Several thousands of Romanian citizens, amongst whom many public personalities, protested the handing over of Carol Park in Bucharest to the Orthodox Church by the Romanian government, with generous public funds as well, to build the Cathedral of National Redemption, "a symbol of 2000 years of Christian faith on Romanian soil".

Remus Cernea, Executive Director of the newly admitted IHEU Member Organisation Solidarity for Freedom of Conscience, Romania, writes about the successful campaign he organised which ensured that the park was left untouched.

Several thousands of Romanian citizens, amongst whom many public personalities, have protested the handing over of Carol Park in Bucharest to the Orthodox Church by the Romanian government. The Romanian Parliament even passed a law, in October 2004, which enjoined the central and local administration authorities to give to the Patriarchy of the Romanian Orthodox Church all support as well as public funds to build the Cathedral of National Redemption, "a symbol of 2000 years of Christian faith on Romanian soil".

Remus Cernea, Executive Director of the newly admitted IHEU Member Organisation Solidarity for Freedom of Conscience, Romania, writes about the successful campaign he organised in this ex-communist republic which, having joined NATO is now aspiring to EU membership.
