Reacție la Pahonțu: Istoricul al cărui tată a fost omorât de Securitate și care a studiat Dosarul Revoluției spune că „Nu e niciun dubiu că Pahonțu a participat la reprimarea violentă, soldată cu 50 de morți și sute de răniți”
Historian Andrei Ursu asserts that Lucian Pahonțu played a significant role in the violent repression during the Romanian Revolution, leading a platoon that was involved in the crackdown on protesters. He emphasizes that Pahonțu was aware of his mission to suppress demonstrators, which resulted in numerous casualties. The events of December 21, 1989, marked a pivotal moment in the fall of Nicolae Ceaușescu's regime, with widespread public outrage following the violence. Despite Pahonțu's current position as head of the SPP, his past actions during the revolution raise questions about accountability and the legacy of the Securitate.
