The Bucharest Court of Appeal ruled in favor of companies contesting three highway contracts financed by SAFE loans, citing lack of transparency in the bidding process. These contracts were promoted by the Bolojan government as strategic projects for Moldova and Ukraine. Allegations of pressure from the government to dismiss complaints were made by anonymous members of the National Council for Contestation Resolution (CNSC), which the CNSC president denied. The court's recent decisions have annulled several contracts, prompting reevaluation of bids. The controversies surrounding these contracts include accusations of collusion and irregularities in the bidding process, particularly involving foreign firms with questionable backgrounds.
