00:00Are Romanians really protesting against an anti-free speech law?

00:07Thousands joined a protest in Romania last week, organized by far-right MEP Claudio Terziou.

00:13Online, the protest was presented as a stand against a law allegedly designed to abolish free speech,

00:19with claims that the government could jail citizens for spreading hate online.

00:22But the reality is more complex.

00:24Protesters were calling for the repeal of what they are calling the Vexler Law,

00:28which is actually aimed at combating extremism.

00:31The law, proposed by MP Silvio Vexler, bans the glorification of fascist figures

00:35and introduces prison terms for promoting anti-Semitism, racism or xenophobia online.

00:42Terziou fears that the law will erase heroes and genuuses from Romania's national memory.

00:47By that, he is referring to iconic national figures such as the poet Mihai Eminescu.

00:52But some of Eminescu's writing include anti-Semitic and xenophobic passages.

00:56So is this law really a threat to the national memory of Romania?

01:00So there is nothing in the law that bans such discussions or the artistic use,

01:08the educational use, the use for this kind of public debates.

01:13You can still publish them or you can still talk about them, again, in a contextualized manner.

01:20Of course, we can also look at the opera from a historical context point of view,

01:27from the point of view of the times that they were being written.

01:32The law also bans awarding public honors to war criminals or leaders of fascist organizations.

01:38Nevertheless, before its adoption last December,

01:41President Nico Chordain called for the law to be re-examined,

01:44citing vague wording and potential for abuse.

01:47His objections were rejected by Parliament and the Constitutional Court,

01:52sparking a national debate about freedom of speech.
