Controversies
On 11 January 2023, Babeș-Bolyai University claimed that the suspicions of plagiarism in the doctoral thesis of Interior Minister Lucian Bode "are confirmed in the vast majority" and requested the withdrawal of the book published on its basis. The position expressed by the university from Cluj-Napoca, where Lucian Bode defended a doctoral thesis in the field of energy security, comes after the ethics committee of the educational institution verified the minister’s work.[4]
