Welcome back home!

The plane with the three Romanian journalists - Marie Jeanne Ion, Sorin Mişcoci & Ovidiu Ohanesian has landed a few minutes ago in Bucharest.

In the airport, family members, friends and colleagues wear special “Welcome back home” t-shirts.
Welcome back home!

Mr President Traian Basescu and the Prime Minister Calin Popescu Tariceanu welcomed them home on the airport.

The people who brought them home and accompanied them in the airplane wear special black 'caps' on their faces to protect their identity.

Here you can see a short clip with their first steps on the Romanian land after 56 days of terror.

Mohamed Munaf had been detained in Iraq by the US authorities.
The Romanian authorities freed the four kidnapped Romanian citizens and although Mohamed Munaf wanted to come back in Romania , the American authorities in Iraq exercised their right to detain Mr. Munaf (who is also an american and iraqian citizen). It seems that he either knows something or is involved in something.

Mr Munaf will be interrogated in Baghdad because it seems he has infos about some imminent threat for the American and Coalition forces in Iraq.

More than that, there can be a connection between Mr Omar Hayssam’s arrest in Romania and Mr. Munaf’s detention in Iraq. And the two of them may be somehow involved in the initial kidnapping of the three Romanian journalists.

Mr President Basescu told us yesterday that he will be able to tell us the whole story and present us the big picture in two weeks, because the case is not yet closed!

I can’t wait…

Marie Jeanne Ion, Sorin Mişcoci & Ovidiu Ohanesian will be in some sort of ‘quarantine’ as a standard procedure in such kidnapping cases.

We must appreciate and thank all the people involved in the negotiations and in this happy ending…especially the ‘invisible people’ and the people in the secret services…maybe we’ll find out more about the whole operation in 20-50 years… But that’s why they are called Secret services - because ‘it’s secret’ …

God Bless!

And

Welcome back home!

They are finally and officially free!

They are free!

The three Romanian journalists kidnapped in Iraq and their guide are free.

Starting today, Sunday May 22, 13:44 they are under the Romanian authoririties protection.

It is certain that there have been negotiations, but we still do not know what was the reason and 'the cause' of their freedom.

We are waiting for more details from the Presidency.

Was it a deal? An assault? Something else? Was it a political kidnapping, a 'classic' for the money kidnapping or something elese? What was the connection between Omar Haysam in Bucharest and the kidnappers if there was any connection? Still unanswered questions...

The Romanian Presidency was clear but very short and with no special details:

Cei trei cetăţeni români - Marie Jeanne Ion, Sorin Mişcoci şi Ovidiu Ohanesian - şi cetăţeanul american de origine irakiană Mohammad Munaf se află, de astăzi, 22 mai, începând cu ora 13.44, sub controlul autorităţilor române

The three Romanian citizens - Marie Jeanne Ion, Sorin Mişcoci şi Ovidiu Ohanesian – and the amerocan citizen with Iraqi an origins Mohammad Munaf are, starting today May 22, 13:44 hours, under the Romanian authorities control

God Bless!

We know that the four are well and unharmed and will be brought home as soon as possible!

I am happy for them and their families but still curious and excited to find the details, discover the big picture and understand the whole story.

It sure is a victory for the Romanian democracy, the Romanian Foreign Relations and the Romanian Foreign Policy and especially a great victory for our President Traian BASESCU.

But above all Marie Jeanne Ion, Sorin Mişcoci şi Ovidiu Ohanesian and Mohammad Munaf are alive and free and this is the great news we all have been expecting after a time with no news and no details about the kidnapping and after our president told us that we can expect anything and we must be ready for the worse.

God Bless!
Expect for more details!
