President Nicușor Dan announced that Romania has definitively won the international arbitration case concerning Roșia Montană, in a decision that effectively closes the last extraordinary avenue of appeal against the Romanian state. According to the head of state, the ruling prevents the payment of damages estimated at 6.5 billion dollars.

Nicușor Dan described the mining project at Roșia Montană as “deeply illegal” and an attempt to irreparably damage the environment and national heritage, including the site listed as part of the UNESCO World Heritage. He linked the project to a major corruption scandal.

The president congratulated those who, over the years, supported efforts opposing the project. In his message, he emphasized that Roșia Montană represents more than an environmental issue, having become a symbol of civic mobilization and of civil society’s ability to block decisions with a major impact on Romania.

Context: Before the final victory at Roșia Montană, Nicușor Dan welcomed the legal and civic efforts surrounding the project

Before the international dispute was definitively concluded, President Nicușor Dan announced in Dublin that he had posthumously awarded lawyer Marius Liviu Harosa the National Order of “The Star of Romania,” with the rank of Knight. Nicușor Dan presented the lawyer’s contribution as recognition for defending Roșia Montană, stating that he had represented free of charge organizations that challenged the mining project for more than two decades and had been involved in dozens of lawsuits.

Along the same lines, Nicușor Dan publicly advocated for the international recognition of Roșia Montană to be accompanied by the preservation of the landscape and the promotion of its cultural heritage, also calling for support for centers that rehabilitate wildlife.
