More precisely, according to a press release from REPER, the legislative proposal provides for the removal of criminal sanctions (prison, criminal fine) and their replacement with a contraventional sanction in the amount between 1000 and 3000 lei, for the possession of small amounts of cannabis for personal consumption.

Elena Udrea: We are indifferent when it comes to the rights of children, mothers and the traditional family

In this context, Elena Udrea is outraged by the fact that the problem of same-sex people and drugs is more important, which is why the “progressives” have begun to exert sustained pressure on the Parliament.

“An ECHR decision of the past few days says that Romania violates the rights of same-sex people to start a family. That’s all it took for the “progressives” who began to exert sustained pressure on the Parliament, requesting the amendment of the Civil Code to allow same-sex marriages.

All those who support this amendment invoke the obligation to comply with the ECHR Decision! Seriously??? But where were they when the European Parliament through Recommendations 12(2012), 5(2018) and 22(99) established that European countries must be concerned with respecting the rights of children to grow up in a family and to remain in permanent contact and quality with the parents who are convicted”, wrote Elena Udrea on social media.

Elena Udrea, about the dramas of tens of thousands of children and families whose mothers are in prison

Former minister Elena Udrea accuses the fact that no one talks about the tragedies of tens of thousands of children and families whose mothers are in prison.

“Accordingly, they recommended that states find alternative sentencing methods for mothers that avoid separating them from their minor children and sending them to prisons. There was at least a discussion about Romania’s obligation to put into practice this European policy to respect the ECHR and EUSEU, about the tragedies of tens of thousands of children and families whose mothers are in prison because Romania is the only country that does not apply these European rules ??

We care about the rights of homosexuals, the rights of drug users (see the legislative initiative of Dacian Cioloș for the decriminalization of drug use), but we are indifferent when it comes to the rights of children, mothers and the traditional family”, concluded the former minister in the message transmitted on Facebook.
