Abstract:

The largest protests in Romania since 1989 have been caused by the interpretation of two emergency government ordinances as an attempt to paralyse the fight against corruption, which has been effective for a few years now. Although the government withdrew the projects, the demonstrations have continued, with protesters seeing it as just a temporary concession. They fear the ruling parties, which have politicians threatened with criminal trials, will undertake a new attempt to change the country’s anti-corruption laws. The credibility of Romania as an international partner could be undermined by a deterioration of its image in this respect and that also would have negative repercussions for Poland.
