The Patriarchate announced that the pilgrimage to Saint Demetrius in Bucharest will take place from Sunday to Tuesday and that only believers with a Bucharest ID card will participate in the event. However, Prime Minister Ludovic Orban denied having discussed the matter with Patriarch Daniel. The Romanian Patriarchate spokesman, Vasile Bănescu, stated on Digi24 that the events caused by Saint Dimitrie in Bucharest received the approval of the institutions that have this task: DSP, Bucharest Gendarmerie, prefecture and city hall.
“I don’t think it is a radical denial, I think the prime minister wanted to convey that the decision to organize a public event as a very restricted pilgrimage and under extremely severe conditions does not belong to the Romanian government,” said Vasile Banescu. Prime Minister’s statements.
“It is an approach that the Patriarchate and the Archdiocese of Bucharest have adopted as every year to the institutions that have in their activity including the responsibility of granting approval for such an event – DSP, Bucharest Gendarmerie, Bucharest Prefecture and City Hall.
These are the institutions that have taken note of the argument and the conditions that the Patriarchate himself has thought about in the unusual context of special alert in which Bucharest finds itself, conditions that will be exemplary. We have a firm protocol with the Romanian Gendarmerie, I had working meetings with the representatives of the Romanian Gendarmerie.
There are approvals from all of these institutions.
These conditions are of unprecedented severity.
The church was with the authorities, an exemplary ally, “Vasile Bănescu explained to Digi24.
Orban: How do I approve it? Do you see any documents?
“I have a regular meeting with Patriarch Daniel, but no decision was made regarding St. Dumitru. It is not a meeting dedicated to the discussion about San Dumitru.
I told you that no decision was made. Where did you draw the conclusion from? Check what it is about. So far I have not reached any agreement.
It is a statement from the Patriarchate, not from the Government. So far no one has been able to submit the perfect solution, which is not strange. How do I approve? Do you see any documents? The government acts through decisions, ”said the prime minister.
