Oana Gheorghiu critică proiectul AUR privind drapelul național. „O idee aberantă și stupidă”

Interim Vice Prime Minister Oana Gheorghiu criticized AUR's proposal requiring officials to kiss the national flag during ceremonies, calling it absurd and coercive. She argued that patriotism cannot be enforced through penalties and that true love for the country is demonstrated through daily service, not ceremonial gestures. The controversial bill includes fines for non-compliance and mandates a religious ritual during flag ceremonies, which Gheorghiu believes undermines genuine patriotism.
