Breaking News: Vice Prime Minister Dragoș Anastasiu to Hold Press Conference at 5:00 PM Amid ANAF Bribery Scandal
Vice Prime Minister Dragoș Anastasiu is scheduled to hold a press conference today at 5:00 PM at Victoria Palace, following revelations that he paid bribes over an eight-year period to a tax inspector from Romania’s National Agency for Fiscal Administration (ANAF). The event will be streamed LIVE on the Romanian Government’s Facebook, YouTube, and the official state broadcast platform.
Spokesman Cristian Seidler confirmed Anastasiu was only a witness in the case, but added he must publicly explain the situation in detail.
Party leader George Simion called for Anastasiu’s immediate resignation, stating that “confirmed bribery cannot be compatible with high public office.”
Multiple PSD voices, including Senator Daniel Zamfir and Arad leader Mihai Fifor, demanded Anastasiu’s resignation, claiming the affair discredits the government’s reform agenda.
