The self-proclaimed king of the Roma कहा Tuesday he wants to give मैडोना a सोना plaque to thank the singer for criticizing discrimination against his people.
मैडोना performed in Bucharest in August as part of her “Sticky and Sweet” tour, and at the संगीत कार्यक्रम कहा she was “very sad” because of the “discrimination against Romas and Gypsies in general in eastern Europe”.
Self-declared king Florin Cioaba कहा the Roma wanted to दिखाना their appreciation for the US star’s gesture.
“Madonna deserves great credit. She drew the whole world’s attention to discrimination against the Roma,” Cioaba told journalists in the central Romanian town of Sibiu.
The plaque has been ordered from a jeweler in Italy and will be made from 24-carat gold, the Romanian news agency Mediafax reported.
Romania has one of Europe’s largest communities of Roma, an ethnic minority believed to originate from the Indian subcontinent often referred to as Gypsies.
Discrimination against the group in Romania continues: a survey last September found that seven out of 10 Romanians would not want a Roma to be part of their family, and मैडोना was jeered द्वारा the crowd when she made her remarks at the concert.
Last साल Amnesty International criticised the Romanian authorities’ lack of action to tackle discrimination against Roma, a problem it कहा was “widespread and deeply ingrained in (people’s) minds.”
