Romanian City Council Refuses to Remove Monument of Pro-Nazi Government Official

 

Finance Minister Mircea Vulcanescu

Bucharest’s city council refused to dismantle a bust honoring Mircea Vulcanescu, who served as a finance minister in the country’s pro-Nazi government during World War II. The city council voted down a resolution that would have removed the monument from Saint Stefan park in the Romanian capital.

The Elie Wiesel Institute for the Study of the Holocaust in Romania sees the refusal to adopt the motion as a violation of a law adopted by the Romanian parliament in 2002 and revised in 2015, which made glorifying figures guilty of crimes against humanity illegal.
