President Klaus Iohannis laid a wreath on Wednesday in memory of all the young people who lost their lives in the devastating fire that occurred four years ago in the Colectiv Club.

RRA Reporter Oana Bâlă: Several candles were lit in front of the building where the huge fire took place. President Klaus Iohannis also lit a candle and kept a moment of silence.

Several massive protests took place in Bucharest following Colectiv tragedy, with protesters having demanding resignation of all officials that should have insured club safety and emergency exits.
