The European Commission expects Romania to suggest new candidacy
for European Commissioner. Primarily the Prime Minister of Romania
CÄ~Clin Popescu-TÄ~C riceanu had proposed the candidacy of Varuzhan
Voskanyan – Head of the Armenian National Union of Armenia. However,
the latter had to withdraw his candidacy after separate episodes of
his biography were revealed. Thus, according to European mass media,
Voskanyan is suspected of serving as agent of the " Securitate"
special service and leading a rightist political party financed by
one of Romanian businessmen.
Voskanyan himself categorically refutes this kind of accusations.
President of the European Commission Jose Manuel Barosso supports
the candidacy of Romanian Justice Minister Monika Makovey.
