Romanian Prima

local guide, having also US citizen, was supposedly kidnapped,

from the neo-communist influence of the former owners) which
have aired many gymnastics-related programs, like:
Silvia

many gymnastics news.
# If you are among Romanian gymnastics fans,
you may wish to send to those media organizations a support
message for the families and colleagues of the journalists:

According
to Romanian traditions, we pry for the release of the journalists
and we kept a lightened candle to support their safe return
home.
