Officially from CNAS, explanations about the statement given by Crin Antonescu to Security: No CNSAS has restricted access to that note, but the law does not allow it, at this stage

The National Council for the Study of the Security Archives has not restricted access to the note written by Crin Antonescu to communist security, but “the law does not allow it, at this stage,” explains the historian Mihai Demetriade, who is also a higher counselor within the Research Directorate of CNSAS.

“Crin Antonescu was summoned (attention! He was summoned!), As anyone could be summoned before 1989, at the headquarters of an inspectorate of the Ministry of Interior or at the headquarters of any authority. The convocations did not mention the reason, nor that it was done at the security headquarters. will (…).

“Antonescu was called, along with other people (!), For clarifications in the case of a friend who had tried to flee the country. Man (Crin Antonescu), in his statement, attention, does not say anything negative or incriminating about his friend.

In his post, the historian accuses the fact that “someone from the CNSAS College, politically interested, intentionally manipulated the press (..), on the predictable fund of the ignorance of the law, of the judicial practice and the repressive archives.”

Mihai Demetriade also speaks of the “second lie”, the subject of the note given by Crin Antonescu to Security.

“The second lie (…), provided by someone from the CNSAS College, is that the institution (CNSAS) would have restricted access to the note of finding. It is false, a scandalous lie. CNSAS restricted nothing. The notes of finding have a secret service. They are not public, according to the law. The notes of finding become consultible, ”explains the historian.

According to him, “not CNSAS has restricted access to the respective note, but the law does not allow it, at this stage. Moreover: it is presumed and suggested that behind the” restriction “it resides an occult interest: they tried from CNSAS to wash Antonescu. No one tried nothing.

“Antonescu's declaration of 1988 not only is benign, neutral and does not involve his friend at all, but he is also favorable, protective,” says the historian.

The candidate of the governing coalition in the presidential elections, Crin Antonescu, publicly asked the Council for the Study of the Security Archives to publish the statement he made in the Security, in 1987. “I was never, in any form, the security collaborator, let alone in the form of political police,” said Crin Antonescu.

He made these statements in a press conference sustained after CNSAS recorded, in the official certificate in which he transmits that he cannot be assigned the quality of worker or collaborator of the Security, that he gave a security statement about a colleague.

“I did not have any connection with the Security except the quality to be pursued, in case I will refer immediately, with all the details I know,” said Antonescu.

“I, in relation to this statement that he called to the Security, as a pursuit, and in which I did not give any information against this man, I only ask this statement to be made public, I have absolutely nothing to hide, I was a victim of the Security, no one collaborator, so much of a security collaborator as a political police, Once again, I ask the CNSAS to publish this statement, I have no other form of collaboration with the Security, this is not a form of collaboration with the Security. I have never provided anyone, no security, information to harm someone, more than, I covered my friend, I could have been accused of concealing if the old security had come back. I have absolutely nothing to hide, I am a man who constantly had the past in this aspect and under others in sight, ”he stressed.

Also, the candidate of the governing coalition for the supreme position in the state insistently asked for the publication of the document.

The name of Crin Antonescu's friend from the 1980s is Stefan Costache. He explained, live on Antena 3, that he is in Canada, where he fled. The first time he had been caught by the Security and, according to Costache, Antonescu did not betray him.

“If Crin had betrayed me, I couldn't run out of the country.

Before this second departure, Costache said, “Crin Antonescu was the only person I trusted to get rid of before leaving and I asked him to announce my family, my parents, after three weeks after I left. Because from my information I knew that if this time I got my trip and I was able to get it.
