Fifor despre Fritz: „Simpla cetățenie nu te face român” - Intoarcerea unui discurs cu o istorie întunecată

The APCAL association strongly condemns Mihai-Viorel Fifor's racist and xenophobic remarks against Timișoara's mayor, Dominic Fritz. They argue that such rhetoric is incompatible with democratic values and echoes historical extremist ideologies. The association highlights the dangers of using ethnic origin as a basis for questioning loyalty and patriotism, drawing parallels with past antisemitic discourse. They emphasize the need to reject hate speech and xenophobia, asserting that Romania should not require proof of 'Romanian-ness' based on ethnicity. The statement calls for vigilance against the resurgence of such harmful ideologies in society.
