Information on this subject is currently unavailable to the DIRB in Ottawa. However, the new Constitution passed in July 1994 states that "The state acknowledges and guarantees the right of all citizens to preserve, develop, and express their ethnic, cultural, linguistic, and religious identity." (Radio Romania 8 July 1994). For information on a decree issued on observance of religious law, please consult the attached FBIS-SOV-93-192.
This response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the DIRB within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
