Romania: Unionized workers to demonstrate in Bucharest Dec. 12
Unionized healthcare workers to protest at Ministry of Health in Bucharest, Romania, 12:30-14:30 Dec. 12. Heightened security likely.
Unionized healthcare workers plan to protest at the Ministry of Health building (1-3 Cristian Popisteanu Street) in Bucharest 12:30-14:30 Dec. 12. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand higher salaries for state healthcare workers. It is unclear how many participants may attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the demonstration site. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Ministry of Health. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
