BREAKING Mai multe ONG-uri cer Comisiei Europene să sancționeze Primăria Oradea cu tăierea fondurilor UE pentru că refuză să permită organizarea marșului Oradea Pride
Several NGOs in Romania and Europe have urged the European Commission to intervene after Oradea's mayor banned the Oradea Pride march for the second consecutive year. They demand sanctions against the local government, including the suspension of EU funds, citing systematic violations of LGBTQIA+ rights. The letter highlights that the ban contradicts the legal notification submitted by organizers and emphasizes the need for the EU to ensure compliance with fundamental rights in local funding. The organizations call for concrete actions before the next planned march in 2026, stressing the importance of public demonstrations as a fundamental right.
