Fiul lui Adrian Păunescu taxează în versuri insistența Institutului de Investigare a Crimelor Comunismului de a retrage statuia tatălui său din București

Andrei Păunescu criticized the IICCMER's request to remove his father's monument, claiming it attacks national identity. He argues that the institute's stance reflects a fear of cultural roots. IICCMER maintains that honoring Adrian Păunescu is incompatible with respecting victims of communism, citing his role in promoting the regime's propaganda. The institute emphasizes that their request is not a critique of Păunescu's literary work but rather a reflection on the implications of public memorials.
