemblies of judges across the whole country, a circumstance apt to ensure full representativeness of those elected (who, moreover, represent all judges and not only those of the court from which they come). The structure of the number of judges corresponding to each court must be rethought, in relation to the number of courts and of judges existing nationally;

— the length of members’ terms must be rethought, since the six-year period has not always produced the best results, but only a consolidation of influence and of the abuse of power;

— likewise, it must be expressly stated at constitutional level that the term of the president of the Superior Council of Judges is one year, and that this term of office may not be extended, renewed or subjected to any other “legal innovation”;

— the provision concerning the participation of the President of Romania in the sittings of the Council, introduced at the 2003 revision, must be repealed;

— the procedural rules concerning the decisions handed down by the Superior Council of Judges must be removed and readapted as regards their legal nature and the remedy against them;

— the Constitutional Court will be able to find a treaty unconstitutional even after ratification;

— failure by judges and prosecutors to comply with the decisions of the Constitutional Court will constitute a disciplinary offence and will be sanctioned under conditions laid down by an organic law;

6. defending and increasing the national wealth (articles 116, 136, 140 will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— minimum and maximum budgets set by the constitution: 6% — education, 9% — health, 2% — defence in peacetime;

— appointed public offices, or the offices and positions filled by direct designation, will be held for a maximum of 2 terms of up to 4 years;

— the royalties due under concession contracts will be updated to the level of prices in the European Union every five years;

— the Court of Accounts will monitor the management of public resources and will report its findings to Parliament at least once a year, the Report being public;

7. strengthening democracy, guaranteeing national sovereignty and defending the Supremacy of the Constitution and of the sovereign interest of the people in the conduct of international relations (articles 70, 97, 120, 148 and 149 will be amended and supplemented), namely:

— the possibility of removing by referendum those elected by direct vote: the President, members of Parliament, mayors and presidents of county councils;

— the fulfilment of obligations undertaken by Romania through treaties only in compliance with the Constitution of Romania and in the higher and sovereign interest of the Romanian people;

— Romania’s accession to, and withdrawal from, international bodies and alliances will be effected only by a law adopted by the sovereign decision of the Romanian people expressed by referendum.

Our fate and that of our children, the future of Romania, depend on us alone!

Can you still believe and hope that together we can change something?

Twelve days ago we launched the signature-gathering campaign for the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty.

I waited for those at AUR to offer support, as Claudiu Târziu personally undertook to do.

Nothing — not the slightest trace of honouring their own commitments, either from Târziu or from Simion… as usual!

Instructions for filling in the “List of Supporters”

of the citizens’ legislative initiative entitled

“Constitution of Sovereignty — THE THIRD REPUBLIC”,

published in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 531/7.VI.2024

1. Download and print ONLY the List made available by the initiative Committee.

2. Fill in the List writing neatly and preferably in block capitals — illegible or partly illegible entries will be annulled!!!

3. Each “List of Supporters” is to be filled in with the details of citizens domiciled in a SINGLE Administrative-Territorial Unit (UAT), that is, citizens domiciled within the area of ONE SINGLE TOWN HALL (what matters is the formal domicile, the one on the Identity Card, not the actual one — the residence!). In Bucharest, Lists are to be drawn up for each District separately. More precisely, if we have before us 3 citizens domiciled in 3 different UATs, we shall draw up three different lists. By way of example: one citizen domiciled in Bucharest District 1, one in District 3 and a third in the commune of Vânători, Giurgiu County — we shall draw up 3 Lists of Supporters: one for the Municipality of Bucharest District 1, one for the Municipality of Bucharest District 3 and one for Giurgiu County, commune of Vânători. Those in the diaspora will proceed in exactly the same way: a person living in London but whose domicile (last domicile) on their identity document is in the commune of Vânători, Giurgiu County, must be entered on a separate list from another person also living in London but whose domicile on their identity card is in Bucharest District 3.

4. We, the volunteers, must fill in each field carefully, checking the accuracy of the details on the identity cards.

5. Under “Domicile” we enter only the street…, number…, block…, flat…; the details concerning the County or the Municipality of Bucharest, and respectively the Town, Commune or District, are to be entered EXCLUSIVELY in the field at the head of the table.

6. The signature must be handwritten, made in person by the holder of the Identity Card! and by no one else!!!

7. At the foot of the page, the full details of the “authorised person” are to be entered — that is, the identification details and signature of the volunteer collecting the signatures. The same requirements as above must be observed in this section too.

8. Volunteers (and only volunteers!!!) are asked to send, together with the “Lists of Supporters”, a copy of their own Identity Card. This precaution is necessary in order to prevent the infiltration of possible saboteurs who might attempt to submit lists with false signatures. NOTE: lists of signatures not accompanied by a photocopy of the identity document of the “authorised person” cannot be used (this applies only to Volunteers who have not already sent a photocopy of their identity document!).

9. You may be a volunteer either for yourself alone, or by gathering signatures only from your family and friends.

10. Send the lists to 7 Hristo Botev Blvd., 4th floor, flat 4, District 3, PO 030231, Bucharest, addressee: the Initiative Committee of the Constitution of Sovereignty.

Do you want the Constitution to establish the accountability of magistrates — judges and prosecutors to be first investigated by the judicial inspectorate (which will operate under the authority of the minister of justice) and tried by the Superior Council of the Magistracy, which will act as the tribunal in matters of disciplinary liability of judges and prosecutors, the Decisions of the Superior Council of the Magistracy in disciplinary matters being open to appeal before the High Court of Cassation and Justice (before which may likewise be challenged the decisions of the Superior Council of the Magistracy refusing to impose disciplinary sanctions on judges and prosecutors)?

215. 10 August 2024 — On changing the system

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the bill — see the page Constitution of Sovereignty.

Changing the keys of a computer will not improve, still less change, the operating system. Just as the most virtuoso pianist in the world, set before the keys of an untuned piano, will manage neither to perform a score coherently and harmoniously, nor to tune the piano “on the fly”.

That is why I have been and shall remain convinced that the solution for reforming a dysfunctional system, for correcting and improving it, is to “rewrite” the system itself, and not merely to change its “operators”.

Merely changing the “operators” of that perverted, virus-ridden system, one which has become non-functional and even harmful, cannot lead to the correction of the system but, most probably, to the perversion and “infection” of the operators, even when they are, ab initio, in good faith.

Without “rewriting the operating system”, or at least without setting clear, coherent objectives framed within a synthetic vision aimed at a deep reform of the State, any “change” is nothing other than what the Poet impeccably summed up in the lines “Other masks, the same play; other mouths, the same scale”…

That is why I personally believed that a reset and an “upgrade” of the “system” must be carried out from outside the system, directly by the beneficiaries of the “system” — by the citizens themselves! and only in their interest. And since the virus-ridden, non-functional “system”, the “untuned piano” of which I speak, is the Romanian State itself, I believed that the one who must reset the system, who must tune the piano by himself and for himself, is the Romanian citizen himself, that “ordinary citizen” in the street.

As an “ordinary citizen”, alongside you, “ordinary citizens”, I tried to do this three years ago with the #SovereigntyLaw (the moment when the concept of “sovereigntism” was born in Romania), two years ago with the #SolidarityLaw, and this year, after two and a half years of extensive discussions and public consultations, alongside some of the greatest legal specialists of our time, I put forward the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty.

For more than a month I have been speaking to you about this last one and I have explained as concisely as I could how the proposed amendments strengthen and guarantee the rights of the Romanian citizen, limit the power and influence of the intelligence services over society, increase the power of Parliament and diminish the power of the President, strengthen democracy and guarantee the independence of the judiciary, defend sovereignty and increase the national wealth.

And I invited you to become volunteers for it.

Of course, I understood that the System in operation, perverted and virus-ridden as it is, and its operators, perverted and infected in their turn, would react and reject as a foreign body any proposal for change, any attempt to tune a piano too worn to sound harmonious again. Which is exactly what happened. The #SovereigntyLaw was brutally thrown out in Parliament in 2022 by the #CoalitionOfBetrayal, and this year the Legislative Council showed its true colours and made a fool of itself with the opinion it gave on the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty. But all this I expected.

What I did not expect was to receive no support, not so much as a sign, from any of the great leaders who preach sovereigntism — enlightened leaders, indeed, whose names I am not even worthy to utter. For yes, I went and, humbly, I asked for their support and offered unconditionally the entire constitutional amendment project to each of them, asking nothing, absolutely nothing personal in return (and all of this I could prove, if it served any purpose, by the whole of the correspondence sent to them, correspondence which went unanswered).

In these circumstances, since fewer than 1,000 citizens have come forward as volunteers to date, and since they, in the time remaining, with all the goodwill and all the effort they might make, would be unable without the structures of large parties to gather at least 500,000 signatures in support of the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty project, there is nothing left but to thank all of you who were still able to hope and still wanted to believe that we can change this country for the better.

I thank especially you — you know who you are (and if you ever allow me, I shall name each of you in a future post) — who worked over these last two and a half years to give legal form to a dream, to a project for an ideal country. But also you who came forward as volunteers and took on an immense labour, as well as those who have already signed the forms supporting the constitutional amendment project.

We all know, we have been and are convinced, that what we did is the only way still to save this people, this country. The words may seem large, but they are not. The future will confirm it, and the fact that our projects remain as a witness through time in the Official Gazettes in which they were published will prove it: any work of restoring the Romanian State will without doubt follow this path and may, who knows?, even use the same words to clothe the only ideas and principles that can secure us continuity, prosperity and dignity as a nation.

But for us, most probably, it will no longer matter.

What does matter, however, is that in complete good faith and entirely disinterestedly we did together what we believed: together we worked for good and for truth. And for that, now, at the end of our labour, I thank you once again!

For the rest, to do what still had to be done… it is too late. Or too early!

Only for hoping and believing is it never too late! nor too early!

216. 18 August 2024 — On the Bulgarian example

On the Sovereignty Law: the full text of the bill — see the page Sovereignty Law.

The President of Bulgaria has promulgated a Law, published in the Official Gazette of Bulgaria and in force from 16.08.2024, which prohibits “propaganda, promotion or incitement” in the education system in respect of “ideas and views connected with non-traditional sexual orientation and/or gender identity other than the biological one”.

Progressives were scandalised… but they are glad that with us it could not be done.

Romanian conservatives look to the Bulgarians with longing. And they are frustrated that with us it is still not possible…

Yet few now remember that such legal provisions have already been published in the Official Gazette of Romania! As far back as 2021!!!

More precisely, through the Official Gazette of Romania no. 925/28.IX.2021, Article 6 provided for the amendment of Law no. 272/2004 on the protection and promotion of children’s rights, introducing express provisions concerning the defence of the physical and psychological integrity of the minor, in their capacity as a citizen holding rights. Thus, up to the age of 18, any form of intervention on the body of the minor aimed at altering the sexual identity acquired at birth was prohibited. At the same time, it was prohibited to make available to children any materials of a pornographic nature or promoting departure from gender identity, such materials being capable of causing psychological trauma that will mark the citizen’s entire life. In adopting these amendments, regard was had both to the best interests of the child and to the child’s right to decide and dispose knowingly of their own body once psychological maturity is reached, so that any premature influences on the normal physical and psychological development of the Romanian citizen should be removed. Not least, regard was had to the irreversible character of any premature gender alterations — alterations which will have a negative effect both on the development of the minor and, through their direct influence when carried out during minority, on the birth rate in Romania, an aspect which directly affects national sovereignty.

Certain acts committed against minors were even brought within the criminal sphere: in article 9, paragraph 2, art. 197 of the Criminal Code, headed “Ill-treatment of a minor”, is amended by the introduction of two new paragraphs, namely paragraphs 2 and 3. Paragraph 2 of article 197 criminalises “the act of causing a minor who has not reached the age of 18 to alter the biological sexual identity acquired at birth”, whether or not it achieved the outcome sought by the perpetrator. The reason for criminalising this act lies in the grave mental, psychological and behavioural disturbances such an act may cause in the minor, even if the minor cannot alone dispose of the actual, physical alteration of their sexual identity acquired at birth. Paragraph 3 introduces an aggravated form of the act provided for in paragraph 2, as introduced by the present bill, increasing by one third the penalty applied to the perpetrator if that person is a parent, guardian, teacher or professor, or if the act itself produced physical consequences on the minor, whatever the perpetrator’s capacity.

And matters went much further than the Bulgarians ever imagined: paragraph 4 of article 9 of the Law amends paragraph 4 of article 221 of the Criminal Code, raising from 13 to 14 the age from which the act of causing a minor to witness the commission of exhibitionist acts, or shows or performances in which sexual acts of any kind are committed, is punishable.

The act of making available to a minor materials of a pornographic nature, or with content explicitly describing sexuality, was likewise criminalised. Regard was had to the need to preserve the innocence and natural development of the minor in accordance with the moral norms generally accepted by society, up to an age at which the criminalised acts lose their dangerousness and are no longer apt to affect the minor’s psychological development.

Likewise brought within the sphere of criminal wrongdoing was the act of making available to a minor any materials of a pornographic nature, or with content explicitly describing sexuality, having regard to the best interests of the minor and to the negative impact of pornographic materials, or of content explicitly describing sexuality, on the psyche and development of minors at a tender age.

And no, that is not all! Romanians went even further in their audacity: in their “criminal recklessness towards political correctness”, the authors of these retrograde legal norms published in Official Gazette no. 531 of 7 June 2024 an amendment to the Constitution of Romania whereby, after paragraph (3) of article 22, paragraph (4) was introduced, expressly providing that “(4) The biological sexual identity of the child acquired at birth may not be altered before the age of 18.”

All this, and many other specific solutions to vital problems of today’s Romania, has already been published in the Official Gazette of Romania. But it was not adopted by Parliament nor promulgated by the President… for these were “only” two popular legislative initiatives, namely the #SovereigntyLaw and the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty. Both were ardently sabotaged by the overwhelming majority of Romania’s “sovereigntists”, and the first bill — the #SovereigntyLaw, the wellspring of “sovereigntism” in Romania — was furiously rejected in Parliament by the #CoalitionOfBetrayal PSD-PNL.

That is how history was written. God alone knows what is to come!

As for me, now a mere onlooker, my conscience is at peace and I consider that I did everything I could… and more than that!

And I venture to make only one humble suggestion to the great sovereigntist politicians whose names I am not even worthy to mention: do not be ashamed — copy! Copy from the Official Gazette of Romania no. 925/28.IX.2021 and from Official Gazette no. 531 of 7 June 2024!!!

And Romanians will be the better for it. And you, as illustrious politicians, will have the chance to enter history!

217. 26 August 2024 — “As I promised you the other day, before entering the break in my involvement in civic life…”

As I promised you in recent days, before entering the pause from involvement in public life that I promised myself, I submit to you for study and debate one more legislative proposal, aimed at amending Health Law no. 95/2006, more precisely as regards cases of malpractice and the liability of medical staff (articles 642 to 681).

I have called this legislative proposal the “George Law”, George being our friend who, as many of you know, has been bedridden for 3 years following the administration (contraindicated according to the manufacturer’s own leaflets!) of a “miracle treatment/vaccine” then in the experimental phase, without so much as a minimal prior examination or medical history being taken.

After the discussions and debates on the proposed text (which we shall hold here but also face to face), I shall make the resulting text available to my friend Antonio Andrușceac (and to any other member of Parliament) so that it may be placed on the agenda of Parliament in accordance with parliamentary procedure.

Here is the text I submit to you for study and debate:

George Law — Law on the protection of victims of malpractice:

Amendments and additions to Law 95/2006 — Title XV, Civil liability of medical staff and of the supplier of medical, sanitary and pharmaceutical products and services

1. Paragraph 5 of article 642 is amended and shall read as follows:

“5. The civil liability governed by this law does not preclude the engagement of criminal liability, if the act which caused the harm was brought about by acts or omissions committed with direct or indirect intent, or with advertent negligence, by the medical staff in breach of the laws, procedures and medical protocols, and constitutes an offence under the law.”

2. After paragraph 5 of article 642, paragraph 6 is added, reading as follows:

“6. Malpractice is presumed where the harm to the patient appears within 72 hours of the medical or medico-pharmaceutical acts giving rise to harm to the patient and a causal link has been established between the harm suffered and the medical or medico-pharmaceutical act. In such cases, the Commission for monitoring and professional competence for malpractice cases shall draw up a report within 7 days of being seised and shall adopt a decision on the case within a maximum of 30 days from the date of the referral, in accordance with the procedure laid down by article 670 and following of this law.”

3. After paragraph 1 of article 645, paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 are added, reading as follows:

“2. Public or private healthcare units are obliged to bear in full the costs of treatment, surgery and all other medical expenses of patients who are victims of medical malpractice and who suffer side effects and/or disability for a period longer than 20 days as a result of medical or medico-pharmaceutical acts administered by their medical staff. The patient’s prior informed consent does not exonerate from the liability governed by this paragraph. The liability of public or private healthcare units does not exonerate from liability the medical staff involved in the medical act, who shall be held jointly and severally liable.

3. The ministry of health is obliged to bear in full the costs of treatment, surgery and all other medical expenses of patients who suffer side effects and/or disability for a period longer than 20 days as a result of the administration of vaccines which are compulsory and/or recommended under the National Vaccination Programme, as well as of other vaccines compulsory or recommended in endemics or in periods of epidemic and pandemic. The patient’s prior informed consent does not exonerate from the liability governed by this paragraph. The units referred to in para. (1) of art. 644 are liable under civil law for the harm caused by the medical staff they employ, jointly and severally with them.

4. The provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 of this article apply to all patients, whether or not the medical or medico-pharmaceutical acts giving rise to harm to the patient were committed before the amendment or the entry into force of the law.”

4. Article 676 is amended and shall read as follows:

“The court competent to settle the disputes provided for in this law is the tribunal in whose territorial jurisdiction the patient who is the victim of the malpractice complained of has their domicile.”

I await your comments and additions!

Thank you in advance for your involvement!

218. 17 September 2024 — “Many said that the mass killing of the sheep of Romania was a deliberate act, unjustified…”

Many said that the mass killing of sheep in Romania was a deliberate, unjustified and purely self-destructive act. “Conspiracy theorists”…

Yet… the proposal to abolish the NATIONAL AGENCY FOR ANIMAL HUSBANDRY through Emergency Ordinance 85/2024 strengthens the suspicions of the many and largely confirms an apparent intention to destroy Romanian animal husbandry.

This Ordinance was censured and article 6, which provided for the abolition of the ANZ, was repealed in committee in the Senate… on paper!

But we must remain very attentive to the legislative process, for much can happen before it reaches the Chamber of Deputies, the decision-making chamber.

One question remains: HOW IS THE PROPOSAL TO ABOLISH THE NATIONAL AGENCY FOR ANIMAL HUSBANDRY JUSTIFIED?

This question must be answered by the minister of agriculture — Florin-Ionuț Barbu — but also, and above all, by Marcel Ciolacu, Prime Minister of Romania and candidate for the country’s Presidency.

P.S.: I set out below the manner in which I was “alerted” to this grave problem:

“Good evening. I am XXXXXXXXX and I spoke with you today, at church.

I am writing back to give you briefly some information.

Last year there appeared in the public domain, including in the press (see agrointeligenta), a proposed Government Decision reorganising the MADR by abolishing and reorganising 14 subordinate structures.

On 20 May this year there appeared on the MADR website a proposed Emergency Ordinance reorganising the MADR in which, of the 14 structures, only 6 remained.

On 28 June, Emergency Ordinance 85/2024 was published, which has virtually nothing in common with the proposal put out for public consultation.

By this Ordinance, the only institution in Romania responsible for preserving Romanian animal breeds (their recognition and their publication on the European Commission’s website), the National Agency for Animal Husbandry, is abolished (by total dissolution).

And this despite the numerous steps taken to make decision-makers aware of the gravity of the consequences of this normative act.

At present, bill 385 approving Emergency Ordinance 85 is before the agriculture committee of the Romanian Senate.

The trade union took part in the sitting and subsequently filed an amendment repealing the part of the Ordinance concerning the reorganisation of the MADR.

Emergency Ordinance 85 also contains a State aid scheme, besides the reorganisation part.

The senators support us in our efforts, but the decision-making chamber is the Chamber of Deputies.

I earnestly ask for your help. We have no political backing; we are relying on public opinion and on the good sense of those who still want a future for this country.”

219. 10 October 2024 — On the failure of the revision

On the Constitution of Sovereignty: the full text of the bill — see the page Constitution of Sovereignty.

The systemist Bulă Simion, saboteur of Romania’s sovereigntist projects, has accomplished his mission!

The reward? He will most probably reach the second round!

The politically correct and progressive press is exultant: the revision of the Constitution has failed! They say the reason is that “the Patriarchate did not give its blessing”…

False! It is not the Church that is to blame for the failure of the constitutional revision!

In reality, the constitutional reform project was sabotaged by the systemist Bulă Simion, initiator of a mini-project of constitutional revision whose sole purpose was in fact to smother the wide-ranging revision project called the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty, consultations on which had been begun more than a year before the launch of the “rival” project of hAUR (with a silent h)!

Bulă Simion did the same in sabotaging the #SovereigntyLaw project when, in the winter of 2021, he set about gathering “signatures for the suspension of Iohannis”!

The result? Iohannis was never suspended (for the simple reason that no procedure exists at constitutional level for gathering signatures to suspend the President!!!), but neither were the signatures for the #SovereigntyLaw gathered.

Bulă, on the other hand, built himself a mega database which he has used in every campaign.

Bulă Simion did the same with the 2 “rival” constitutional revision projects: he launched his own revision project exactly when we were finalising the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty.

Why? Because the wide-ranging revision of the Constitution proposed by civil society (together with those of the CpN) would have brought radical changes to society — changes which would at the very least have made impossible a decision as absurd as the “Șoșoacă Decision”!

The result? Neither of the two projects reached Parliament, to the delight of the progressives.

Besides, how can those at hAUR (with a silent h) now explain their failure to gather the 500,000 signatures for the revision of the Constitution, when they boast of having gathered hundreds of thousands of signatures every time in order to take part in each round of elections?

For a long time I believed that his chief “motor” was strictly personal: dividing the sovereigntists, copying and appropriating the programmes and projects he was incapable of initiating, with the sole aim of polishing his image as “leader” of the sovereigntist movement.

Now, after the Constitutional Court’s decision in the Șoșoacă case — a Decision whose first and only beneficiary is Bulă Simion — it becomes obvious that the man is not acting on his own. All the sabotage and all the obstacles placed in the way of genuinely sovereigntist projects had as their chief motor not his vanity and selfishness, but direct orders from his masters in the System, the very ones who helped him when needed, even from within the Constitutional Court!

He did the same with the dozens, indeed hundreds, of sincere people whom he marginalised within his own party or within the so-called “sovereigntist” wing, in order to promote strong-arm men of his own ethnic group. Here too the motive was not merely “selfish”! No! Those were the orders! The clans had to be harnessed to a political movement… and thus became direct contributors to the System and part of the System. And that is how stability is reinforced in our little country…

The conclusion is simple: Bulă Simion is 100% the System’s man, which is why he stands every chance of reaching the second round of the presidential election.

And that is how and why, after the latest mini-scandal in the party, the light of the stabor restored order and discipline in hAUR (with a silent h, yes?!).

All the players, whatever their rank or division, made their self-criticism and returned to operational teamwork, united in a single struggle.

Here is how the progressive press exults at the sovereigntists’ failure brought about by Bulă:

The #GeorgeLaw, the law I announced in the summer and named after our friend who is a victim of vaccination — a law for the protection of victims of malpractice — has been filed with the Chamber of Deputies by my friend Antonio Andrușceac, a member of Parliament like few others, who also had some suggestions and additions to the text we proposed!

The “George Law”, if and when it is voted by the two chambers of Parliament, will prevent the repetition of situations such as those of the plandemic and will ensure the protection and care of people in George’s situation — people struggling with incurable or degenerative illnesses as a result of the side effects caused by certain medical treatments, people in permanent need of extremely costly medical care.

For those who wonder and who ask me:

NO, I AM NOT STANDING FOR ANYTHING! So this law is not a means of running an electoral campaign for myself; it is the answer to a real need. I did only what had to be done, because it had to be done!

I thank my friend Antonio Andrușceac from the bottom of my heart for his contribution to the text of the law and, above all, for having been willing to file it with the Chamber of Deputies!!!

I hope that the other bills we have ready — among them the “LAW on the reform and demilitarisation of State bodies with responsibilities in the field of national security”, the “GREEN ROMANIA LAW” (a law strictly regulating clear-cutting of Romania’s forests), a “Bill amending and supplementing the Criminal Code”, a “Bill amending and supplementing Electoral Law no. 208 of 20 July 2015”, the “LAW OF SOLIDARITY AND OF THE TAXATION OF LARGE BUSINESSES AND FORTUNES — a BILL AMENDING THE FISCAL CODE, Law no. 227/2015”, and also a “BILL AMENDING THE ‘OFFSHORE LAW’ no. 256 of 12 November 2018” — will all share the same fate and be filed in Parliament before the end of this legislature. Any member of Parliament willing to file them is welcome to work with us!

I set out below the full text of the Bill, a Bill which I hope the future Parliament, as full as possible of true Romanians, will vote on as soon as possible!

for amending and supplementing Law no. 95/2006 on reform in the field of health and the Patients’ Rights Law no. 46/2003

The Parliament of Romania adopts this law

Art. I – Law no. 95/2006 on reform in the field of health, republished in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 652 of 28 August 2015, with subsequent amendments and additions, is amended and supplemented as follows:

1. In article 653, paragraph (5) is amended and shall read as follows:

“(5) The civil liability governed by this law does not preclude the engagement of criminal liability, if the act which caused the harm was brought about by acts or omissions committed with direct or indirect intent, or with advertent negligence, by the medical staff in breach of the laws, procedures and medical protocols, and constitutes an offence under the law.”

2. In article 653, after paragraph (5) a new paragraph, para. (6), is introduced, reading as follows:

“(6) Malpractice is presumed where the harm to the patient appears within 72 hours of the medical or medico-pharmaceutical acts giving rise to harm to the patient and there are reasonable grounds to suspect a causal link between the harm suffered and the medical or medico-pharmaceutical act. In such cases, the Commission for monitoring and professional competence for malpractice cases shall draw up a report within 7 days of being seised and shall adopt a decision on the case within a maximum of 30 days from the date of the referral, in accordance with the procedure laid down by article 679 and following of this law.”

3. In article 655, after paragraph (2) three new paragraphs, paras. (3) to (5), are introduced, reading as follows:

“(3) Public or private healthcare units are obliged to bear in full the costs of treatment, surgery and all other medical expenses of patients who are victims of medical malpractice and who suffer side effects or disability for a period longer than 20 days as a result of medical or medico-pharmaceutical acts administered by their medical staff. The patient’s prior informed consent does not exonerate from the liability governed by this paragraph. The liability of public or private healthcare units does not exonerate from liability the medical staff involved in the medical act, who shall be held jointly and severally liable.

The ministry of health is obliged to bear in full the costs of treatment, surgery and all other medical expenses of patients who suffer side effects or disability for a period longer than 20 days as a result of the administration of vaccines which are compulsory or recommended under the National Vaccination Programme, as well as of other vaccines compulsory or recommended in endemics or in periods of epidemic and pandemic. The patient’s prior informed consent does not exonerate from the liability governed by this paragraph. The units referred to in para. (1) of art. 644 are liable under civil law for the harm caused by the medical staff they employ, jointly and severally with them.

The provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 of this article apply to all patients who suffer harm as a result of medical or medico-pharmaceutical acts. The existence of the harm shall be established and certified on request, at any time, by the Commission for monitoring and professional competence for malpractice cases, irrespective of when the medical or medico-pharmaceutical act giving rise to the harm was carried out. The Commission’s Decision is subject to the procedure laid down by article 684 of this law.

4. Article 687 is amended and shall read as follows:

The court competent to settle the disputes provided for in this law is the tribunal — civil division — in whose territorial jurisdiction the patient who is the victim of the malpractice complained of has their domicile, or the tribunal — civil division — in whose territorial jurisdiction the malpractice complained of took place.”

5. After article 704 a new article, art. 704¹, is introduced, reading as follows:

Medicines or medical devices for which the manufacturer does not offer guarantees and demonstrably viable remedies against adverse effects may not be marketed or used, nor may such medical treatments be applied.

The marketing or use of medicines, vaccines, medical devices and other pharmaceutical products for which complete clinical trials have not been carried out according to the methodology laid down by Law is prohibited.”

6. In article 811, paragraph (1) is amended and shall read as follows:

Within the meaning of this chapter, advertising for medicines means information by direct contact (the “door-to-door” system), as well as promotion intended to stimulate the prescription, distribution, sale or consumption of medicines; advertising for medicines shall be carried out exclusively through:

— advertising for medicines addressed to persons qualified to prescribe or distribute medicines;

— visits by medical representatives to persons qualified to prescribe medicines;

Art. II – The Patients’ Rights Law no. 46 of 21 January 2003, published in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 51 of 29 January 2003, with subsequent amendments and additions, is amended and supplemented as follows:

1. Article 4 is amended and shall read as follows:

“(1) The patient has the right to be informed about the medical services available and about how to use them.

Medicines, medical devices and other therapeutic means may be administered and applied to Romanian citizens only after obtaining the patients’ written consent, following prior and mandatory information given on the basis of the leaflets provided by the manufacturer of the medicines proposed, medical emergencies excepted.”

2. After article 362 a new article, art. 363, is introduced, reading as follows:

No citizen may be discriminated against, positively or negatively, as a result of accepting or refusing a treatment or medical device.

221. 3 January 2025 — “The change we are all waiting for can only be brought about by a change of system,…”

The change we are all waiting for can come about only through a change of system, not merely through the change of a few men — this is now clearer than ever! We can no longer wait for the system to “reform itself”… it will not happen!

IT IS WE WHO MUST FORCE THE SYSTEM TO REFORM ITSELF!

And “changing the system” can be done only by changing the system’s “operating system”, that is, by a wide-ranging REVISION OF THE CONSTITUTION OF ROMANIA. But revision will be possible only if it is IMPOSED BY THE PEOPLE, by an immense number of citizens!

That is why I believe it is more important than ever to return to the project we have worked on together over the last 3 years, to the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty — a project for a deep revision of the Constitution which I propose we supplement, in the light of recent events, with 5 new articles:

“13. In article 37, after paragraph 2, paragraph 3 is added, reading as follows:

‘(3) The right to be elected of Romanian citizens who meet the conditions laid down in the preceding paragraphs may not be restricted except by a final criminal judgment.’”

“24. In Article 82, paragraph (1) is amended and shall read as follows:

‘(1) The result of the election for the office of President of Romania is validated by the High Court of Cassation and Justice.’”

“34. In article 118, after paragraph (5), paragraphs (6) and (7) are introduced, reading as follows:

‘(6) On the territory of Romania, command of Romanian or foreign armed forces stationed under the conditions of the preceding paragraph belongs exclusively to the Romanian army. The transfer of authority over the armed forces of Romania is prohibited.’”

“49. In article 146, letter f) is repealed.” (That is, the provision stating that the Constitutional Court “oversees the observance of the procedure for the election of the President of Romania and confirms the results of the ballot”.)

“51. In article 147, after paragraph (4), two new paragraphs are introduced, paragraphs (5) and (6), reading as follows:

(…) ‘(6) In cases of unconstitutionality found under article 146 letters a) to d), the law or the regulation shall be sent back for re-examination. If the law is adopted in the same form by a majority of at least two thirds of the members of each Chamber, the objection of unconstitutionality is set aside and promulgation becomes mandatory.’”

Let us not leave the fight against the System on the shoulders of a single person!

Do you have the courage to join the fight… if only with a signature?

222. 4 January 2025 — “We are in the midst of the personal dictatorship of the usurper Klaus Werner Iohannis, who at this m…”

We are in the midst of the personal dictatorship of the usurper Klaus Werner Iohannis, who is at this moment serving a presidential term unlimited in time.

How is this possible, when it was unimaginable a month ago???

The abuse of the System and the villainy of an aberrant Decision of the Constitutional Court.

But this abuse by the Constitutional Court and, by implication, the personal dictatorship of the usurper Iohannis are possible ONLY because the present Constitution left room to be forced, left room for interpretations which led to the establishment of a personal dictatorship.

THAT IS WHY THE CONSTITUTION MUST BE REVISED! URGENTLY!

How can we prevent in future the establishment of another personal dictatorship by some other future usurper like Iohannis?

By amending article 83 of the Constitution.

“Article 83 is amended and shall read as follows:

‘(1) The term of the President of Romania is 4 years and is exercised from the date of the oath, which shall take place in the same calendar year as the election of Parliament.’

The President of Romania exercises the office until the oath is taken by the newly elected President, without that term exceeding 4 calendar years.

The term of the President of Romania may not be extended for any reason. After the end of the President’s term, in the event of war, disaster or impossibility of holding the presidential election, the office of interim President shall be exercised, in order, by the president of the Senate or the president of the Chamber of Deputies, for a period of no more than 12 months, within which the new President of Romania must be elected.”

Any struggle waged at this moment against an abusive System and a personal dictatorship is meaningless unless its ultimate aim is not only to remove the state of illegality but also to prevent a future return to abuse and dictatorship.

The ultimate aim of our struggle must be to strengthen citizens’ rights and consolidate democracy.

And our aim can be achieved only by adopting the radical revision of the Constitution proposed by the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty project!

As I told you, the change we are all waiting for can come about only through a change of system, not merely through the change of a few men — this is now clearer than ever! We can no longer wait for the system to “reform itself”… it will not happen!

IT IS WE WHO MUST FORCE THE SYSTEM TO REFORM ITSELF!

223. 8 February 2025 — “Călin Georgescu spoke today about the turnover tax on the multinationals (in …”

Călin Georgescu spoke today about the turnover tax on multinationals (in fact, on the only large businesses in Romania!) as the sole way of stopping tax evasion — sorry, “tax optimisation” — by the large companies which make profits in Romania but export them in the form of fictitious expenses.

Good! As usual, we think alike, we feel alike!

In fact, as far back as 2023 I wrote a bill to that effect — THE SOLIDARITY LAW — some, I believe, remember that bill, which I spoke about at length at the time and which I made available to Diana Șoșoacă and also to those at AUR… yet no one was willing to carry THE SOLIDARITY LAW through to the plenary.

Why? I leave you to find the answer to that question!

I hope that after CG reaches Cotroceni this bill will reach Parliament… and that it will be adopted there; I want to believe it will become LAW.

I set out below the full text (and a link to the pdf version of the legislative proposal: https://t.me/DanMVChiticNecenzurat/3246)) of the SOLIDARITY LAW, which I make available to any member of Parliament interested in carrying it through to the plenary:

LAW ON THE TAXATION OF LARGE BUSINESSES AND FORTUNES

Law no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code and

on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters

Starting from the constitutional principle that Romania is a social state (Article 1 para. 3 of the Constitution) built on the solidarity of its citizens (Article 4 para. 1 of the Constitution),

bearing in mind the need to simplify and make more efficient the collection of taxes and duties, which is apt to increase predictability and also competitiveness in the economy,

having regard to the need to encourage the birth rate and to increase the degree of social protection which the state can afford indirectly through family members,

and also to the need to encourage work and reduce the share of social benefits,

I. amendment of Law 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code:

1. After article 18, articles 18¹ and 18² are introduced, reading as follows:

The exchange rate for determining the euro equivalent is that in force at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

2. Taxpayers who have achieved revenues exceeding the lei equivalent of 100,000,000 euros are liable to pay tax at the rate of 2% applied to the revenues recorded.

“Taxpayers who carry on activities in the nature of extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products and their derivatives and have annual revenues greater than 10,000,000 euros, including legal persons which achieve such revenues under an association contract for the activities referred to in this article, are liable to pay tax at the rate of 5% applied to the revenues recorded.””

2. Art. 101 paragraph 2 of Law 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code is amended and shall read as follows:

“(2) The tax is calculated by applying a rate of 10% to the monthly taxable pension income and, respectively, a rate of 90% to the monthly taxable income constituted by the part of the pension exceeding 11 gross minimum wages nationally.”

3. After TITLE X, TITLE X¹ is introduced, entitled “THE TAX ON LARGE FORTUNES”, reading as follows:

Wealth declarations are made in writing, on the declarant’s own responsibility, and contain the rights and obligations of the declarant, of the spouse, and of dependent children, in accordance with annex no. 1.”

4. Article 77 paragraph 2 subparagraph 3 is amended and shall read as follows:

For taxpayers earning gross monthly salary revenues over 20,000 lei, the personal deduction is not granted.”

amendment of LAW no. 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters:

Article 1 is amended and supplemented and shall read as follows:

“(1) This law lays down certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations of exploration, development and exploitation of petroleum deposits and of abandonment, as well as of the works/well works pertaining to petroleum operations, carried out by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters, in accordance with the provisions of the petroleum agreements concluded between the holders and the National Agency for Mineral Resources, hereinafter ANRM.

Where a holder is party to a petroleum agreement covering both onshore petroleum perimeters and offshore petroleum perimeters, or is the holder of one or more petroleum agreements covering both onshore and offshore petroleum perimeters, the provisions of this law apply only to petroleum operations carried out in respect of offshore petroleum perimeters.”

In article 2, letters m), n), o), p) and r) are repealed.

Article 18 is amended and shall read as follows:

“Art. 18. – Holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters in course of performance at the date of entry into force of this law shall be subject, throughout their duration, to the level of royalty, the percentage rates of petroleum royalty, the gross production thresholds pertaining to those rates and the specific tax regime applicable to exploration, development, exploitation and abandonment activities carried out under the laws in existence at the date of entry into force of this law.”

In article 19, after paragraph 11, paragraph (12) is introduced:

“(12) Investments taken into account in calculating the deduction from the tax on additional revenues are not taken into account in calculating the fiscal result of the periods for the payment of corporate tax, in the sense that no tax reductions/exemptions or cost deductions are accepted for them, they being regarded as non-deductible for the purposes of calculating corporate tax.”

Article 19 is amended and shall read as follows:

“Art. 19. – (1) Holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters, including their subsidiaries and/or those belonging to the same economic interest grouping which actually carry on both extraction activities and activities of selling the natural gas extracted from those perimeters, are required to calculate, declare and pay the tax on additional offshore revenues.

Additional revenue means the difference between the weighted average price of natural gas sold from own domestic production from offshore perimeters and the purchase price of natural gas from domestic production for household and non-household customers in 2012, namely 45.71 lei/MWh, multiplied by the volumes of gas sold from domestic production from offshore perimeters.

The tax on additional offshore revenues provided for in para. (1) is calculated by applying one or more calculation rates, as the case may be, to the additional revenues obtained from the sale of natural gas extracted from offshore perimeters, as determined in accordance with annex no. 2, from which tax the value of investments in the upstream segment is deducted. The tax on additional offshore revenues takes account of the reference price set by the ANRM for the calculation of royalties. Transactions carried out below the reference price are taxed at the reference price. The tax calculation rates are determined on the basis of the natural gas selling prices charged by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters, according to the price grid below, adjusted annually from 1 January 2019 by the annual consumer price index, as follows:

50% of the additional revenue for prices up to and including 85 lei/MWh;

15% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 85 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 100 lei/MWh;

30% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 100 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 115 lei/MWh;

35% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 115 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 130 lei/MWh;

40% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 130 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 145 lei/MWh;

50% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 145 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 160 lei/MWh;

55% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 160 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 175 lei/MWh;

60% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 175 lei/MWh and less than or equal to 190 lei/MWh;

70% of the additional revenues obtained from charging prices above 190 lei/MWh.

The maximum limit of the deduction for investments in the upstream segment may not exceed 30% of the total tax on additional offshore revenues.

The economic operators referred to in para. (1) shall calculate, declare and pay the additional offshore tax monthly, by the 25th of the month following that for which the tax is due.

The form and content of the declaration concerning the tax on additional offshore revenues shall be established by order of the president of the National Agency for Fiscal Administration, within 30 days of the date of entry into force of this law.

In so far as the application of these provisions requires the issuing of instructions concerning the tax on additional offshore revenues, these shall be issued by joint order of the minister of public finance and the minister of energy, with the opinion of the ANRM.

The sums owed by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore perimeters as tax on additional revenues shall be collected into a special account used for financing the establishment and extension of natural gas distribution networks and connections to the national gas transport system, as well as other investments established by Government decision. The allocation of the sums collected is made by Government decision. The collection of the tax on additional revenues is administered by the National Agency for Fiscal Administration, in accordance with Law no. 207/2015, as subsequently amended and supplemented.

The cumulative value of investments in the upstream segment, recorded in the accounts in accordance with the legal rules in force, from the entry into force of this law until the month for which the tax on additional offshore revenues is calculated, as well as the value of investments from the work programmes carried out and approved by the ANRM under the petroleum agreements, which were recorded in the accounts up to the date of entry into force of this law, shall be reduced monthly by the value of the investments in the upstream segment deducted from the tax on additional offshore revenues. The deductions apply until the cumulative value of investments in the upstream segment approved by the ANRM and recorded in the accounts in accordance with the laws in force is reached.

In the event of disposal of the investments for which the deduction provided for in paras. (3) and (4) was obtained, the deduction granted shall be subtracted from the cumulative value of investments in the upstream segment in proportion to the ratio between the value of the investments transferred and the value of the investments recorded in the upstream segment in the reference period in which it was granted.

Investments taken into account for the deduction from the tax on additional revenues may not be the subject of other deductions.”

Article 20 is amended and supplemented and shall read as follows:

“Art. 20. – By way of derogation from the provisions of art. 177 of the Electricity and Natural Gas Law no. 123/2012, as subsequently amended and supplemented, holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters, including their subsidiaries and/or those belonging to the same economic interest grouping, from the date of entry into force of this law, in so far as they contract the sale of natural gas on the wholesale market within a calendar year, are obliged to conclude, in the calendar year in which they deliver the natural gas, contracts on the centralised markets, transparently, publicly and without discrimination, in accordance with the rules issued by the National Energy Regulatory Authority, hereinafter ANRE, for the sale of a minimum quantity of natural gas which may not be less than that represented by a rate of 90% of the quantity of natural gas from own production contracted for delivery in the calendar year in question, as seller. The quantity of natural gas contracted on the centralised markets, transparently, publicly and without discrimination, is sold under a procedure approved by ANRE, so that buyers of natural gas cannot be made subject to a condition of purchasing a minimum quantity imposed by the seller.”

Article 21 is amended and supplemented and shall read as follows:

“Art. 21. – The rate provided for in art. 20 shall remain unchanged throughout the duration of the agreements.”

In Article 25, after letter m), letter n) is added, reading as follows:

“n) failure by holders of petroleum agreements to comply with the provisions of arts. 19 and 20 shall be sanctioned by a fine corresponding to 30% of the turnover of the year in which the breach was found.”

Article 33 is amended and shall read as follows:

“Art. 33. – From the date of entry into force of this law, in the case of offshore petroleum agreements the provisions of Government Ordinance no. 7/2013 on the establishment of the tax on additional revenues obtained as a result of the deregulation of prices in the natural gas sector, approved with amendments by Law no. 73/2018, as subsequently amended and supplemented, and those of Government Ordinance no. 6/2013 on the establishment of special measures for the taxation of the exploitation of natural resources other than natural gas, approved with amendments and additions by Law no. 261/2013, as subsequently amended, shall not apply.”

Article 34 is amended and shall read as follows:

“Art. 34. – For the purpose of applying the provisions of arts. 18, 19 and 21, the ANRM and the holders of petroleum agreements may conclude addenda to the petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters granted in concession at the date of entry into force of this law.”

Formula for calculating the tax on additional offshore revenues

Depending on the level of the weighted average price of natural gas sold from own domestic production from offshore perimeters, hereinafter PMPC, the following calculation formulas apply:

if the PMPC is less than or equal to 85 lei/MWh, adjusted by the CPI as the case may be, the total tax on additional offshore revenues due is calculated by the formula:

IVSC = ISO_85 = 0.50 * VS_85; VS_85 = (PMPC – PRC) * VGC; VID = min (VI; 0.3 * IVSC)

IVST – the total tax on additional offshore revenues due; IVSC – the total tax on additional offshore revenues calculated;

ISO_85 – the tax on additional offshore revenues due, calculated at a PMPC less than or equal to 85 lei/MWh;

VS_85 – the additional revenue from offshore perimeters, calculated at a PMPC less than or equal to 85 lei/MWh;

PMPC – the weighted average price of natural gas sold from own domestic production from offshore perimeters, or the reference price, as the case may be;

PRC – the purchase price of natural gas from domestic production for household and non-household customers in 2012, namely 45.71 lei/MWh, adjusted annually by the CPI rate from 1 January 2019;

VGC – the volumes of gas from domestic production from offshore perimeters sold;

CPI – the annual consumer price index of the previous year published by the National Institute of Statistics of Romania;

VID – the value of deductible investments in the upstream segment;

VI – the cumulative value of investments in the upstream segment as provided for in art. 19 para. (9), reduced monthly by the VID value deducted;

2. Where the PMPC is between 85 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh inclusive, adjusted by the CPI as the case may be, the total tax on additional offshore revenues due is calculated as follows:

IVSC = 0.5 * (85 - PRC) * VGC + ISO; ISO = CI * VS

ISO – the additional offshore tax calculated on the additional revenues from the sale of natural gas from charging PMPC prices between 85 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh inclusive, adjusted by the CPI as the case may be;

CI – the rate of taxation of additional revenues from the sale of natural gas [15% — under art. 19 para. (3) letter b)], applicable where PMPC prices between 85 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh inclusive are charged;

PB – the minimum base price of the corresponding calculation interval; thus, for PMPC prices between 85 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh inclusive it is 85 lei/MWh;

VS – the additional revenue from offshore perimeters, calculated on the sale of natural gas at PMPC prices between 85 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh inclusive;

3. Where the PMPC exceeds 100 lei/MWh, adjusted by the CPI as the case may be, the total tax on additional offshore revenues due is calculated as follows:

IVSC = 0.5 * (85 - PRC) * VGC + ISO; VID = min (VI; 0.5 * IVSC)

ISO – the sum of the additional offshore taxes, calculated for each price interval in accordance with art. 19 para. (3) letters b) to i), namely:

ISOi – is calculated according to the calculation formula in point 2, where the corresponding terms have the following meanings:

CI – the rate of taxation of additional revenues from the sale of natural gas, for each corresponding price interval in accordance with art. 19 para. (3) letters b) to i);

PB – the minimum base price of the corresponding calculation interval, adjusted annually from 1 January 2019 by the CPI;

VS – the additional revenue from offshore perimeters, calculated for each corresponding price interval.

Example of calculation: for the sale of a VGC volume of 1 MWh at a selling price of 110 lei/MWh, the total tax on additional offshore revenues due is calculated by applying the above formulas as follows:

IVST = IVSC – VID = 17.037 - 5.1111 = 11.9259 lei

IVSC = 0.5(85 - PRC)VGC + ISO = 0.5(85 - 45.71)1 + 5.25 = 17.037 lei

ISO = CI1 * VS1 + CI2 * VS2 = 0.15·15 + 0.3·10 = 5.25 lei

VID = 0.3·IVSC = 0.3·17.037 = 5.1111 lei, where:

CI1 = 0.15 – rate of taxation (15%) of additional offshore revenues from the sale of natural gas, applicable where prices between 85 lei/MWh and 100 lei/MWh inclusive are charged, under art. 19 para. (3) letter b);

CI2 = 0.3 – rate of taxation (30%) of additional offshore revenues from the sale of natural gas, applicable where prices between 100 lei/MWh and 115 lei/MWh inclusive are charged, under art. 19 para. (3) letter c);

VS1 = (100 - 85) * 1 = 15 lei, the additional revenue from offshore perimeters, calculated as the difference between 100 lei/MWh and 85 lei/MWh;

VS2 = (110 - 100) * 1 = 10 lei, the additional revenue from offshore perimeters, calculated as the difference between the PMPC (110 lei/MWh in the example given) and 100 lei/MWh (the minimum base price of the interval);”

224. 5 March 2025 — “Trump: “I WANT PEACE!” and “The Revolution of Common Sense cannot be stopped!” — the message of normal…”

Trump: “I WANT PEACE!” and “The Revolution of Common Sense cannot be stopped!” — the message of normality that is shaking the Western political world!

In Trump’s speech, in which the usual seasoning was not lacking — the frenetic applause of Republican conservatives and the jeers of the Democrat “resisters” — it was said from Washington to America and to the whole world that white has become white again and black black; that the daring has returned to say that a man is a man and a woman is a woman, that men must not compete against women; it was said that a country’s borders must be guarded, and that there cannot be 3.5 million people aged between 150 and 159 — “a far healthier country than I imagined”, as Trump put it — in a country where staggering sums have been invested to establish abnormality worldwide, such as 22 billion for “sedentary migrants” (!!!), 20 million for left-wing policies in Moldova, or tens of millions for research on transgender mice…

In that speech, the world was told that the aberration of “political correctness” and State policies against nature have come to an end!

And the “civilised world”, down to its last colonies, began to tremble when it heard the president of the country that has imposed democratic standards on the world for the past hundred years say unequivocally that “We shall restore REAL DEMOCRACY IN THE USA” and that “the days when unelected bureaucrats ruled us are over”! Systemists in every corner of the world, including in the colony called Romania, began to shake convulsively… an entire world is collapsing: the world of the Deep State, of the parallel state. Of course, they will say it will take time before the effects of the new policies of normality are implemented in their small countries too. They are wrong: they should look at the capitulation of Zelensky, frenetically supported by the decadent great EU, who capitulated within a single day of the historic moment — 03.03.2025 — when Trump halted the supply of arms that was “feeding” the criminal war in Ukraine.

All of it bore a single name: “THE GREAT LIBERATION OF AMERICA”, a liberation that heralds the world’s liberation from the “DOGMAS OF ABNORMALITY AND ANTI-TRADITION” generically called “political correctness”.

This “Great Liberation of America” comes at the same time as a “RECOVERY OF SOVEREIGNTY” through the “DEFENCE OF THE LIFE AND RIGHTS OF CITIZENS” and the establishment of a “FAIR JUSTICE”!!!

Yes, that is exactly what Trump said: a FAIR JUSTICE… can that be heard in Bucharest too, at the High Court? Or even at the Constitutional Court???

Trump says that policies to protect children and young people will be implemented in America, speaking of the need to reduce cancers and illnesses induced by substances, medical treatments and toxins in food — policies for which he has appointed Health Secretary Kennedy as the person responsible… in the same context, Trump mentioned a chilling statistic: whereas a few decades ago the incidence of autism was 1 in 10,000, today it is 1 in 36.

The protection of children from abuse committed against them through “toxic ideology in schools” — the prohibition on schools teaching curricula that promote transgenderism, and also the criminalisation of sex change in children (YES! exactly as was stipulated in the #SovereigntyLaw — a law I wrote and promoted and which was rejected by the former Parliament) — the REMOVAL OF WOKE POLICIES FROM SCHOOLS becoming the new State policy of the USA: “YOU ARE PERFECT AS GOD CREATED YOU”!

On foreign policy, besides the recovery of the Panama Canal and the annexation of Greenland — lines that seem to be cardinal directions of the new USA — TRUMP SPOKE ABOUT PEACE IN UKRAINE:

“We shall put an end to the bloody conflict in Ukraine (…): ‘do you want us to go on like this for another 5 years???’”

“Europe has spent more money buying Russian gas than on Ukraine’s defence…

This very day I received a letter from Zelensky saying he is ready to come to PEACE talks!”

“I appreciate having received that letter and at the same time I have spoken with Russia too and received strong signals that they are ready for peace as well. HOW WONDERFUL THAT WOULD BE!”

Yes, it would be wonderful if this speech were heard, listened to and understood in the rest of the “civilised world” too… so that we might hope it becomes a civilised world again!

225. 20 May 2025 — On Us and Them

On the Sovereignty Law: the full text of the bill — see the page Sovereignty Law.

On the System and the 2 sides of the same coin

And on the need for peace between “Us” and “Them”.

(Do not read the author’s name and try to read this text, written as concisely as possible, to the end.)

Us and Them, whoever We may be, whoever They may be — sovereigntists or progressives, left or right, red or blue, green or yellow. Once every 4 or 5 years We find ourselves facing Them in an absurd contest over slogans, over colours, in a bitter fight for nothing, for lies (which we know are lies), in which we are told it is essential that “ours should win” — an “ours” who is not ours, of whom no one knows where he came from, where he was “born” and “raised”. All we know is that “ours must win” so that we too may win. Although we never win anything (and this is proved every time), whether that “we” is Us or Them. All we do is pay for the whole game — for “ours” and for “theirs”, but above all for the “Referee”, always the same one — and we play by his rules. Some lose (nearly always the same ones), others win in this game, but all of us play by their rules and, above all, we pay them all (the winners, the losers, and above all the Referees). We pay them ever more dearly and with ever greater effort — we, and “Us”, and “Them”, whoever “Us” or “Them” may be!

In the “Grand Final” of 18 May, the “Referee” made both “Us” and “Them” choose a camp and a colour in a game organised according to the Referee’s rules. And one side of a coin… one of the sides was sovereigntist-nationalist. The other side was progressive-globalist. Except that these “sides”, bearing no resemblance to each other, were the sides of the same coin, “drawn”, “polished” and “shaped” by the one and only referee of the match. And never in the last 25 years has this been more obvious than in the “elections” of 2025. NEVER!

Concretely: we had to choose between the “sovereigntist-nationalist” George Simion and the “progressive-globalist” Nicușor Dan. Why did I use quotation marks? Because either candidate could easily have worn the other’s shirt and colour. If the “Referee” had so wished! If so it had been decided by the referee — one and the same as the candidates’ trainer (!!!) somewhere along the way of their formation. For both of them — Nicușor Dan and George Simion — were raised and trained in the same schools, by exactly the same mentors and trainers: traian băsescu (alias Petrov), Alina Mungiu-Pippidi, Monica Macovei, Laura Codruța Kövesi and, yes… the one and only, the inimitable Floriaaan Cooooldeeeaaa! Both were “around there”, both came from there! Hundreds of photographs, dozens of public and notorious stories tell us so beyond dispute… yet both “Us” and “Them” refused to believe them any longer and locked ourselves in a bitter struggle with an expected and predictable ending.

I know much, too much for my own health, about the path of our candidates… I know how Simion led the ultras groups at the pro-Roșia Montană demonstrations of 2013 (that is where I met him); I know how prominent members of the PMP were sent to Chișinău by băsescu to speak there with “his man”, that same George Simion, who lived and travelled in grand style on “nobody knows” what funds; and I also know how Coldea threatened UDMR members of Parliament with “I’ll set Simion on you”; I even know how another founding “father” of AUR was recruited by a well-known securist to whom he was informing on his “nest comrades” in Bacău; and above all I know all too well the confidence with which the jobless young GS spoke about AUR’s golden future (the party then only weeks old), with no career other than that of a terrace agitator — odd, is it not? And I know too how he, George Simion in person, at a negotiation in the autumn of 2020 asked me in front of 10 to 12 witnesses to stop criticising Laura Codruța Kövesi!!! And to stop mentioning Adrian Severin, to publicly disown him… And that I experienced personally, not by hearsay! Just as I personally experienced the constant sabotage of genuinely sovereigntist initiatives such as the #SovereigntyLaw or the #ConstitutionOfSovereignty by that same George Simion… I shall not go into detail now, it would take us too far. Though I could.

Just as I know, from one of his own “trainers”, about Nicușor’s past as an early informer, his grave problems with concentrating on a text — let us say — how he was pushed to set up the USB and then the USR… why certain construction groups nearly always found the Town Hall’s doors open… and all of it is connected with the same Mr Florian Coldea! I know a great deal, but I really do not think it healthy for me to say more about the future President in office of Romania… for the next 10 years.

Returning to the wider picture of the “playing field”: whereas until now the battle for the post of “Head of State” (a notion likewise invented by them) was fought between different gangs “of referees” from the same System, now, in 2025, it is astonishing how a single gang, FC’s gang, has managed to carry two of its men into the final! It even managed to persuade the Americans and the French each to back one of them! Astonishing! Brilliant, I swear!

The only one who could have spoiled the party of Coldea and the “Cluj group” would have been Crin Antonescu, backed by the other gang of systemists, the “Eduard Hellvig gang”, to name it generically; but so that Crin should have no chance of reaching the final, Maior’s godson was sent into the “qualifiers” (you don’t know who that is? Mr Ponta — sic!)… who let the “two brothers”, the two sides of the same coin, pull ahead into the final… it all fits together, does it not?

What is certain is that we have one certain winner — the Referee! And now we know who wears the referee’s kit, and we know too that the two finalists were merely the two sides of the same coin, drawn, polished and owned by one and the same “Referee”. And we understand as well why one side of the coin did everything possible to make the other side of the coin win — because that is what the referee wanted!

But above all we ought to understand one more thing, both “Us” and “Them”: in this game nobody wins — neither “Us” nor “Them” — only the Referee… that is, the System!

That is why I beg you all, both Us and Them: hate each other no longer, let yourselves be divided no longer by games that are not ours, do not tear each other’s eyes out over a future already drawn by others, by the same systemists… by the same Referee. Break your teeth no longer on counterfeit coins… try rather to bite the hand that throws them!

“I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit.”

As a confirmation of the above comes also the following item now circulating online:

“At this moment, GS is being pushed by Trump towards only two options: either he challenges the elections before the Constitutional Court and demands that Telegram be summoned to the case to produce the evidence it holds concerning France’s interference in the elections, or it will be shown that he was merely a pawn of the System — but even in that case, the USA will still never recognise ND’s legitimacy.”

226. 25 June 2025 — “Today Dumitru Coarnă tabled in Parliament “THE ACT OF NATIONAL SOLIDARITY — THE ACT ON THE TAXA…”

Today Dumitru Coarnă filed in Parliament the “NATIONAL SOLIDARITY LAW — LAW ON THE TAXATION OF LARGE BUSINESSES AND FORTUNES, A BILL AMENDING THE FISCAL CODE — Law no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code and LAW no. 256 of 12 November 2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters” — a bill I wrote more than two years ago, but which has only now become a pressing matter of the day.

I hope that members of Parliament from all parties will understand the necessity of this law and will vote it as a matter of urgency.

Here is what our bill provides:

The Law on national solidarity and the taxation of large businesses and fortunes makes specific amendments to Law 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code and to Law 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters, whose purpose is to increase budgetary revenues by taxing large taxpayers, both legal and natural persons, at fixed percentage rates set by thresholds of revenue and, respectively, of wealth held, in order to fund the tax deductions offered to taxpayers with several dependants. Thus:

I. Amendments to Law 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code:

Article 1 adds, after article 18 of the Fiscal Code, three new articles introducing a special taxation regime for certain categories of taxpayers who are legal persons with annual revenues over 10,000,000 euros. To that end, after article 18, articles 18¹, 18² and 18³ are introduced, governing the taxation regime, by thresholds of turnover and by the nature of the activity, of large corporate taxpayers in Romania. This measure is apt to encourage the activity of large taxpayers and to increase economic competitiveness. In essence, the rule introduces for large taxpayers turnover-tax thresholds similar to those already existing in Title III of the Fiscal Code, where the turnover-tax regime for Romanian micro-enterprises is laid down.

Starting from the success of the rule of low-rate turnover taxation — a major factor in the development of the national economy in recent years, and also a factor of attractiveness for many foreign economic operators who chose Romania precisely because of this method of taxation — the introduction by symmetry of the same method of taxation for large taxpayers is a measure to encourage their economic development and to attract large capital and commercial companies to our country, thus turning Romania into an important player in hosting and encouraging large business in Europe and in the world.

Likewise, it is evident that setting turnover-tax rates is apt to increase the predictability of fiscal rules for the economic operator and, at the same time, facilitates the determination and payment of taxes owed by large taxpayers to the Romanian State. The latter effect is intended to avoid possible errors arising when the taxpayer calculates taxable profit under the present rules, and to limit the interaction of economic operators with the agents of the Romanian tax authority during tax inspections — which is apt to make the work of the tax authority more efficient and to reduce the staff charged with the fiscal control of large taxpayers.

To that end, the introduction of art. 18¹ into the Fiscal Code brings three taxation thresholds for large taxpayers:

Paragraph 1 provides a rate of 1% applied to revenues recorded in each fiscal year for “taxpayers who have achieved revenues exceeding the lei equivalent of 10,000,000 euros (ten million euros)”; paragraph 2 introduces a rate of 2% applied to the revenues of taxpayers who have achieved revenues exceeding the lei equivalent of 100,000,000 euros (one hundred million euros); and paragraph 3 sets a rate of 3% of the revenues of taxpayers who have achieved revenues exceeding the lei equivalent of 1,000,000,000 euros (one billion euros). The exchange rate for determining the euro equivalent is that in force at the close of the financial year in which the revenues were recorded.

As may be seen, the introduction of taxation thresholds of 1% to 3% applied to the revenues of large taxpayers is similar and symmetrical to the taxation regime of micro-enterprises, which is apt to encourage large taxpayers in a manner similar and symmetrical to small entrepreneurs, thereby applying without discrimination one of the fiscal solutions most appreciated nationally and internationally.

Article 18² introduces into the Fiscal Code a first exception to the rule laid down in the preceding article for large taxpayers, introducing a new rate of 5% applied to the revenues recorded by large taxpayers who carry on activities in the nature of refining or marketing petroleum products and their derivatives and who have annual revenues greater than 10,000,000 euros. This increased rate is similar to the existing one governing the “Special regime for taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of night bars, night clubs, discotheques and casinos”, and takes into account, on the one hand, the statistically established exceptional situation whereby, whatever the difficulties faced by the national economy — pandemic, a state of war on the country’s borders — the profitability of undertakings operating in the fields mentioned above is growing; and, on the other hand, the success and proliferation of business in a field of activity already taxed at 5% of the revenues recorded annually.

Similarly and for the same reasons, Articles 18³ and 18⁴ introduce into the Fiscal Code exceptions similar to that provided for in art. 18² for taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the extraction of crude oil and natural gas, as well as for taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of the transport and distribution of electricity.

Likewise, art. 18⁵ introduces a further exception, applied this time to taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of financial intermediation, namely — without being limited to these — monetary intermediation activities, including activities carried out by banks, savings banks, credit cooperatives, or activities of the postal credit transfer system and postal activities of savings banks; the granting of credit for the purchase of housing by specialised institutions (housing banks); monetary activities by postal order (payment orders); or the activities of holding companies, mutual funds and other similar financial entities; financial leasing; or other lending activities, such as financial service activities relating primarily to the making of loans by institutions not involved in monetary intermediation, where the granting of credit may take a variety of forms, such as loans, mortgages, credit cards, etc.

This measure, similarly to that provided for in art. 18², took into account the recording by such taxpayers of significant increases in revenue in economically and socially difficult periods, together with an inexplicable simultaneous stagnation of profitability caused by rising expenses.

All these reasons justify the introduction of a special taxation threshold of 5% of the annual revenues obtained by large taxpayers carrying on activities in the fields mentioned above, namely for large taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of extraction, refining or marketing of petroleum products, as well as for large taxpayers carrying on activities in the nature of financial intermediation whose annual revenues exceed 10,000,000 euros.

Article 2 amends paragraph 2 of Law 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code and establishes a taxation of special pensions, introducing a taxation rate of 90% of the monthly taxable income constituted by the part of the pension exceeding 11 gross minimum wages nationally.

In setting this rate and this taxation threshold, account was taken of the fact that, under Law 153/2017, the President of Romania receives a legal allowance of 12 gross minimum wages nationally, and also of the fact that, as a matter of principle, no one should receive from the general consolidated budget of the State sums greater than those received by the highest dignitary of the Romanian State, the President of Romania.

For these reasons, and starting from this principle, a taxation rate of 90% was set for the monthly taxable income constituted by the part of the pension exceeding 11 gross minimum wages nationally; thus all sums derived from pensions exceeding 11 gross minimum wages nationally are taxed at 90%.

Article 3 introduces a new title into the Fiscal Code: after TITLE X, TITLE X¹ is introduced, entitled “THE TAX ON LARGE FORTUNES”, the rule introducing for the first time in Romania a tax owed by taxpayers who are natural persons holding wealth greater than 10,000,000 euros (ten million euros).

The rule introduces into Romanian taxation the notion of “large fortune” for the Romanian taxpayer who is a natural person, the lower threshold of large fortunes being set at ten million euros — unlike that laid down in other States of the European Union where, as in the case of France, the tax on large fortunes is owed once wealth of 1.2 million euros is exceeded.

In setting this high threshold for taxing large fortunes, account was taken of the need to increase the wealth of Romanian citizens and their ability to develop businesses so as to increase general well-being, but also of the obligation of those whose wealth has exceeded the threshold of 10,000,000 euros to contribute in a special, personal and direct manner to raising the general standard of living and to the development of the country in which they live and make their profits — this special contribution being made both in their personal interest and in the general interest.

TITLE X¹ introduces three taxation thresholds, as follows:

— a solidarity tax of 1% a year of the total value of the wealth for taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, together with the value of gains, movable assets and buildings in their patrimony as at 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 10,000,000 euros (ten million euros);

— a solidarity tax of 2% a year of the total value of the wealth for taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, together with the value of gains, movable assets and buildings in their patrimony as at 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 100,000,000 euros (one hundred million euros);

— a solidarity tax of 3% a year of the total value of the wealth for taxpayers who are natural persons and whose revenues, together with the value of gains, movable assets and buildings in their patrimony as at 31 December of the preceding year, exceed 1,000,000,000 euros (one billion euros).

The solidarity tax will be calculated on the whole of the declared wealth and will be owed at the level established by law until the wealth falls below the legal threshold set, so that no person whose wealth does not exceed 10,000,000 euros will be taxed, whatever wealth they may previously have held.

For the purpose of establishing the solidarity tax owed, natural persons whose estimated wealth exceeds 10,000,000 euros are required to draw up annually a wealth declaration as set out in Annex I, the annual wealth declaration for the last fiscal year having to be filed by 25 March inclusive of the following year.

The exchange rate for determining the euro equivalent of the wealth is that in force at the close of the financial year in which the revenues and gains were recorded.

The solidarity tax is the means by which the holders of large fortunes show their solidarity with their fellow citizens and, at the same time, it is the way in which they help the development of the State which created for them the conditions for significant material accumulation.

Article 4 amends subparagraph 3 of article 77 of the Fiscal Code and extends the scope of personal deductions for taxpayers with one or more dependants who earn revenues between the limit laid down in paragraph 2, namely 3,600 lei, and the limit of 25,000 lei, as follows:

“(i) for taxpayers with one dependant — 20% of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with two dependants — 30% of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with three dependants — 40% of the income tax due;

for taxpayers with four or more dependants — 50% of the income tax due.

For taxpayers earning gross monthly salary revenues over 25,000 lei, the personal deduction is not granted.”

The deductions are granted for any kind of revenue, no longer being addressed exclusively to salary income, so that as wide a range of taxpayers as possible may benefit from these fiscal facilities.

The purpose of the deductions from income tax is to support taxpayers who care for several people (children, parents, spouses) and, at the same time, to encourage active people with average incomes to have children, the State assuming indirectly (through the personal deductions governed by this law) and directly (through the statutory child allowances) part of the costs of raising children, as part of the national policy of increasing the birth rate.

This fiscal rule is apt to encourage work and constitutes a direct measure to halt demographic decline and to encourage the return home of Romanians from the diaspora.

Amendments to Law 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters

The energy sector, in particular that of offshore natural gas, is a central pillar of the national economy. The present context, marked by price fluctuations and by the need to ensure energy security, has raised the question of revising the legislative framework governing taxation in this field. To that end, the bill amending LAW no. 256/2018 makes a series of adjustments aimed at increasing taxation for holders of petroleum agreements as regards the operation of offshore petroleum perimeters. Increased taxation is often viewed with scepticism; in the present case, however, the arguments in favour are numerous and well founded.

First, fair and efficient taxation can contribute to the State budget, providing additional resources which can be invested in critical infrastructure, education or health. Moreover, in a sector as profitable as natural gas extraction, a higher tax can discourage speculation and encourage long-term investment, striking a balance between corporate profit and collective well-being.

To understand the necessity of the bill amending the legislation, it is essential to understand the formula for calculating the tax on additional offshore revenues. That formula is adjusted according to the weighted average price of natural gas sold (PMPC), taking into account also the consumer price index (CPI). Taxation thus adapts to market conditions, maintaining an equitable level of taxation correlated with economic realities.

This method of calculating taxes ensures a fair contribution by petroleum companies to the national budget, without discouraging investment in exploration and development. In addition, the emphasis is on fiscal transparency and predictability, giving operators the ability to plan their activities in the medium and long term.

Examining the calculation formula in detail, we see that it is structured on three levels of natural gas prices, each with a specific method of applying taxation. In the case of a PMPC less than or equal to 85 lei/MWh, a basic formula is used which includes the calculated additional revenue and the value of deductible investments. This approach encourages the reinvestment of profits and supports the development of the sector.

To illustrate how this mechanism works, let us take a gas price of 85 lei/MWh or less. The tax on additional offshore revenues (IVST) is calculated by subtracting the value of deductible investments (VID) from the total tax calculated (IVSC). When the price rises between 85 and 100 lei/MWh, the taxation rate becomes progressive, reflecting a greater contribution to the State budget while maintaining an incentive to invest.

When the weighted average price of gas exceeds the threshold of 100 lei/MWh, the calculation formula becomes still more complex, underlining the need to divide the additional revenues into price intervals. This means that for each price segment above 100 lei a different rate of taxation applies, thereby increasing the degree of fiscal contribution as market prices rise. This approach ensures fiscal equity and recognises market performance, while allowing holders of petroleum agreements to benefit from a stable and predictable fiscal framework.

Likewise, the value of deductible investments in the upstream segment is an important point, since it encourages reinvestment and the continued development of the infrastructure needed for the extraction and processing of natural gas. This policy not only stimulates economic growth but also helps create new jobs, thus contributing to reducing unemployment and to long-term economic prosperity. Another crucial aspect of the bill is the way it treats the cumulative values of investments. By allowing the monthly reduction of the value of deductible investments, a mechanism is created for recognising companies’ efforts to update and improve their operations. This can have a positive impact on energy efficiency and on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, aligning the offshore energy sector with the country’s sustainability and environmental objectives.

For these reasons, in the present economic and social context, global economic and ecological pressures require a reassessment of the way natural resources are exploited and, by implication, taxed. LAW no. 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of petroleum operations by holders of petroleum agreements concerning offshore petroleum perimeters stands at the centre of a lively debate, with solid arguments supporting the need to increase and to amend taxation.

The #NationalSolidarityLaw, the law taxing large fortunes and businesses, can bring at least 100 billion into the national budget and can save the country from the immense crisis it is in.

For two years I have been telling you about it… now the press has taken it up as well!

I thank Mr Dumitru Coarnă for filing it in Parliament and for giving Romania the chance to escape poverty.

We know already… they will do exactly and in good time whatever their puppeteers in Brussels and the local and global oligarchs decide…

If and when this last bill of mine too is rejected, I shall consider that I have done everything in my power for the country and… I shall bring my public activity definitively to an end.

“The bill ‘National Solidarity Law – Law on the taxation of large businesses and fortunes’ proposes several fiscal changes which could have a substantial budgetary impact. On the basis of public data and the measures set out in the document, we can make the following preliminary estimate of the impact on Romania’s budget:

It is proposed to introduce a progressive tax for companies with high annual revenues:

• 1% for revenues between 10 and 100 million euros;

• 2% for revenues between 100 million and 1 billion euros;

• 3% for revenues above 1 billion euros.

• According to ANAF data, in 2022 there were around 2,200 companies with revenues above 10 million euros, together accounting for more than 1,200 billion lei in annual revenues.

• Applying an average of 1.5% tax (a weighted estimate), this yields additional revenue of approximately:

1,200 × 1.5% = 18 billion lei a year

A new title is proposed in the Fiscal Code — “The tax on large fortunes” — applicable to natural persons with net wealth above certain thresholds:

• 1%, 2% and 3% according to the value of the wealth.

• According to a 2022 Credit Suisse report, Romania has some 25,000 people with wealth above 1 million USD (~5 million lei).

• If, hypothetically, 10,000 of them are taxed at an average of 1% of net wealth annually, and the average taxable wealth is 6 million lei:

10,000 × 6,000,000 × 1% = 600 million lei a year

• 10% on monthly taxable pension income;

• 90% on the part of the pension exceeding 11 gross minimum wages (11 × 3,700 lei = 40,700 lei/month in 2025).

• CNPP data indicate fewer than 1,000 pensioners with pensions above 30,000 lei/month.

• If 500 people exceed the ceiling and are additionally taxed by about 20,000 lei/month × 12 months × 90%:

500 × … × 90% = 108 million lei a year

4. Additional offshore revenues (amendment of Law 256/2018)

• A progressive taxation formula is introduced depending on the price of natural gas, and the deductibility of investments is limited.

• The bill provides no direct budgetary impact, but on the basis of sector data the estimated additional revenues may reach 2–4 billion lei a year, depending on the price of gas and the volume of sales.

5. Tax deductions for taxpayers with dependants

• A reduction of up to 50% in income tax for those with 4 or more dependants.

• If 100,000 taxpayers benefit from an average deduction of 2,500 lei a year:

100,000 × 2,500 = 250 million lei in lost revenue

✅ Estimated total net annual budgetary impact (positive):

Tax on large businesses +18 billion lei

Tax on large fortunes +0.6 billion lei

Tax on high pensions +0.1 billion lei

Additional offshore tax +3 billion lei

Loss from personal deductions –0.25 billion lei

⚠️ Important note: these estimates are indicative and based on public data/statistics from ANAF, CNPP and international sources. The actual impact depends on tax compliance, the structure of wealth, the price of gas and the effective application of the law. No official impact study is included in the legislative document.”

Here too is a budgetary justification sheet in official format, produced by the same ChatGPT:

“Here is a budgetary justification sheet in official format, drafted according to the model used by the Ministry of Public Finance, adapted for the bill on the National Solidarity Law – Law on the taxation of large businesses and fortunes.

1. Title of the draft normative act:

National Solidarity Law – Law on the taxation of large businesses and fortunes

(Bill amending and supplementing Law no. 227/2015 on the Fiscal Code and Law no. 256/2018 on certain measures necessary for the implementation of offshore petroleum operations)

Members of Parliament – Legislative initiative group

✅ Additional revenues to the general consolidated budget

✅ Tax deductions with a negative impact on revenues

✅ Changes to the taxation regime in the energy and financial sectors

5. Estimated impact on the general consolidated budget:

Proposed fiscal measure / Type of impact / Annual estimate* (million lei)

Tax on large businesses (1–3% of turnover) — Revenues — +18,000

Additional tax for petroleum and financial companies (5%) — Revenues — +3,000

Tax on large fortunes (1–3% a year of net wealth) — Revenues — +600

Tax on special pensions (90% of the amount exceeding 11 minimum wages) — Revenues — +100

Increased personal deductions for taxpayers with dependants — Fiscal expenditure — –250

* Estimates based on public data from ANAF, CNPP, INS, BNR and on international reports (Credit Suisse, Eurostat)

• Requires the updating of ANAF systems for the collection and verification of the tax on large fortunes.

• A precise definition of the mechanism for assessing the net wealth of natural persons is necessary.

• Requires the establishment of a mechanism for filing and checking the new annual wealth declarations.

• The additional offshore tax entails adjusting the reporting and verification mechanisms for holders of petroleum agreements.

7. Compatibility with international commitments:

✔ Consistent with the OECD principles on preventing base erosion (BEPS)

✔ Complies with Romania’s obligations under the European Green Deal on the energy transition

✔ Aligned with the social equity objectives of the 2030 Agenda (UN)

• Opinion of the Competition Council (if it is considered to be disguised State aid in certain industries)

The adoption of the bill is apt to generate an estimated budgetary surplus of more than 21 billion lei a year, reducing pressure on the budget deficit, contributing to fiscal equity and strengthening social solidarity. The impact is positive, significant and sustainable in the medium and long term.”

Let us see how the “experts” in Parliament and Government will contradict ChatGPT! ;)

229. 11 October 2025 — On the magical society

QUO VADIS? On the end of “democracy” and the dawn of the “magical society”. (4 — conclusions)

Starting from what has been set out above, we shall begin to understand better what has happened over the last 5 years, at least since the Covid years — the point from which it became evident (“crystal clear”, as the strategic partner says) that decisions are taken in spheres other than the three constitutionally recognised powers: legislative, judicial and executive, as they were theoretically divided by Aristotle and Montesquieu.

The reason is simple: the de facto “governors” of today’s world seem to have understood that, of all the attributes of power spoken of above, only one is not explicitly controlled or “possessed” under constitutional principles: KNOWLEDGE.

Thus, if AUTHORITY is the almost exclusive attribute of the Judicial power, the other attributes are shared by the other 2 powers of the modern state: FORCE and BUREAUCRACY — by the executive; CHARISMATIC POWER and (in part) BUREAUCRACY — by the legislative and by the people’s other “elected representatives” (from village mayors to the President of the Republic).

KNOWLEDGE, however, is not explicitly assumed by any of the powers, although for thousands of years “social influence flowed from control of the esoteric forms of knowledge”. This appears to have been understood by the oligarchic regime that controls Power worldwide, each oligarch/clan of oligarchs realising that holding financial power is not enough to make one the holder of absolute power!

And so we stand exactly at the threshold of the passage from oligarchy to tyranny — as Plato would say if he were rewriting the Republic today — but not by the (exclusive) force of arms: by the power of KNOWLEDGE.

There are three means by which the financial OLIGARCHY has already, at this moment, taken absolute control of KNOWLEDGE, and has thus seized “MAGICAL” control of power worldwide (or at least in what we have called the “Small World”, understood today as the “ANTI-BRICS world”):

CONTROL OF “INFORMATION” — through control and censorship of the online space, which in recent years has become the principal source of information and will in future be the sole source of information on the planet.

CONTROL OF “SCIENCE” — through the discretionary funding of research centres and, by implication, of the discoveries and innovations they produce.

CONTROL OF “INTELLIGENCE” — through the corruption and perversion of “NATURAL INTELLIGENCE” (see the capture of the “intellectual elites” over the last 35 years by Soros) and, more recently, through the invention and control of “ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE”.

If to all this we add the indissoluble (or at least indiscernible) link between high Finance and the secret services… we shall fully understand the “exercise of power” that was the “Covid pandemic”.

Do we remember? Then, in 2020, overnight, a “group of scientists” — somewhere, no one knows where — discovered the “killer virus” and the devastating effects it could have on man and even on mankind… They “sounded the alarm” and… POWER — the formal powers (executive, legislative and judicial) of every country and indeed of the whole planet… LOCKED UP MANKIND!!!

Subsequently, those same “men of science” — somewhere, no one knows where — also discovered overnight the “cure” for the “killer virus”… and POWER — the formal powers (executive, legislative and judicial) of every country — imposed in one form or another the administration of the cure on all the inhabitants of the planet…

The “COVID test” (this is the real “Covid test”!) confirmed it: the system works. The attribute of KNOWLEDGE, held in well-hidden “temples of science” and by quasi-anonymous “priests” (men of science and certain members of the secret services) — and therefore without any “popular” legitimacy — was able to dictate to the constitutional powers of the State (legislative, executive and judicial) what to do and how to do it — and that on a Global scale!!!

And if I had some reservations and wanted to believe (with all my might) that what happened in the “Covid years” was a historical accident, along came the social and political experiment called “THE ANNULMENT OF THE ELECTIONS OF 6 DECEMBER 2024” — when it was all confirmed once more, in the small social-experiment laboratory called Romania. Have we forgotten? Then, certain unknown persons — but holders of a KNOWLEDGE that cannot be doubted — said that the elections had been rigged by influencing the voting intentions of Romanians! So not only did these “KNOWERS” know what was happening “on the net” (which, of course, they control), but they also knew how Romanians would have voted had they not been influenced! And they know too that Romanians would certainly have voted differently had they not been influenced by the “disinformation campaign” of the ADVERSARY, of the Enemy (yes, “enemies” will appear constantly in the “official stories”, for, as in any myth, you need the forces of good and of evil)! And these “KNOWERS”, “masters of information”, unelected and indeed unknown to anyone, dictated — without a single concrete piece of evidence — to the formal powers of the state what to do. And “the powers of the state” did it! — this is the classic example of what we have called the “MAGICAL SOCIETY”.

YES, the dawn of the “MAGICAL SOCIETY” has broken: the exercise of EFFECTIVE POWER has passed from the HOLDERS OF APPARENT POWER (the representatives of the state) to the HOLDERS OF KNOWLEDGE (shall we call it A NEW OCCULT POWER?), who dictate indirectly and mediately (through the representatives of the state/states) the destinies of human society. Evidently, the phenomenon will grow and become ever more visible… and as everything becomes more “transparent”, the power of the “HOLDERS OF KNOWLEDGE” will also become generally accepted by the population! And this because “THEY KNOW!”, “THEY KNOW THE TRUTH!”. And because the HOLDERS OF KNOWLEDGE do not exercise power directly, THEY WILL BE LOVED… EVEN VENERATED! And thus will appear the “HIGH PRIESTS” who hold “KNOWLEDGE” and the “KEYS OF KNOWLEDGE” — INFORMATION, SCIENCE AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. And we already know at least 2 people who even now personify the attributes of “KNOWLEDGE” in the collective mind: Bill Gates and Elon Musk (each of course representing an opposing camp — good and bad being merely the label you attach according to the “ideological position” you occupy — both caught in a quasi-ritual and plainly theatrical struggle, as between the Deva (the shining one) and the Asura (the powerful spirit)…

Returning to the question at the beginning of this article — “WHO TAKES THE DECISIONS IN OUR WORLD?” — only one answer seems certain: THE DECISIONS ARE NOT TAKEN BY THOSE WHO APPEAR TO TAKE THEM. Decisions are no longer taken by the legislative power, nor by the executive, nor, most of the time, even by the judiciary.

THE DECISIONS come served up by “THOSE WHO KNOW” — be they secret services, men of science, or international institutions (all of which will in the very near future have a single common denominator: “ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE” and its “HIGH PRIESTS”)… Even in official speeches the verb is used almost every time impersonally: “it was necessary…”, “it was done…”. Thus “it was necessary” to buy billions’ worth of armaments, to give them to Ukraine, to raise taxes and duties… “it was necessary” — a formulation by which the formalised power of states escapes the “moral (and political) responsibility” for its acts by casting it upon the real holders of power: they “ONLY OBEYED ORDERS” from the one or those who hold power (as soldiers do on a battlefield)!

This attachment of the “charismatic heroes” of the classical (national) states (“elected and legitimated by the people”) to the “image” of “THOSE WHO HOLD KNOWLEDGE”, this abdication from the responsibility of governing by assigning it to the “CENTRES OF KNOWLEDGE” (whether “men of science” as in the “COVID years” or “intelligence services” as in the case of the annulment of the Romanian elections), shows in fact that there is, de facto, a delegation of power to the new centres of power, to the “HOLDERS OF KNOWLEDGE” — which indicates two things to us:

1. DEMOCRACY HAS BECOME PURELY FORMAL; OUR SOCIETY ALREADY HAS A “MAGICAL” CHARACTER, BEING RUN INFORMALLY AND OCCULTLY BY THE “CASTE OF THOSE WHO KNOW”;

2. HUMAN SOCIETY IS ALREADY UNDER A SUPRANATIONAL GOVERNANCE OF “THOSE WHO KNOW”, their power far exceeding the “visible” power of the formalised institutions which still retain a national and democratic component (however faint), such as the EU, the OSCE, the UN or even NATO.

Assuredly, this is only the beginning of this new order. We are only at the dawn of the MAGICAL SOCIETY run by “THOSE WHO KNOW”, by “THOSE WHO CONTROL KNOWLEDGE”, and the continuing development of “Artificial Intelligence” only strengthens and hastens the establishment of the absolute power of “THOSE WHO KNOW” (who still exercise it through “our elected representatives”, the “charismatic heroes” of the “functioning democracies”). How far? To the point where they will try to replace the Divine itself, God and His priests, with the new omniscient and omnipotent entity — Artificial Intelligence and its new “high priests”… and then, I believe, will be the end.
