„Șocant și revoltător”. Critici după ce ministrul Culturii a stabilit ca Oficiul de Film să gestioneze prezența României la cel mai mare Târg de Carte

The decision by Romania's interim Minister of Culture to appoint the Film Office as the manager for the country's participation at the Frankfurt Book Fair in 2028 has sparked outrage among writers and cultural figures. Critics argue that this choice undermines the literary significance of the event, as the Film Office primarily focuses on film-related initiatives. Prominent voices in the literary community, including poet Radu Vancu and writer Varujan Vosganian, have condemned the move, suggesting it could lead to a significant cultural embarrassment for Romania. Minister Demeter András István defended the decision, stating that other cultural institutions declined the role, and emphasized the need for a flexible organization to manage this important cultural investment.
