Certej = Ro\u015fia Montan\u0103. Ask Iohannis to respect the law<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dear President-elect Klaus Iohannis,<\/p>\n

During the last weeks you said you were preparing to be a mediating and integrating president, a binding element between state and society. In the short time left before you take over this role de facto, your position as leader of PNL (the National Liberal Party) provides you with the opportunity to start applying the values and principles for which Romanians gave you a vote of confidence.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Two of these principles – transparency and responsibility at the level of central or local authorities – can be applied in the case of Certej as early as today, even by members of the party you are (still) leading.<\/p>\n

The cyanide mining project at Certej started to move forward, notwithstanding that<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

– It is similar to the Ro\u015fia Montan\u0103 project, and the permitting procedure was marked by countless controversies, abuses and suspicions of illegitimacies committed by state institutions since 1995.<\/p>\n

– The authorities acted in a manner which was non-transparent and clearly servile to the interests of Deva Gold SA, from the mining license transfer, the environmental impact assessment up to the issuance of the construction permit <\/a>for the site management works.
\n– Romanian society in general is against cyanide mining projects in our country (see Diaspora’s Letter<\/a> or The Cluj Declaration<\/a> ).<\/p>\n

Petru C\u00eempian, mayor of Certeju de Sus and a party colleague of yours, refuses to abide by the law and hinders civil society’s access to extremely important documents related to the permitting and commencement of the first cyanide project in our country.<\/p>\n

Mayor C\u00eempian’s attitude \u2013 with its lack of institutional transparency and the whitewashing of abuses – should be subject to political sanctions, being just as corrosive for the rule of law as corruption deeds and conflicts of interest. Mr. President-elect, we therefore request you to act according to the values and principles undertaken by you during the election campaign for compliance with laws in the case of Certej.<\/p>\n
