Acuze grave la ANM. Diana Buzoianu: Directoarea Elena Mateescu știa despre achiziții încă din 2025 • Newsweek România

Diana Buzoianu, the interim Minister of Environment, claims that Elena Mateescu, director of the National Meteorological Administration (ANM), was aware of irregularities in procurement as early as November 2025. Buzoianu stated that an anonymous email reported illegal direct purchases, to which Mateescu allegedly responded dismissively. This contradicts Mateescu's recent claims of ignorance until an internal audit in August 2026. Following integrity whistleblower reports, a control body was sent to ANM, leading to resignations in the procurement department. The audit revealed significant systemic issues, including extravagant purchases like perfumes and electronics, exceeding legal spending limits.
