Tarom declares to stop charter deportations (from Düsseldorf via Bucharest to Istanbul/ Beirut) from 26 June 2001 onwards. According to Tarom Manager Nikolai Demetriade this is an reaction to the protests of anti-deportation activists during the last weeks. The managers said to journalists that the company is very concerned about the image of the airline and so decided to stop the charter deportations. The company declared that in the future it will only transport refugees on normal flights and only if they do not object to their deportation.
