Romanian Leader Purges Top Officials in Surprise Move

Nicolae Ceausescu ousted several key Communist leaders including Defense Minister Ion Ionita in a sudden government purge announced by Agerpres. Ionita, a 1965 power broker, was replaced by Chief of Staff Col. Gen. Ian Coman as Ceaușescu tightens grip and suppresses internal criticism.

Purge reshapes Romanian government and journalism bodies

Western diplomats report a purge of top officials including health minister Radu Paun and education minister designate Nicolae Niculescu Mizil. Gheorghe Cioara’s replacement was not announced as Suzana Gadea is named education minister while Nicolae Niculescu becomes health minister. The crackdown also abolishes the Union of Journalists and replaces it with a council under the union of typographical workers.
