Geoana said the proposition to exclude Oprea from the party was submitted to the party’s Integrity Commission.

Prime Minister Emil Boc on Friday signed the decisions appointing Nicolae Moldovan, Mihai Viorel Fifor, Radu Stancu and Catalin Vrabie state secretaries in the Interior Ministry, at the proposal of the minister. Boc also signed a decision appointing Virgil Ardelean, nicknamed “The Fox” at the headship of the ministry’s General Division for Intelligence and Internal Protection.

Geoana reiterated his statement according to which Oprea acted unilaterally when he appointed people in positions within the ministry.

According to him, the decisions appointing the state secretaries will be canceled, and new propositions will be made following the meeting of a national executive committee of the Social Democratic Party.
