Romania: Law enforcement officers to demonstrate in Bucharest, March 13
Police to protest at Ministry of Regional Development in Bucharest, Romania, from 11:00 March 13. Heightened security likely.
Law enforcement officers plan to protest at the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Administration on Strada Apolodor in Bucharest from 11:00 March 13. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand increased payment for work on weekly rest days and public holidays. Approximately 300 participants attended a related protest on March 12.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the demonstration site. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers tasked with monitoring the proceedings cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Administration. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance.
