Romanian EU commissioner nominee denies collaborating with Securitate
Bucharest, 27 October: Liberal Senator Varujan Vosganian, who was
nominated for European commissioner from Romania, on Friday [27
October] rejected accusations of having collaborated with the
Securitate, the communist-era secret police. "I never had any kind of
collaboration with any Securitate bodies," said Vosganian, adding
there is no document to prove the accusations levelled against him.
He said the whole affair was a manipulation stirred amid his having
been nominated for European commissioner.
Vosganian stressed that his post-1990 incomes came from the senator's
pay, the Armenians' Union, the Romanian Authors' Union where he is a
vice-president, and from the two micro-enterprises where he is a
major shareholder.
