From May 1998 to April 2000, he was secretary general of the National Liberal Youth, serving as the organisation's president from that time until October 2002. From January 2001 to August 2002, he served on the PNL's permanent central bureau; he then advanced to the executive central bureau, where he remained until February 2005. That month, he returned to the permanent central bureau, serving until December. At that point, he was suspended from the PNL:〔 the party leadership, including Prime Minister Călin Popescu-Tăriceanu, viewed as unacceptable Boureanu's accusations that certain of his colleagues had conducted negotiations with the opposition Social Democratic Party.〔 Claudia Cristofan, ("Boureanu, suspendat din PNL. Cotroceniul pierde un 'agent'" ("Boureanu, Suspended from the PNL. Cotroceni Loses an 'Agent'") ), ''Gardianul'', 10 December 2005; accessed November 16, 2009〕 He remained suspended until September 2006, when he and fellow dissident member Raluca Turcan were ejected entirely, having been warned in July to cease making public statements against party decisions and having continued to do so.〔 ("Liberalii au mai pierdut doi parlamentari" ("The Liberals Have Lost Two More Parliamentarians") ), ''Cronica Română'', 2 October 2006; accessed November 16, 2009〕 He then joined the Liberal Democratic Party, serving as its vice president for political and international relations from March 2007 to February 2008, when the party merged with the Democratic Party to form the Democratic Liberal Party. Within the PD-L, he serves as a vice president and as president of its Argeş County chapter.〔 Meanwhile, he was first elected to the Chamber in 2004, serving on the industry and services committee, including as its vice president until September 2006.〔 (2004-2008 Profile at the Romanian Chamber of Deputies site ); accessed November 13, 2009〕 Re-elected in 2008,〔 (Election results ), alegeri.tv; accessed November 13, 2009〕 he served as vice president on the same committee, and was part of the Romanian Parliament's delegation to the Assembly of the Western European Union.〔 (2008- Profile at the Romanian Chamber of Deputies site ); accessed November 13, 2009〕 At the 2012 election, he ran for a seat centered around Huși, losing to a local farmer and political novice on a 62-23 margin.〔 Ionuţ Balaban, ("Vicepreşedintele PDL, Cristian Boureanu, bătut la alegerile parlamentare de un fermier" ("PDL Vice President Cristian Boureanu Defeated in Parliamentrary Elections by a Farmer") ), ''Adevărul'', 11 December 2012; accessed April 23, 2013〕 He subsequently criticized the Right Romania Alliance, blaming it for the scale of the PD-L's defeat.〔 Emma Toader, ("Boureanu, după eşecul de la alegeri: ARD a fost o mare prostie, iar prostia se plăteşte" ("Boureanu, after Elections Failure: ARD Was a Big Folly, and Folly Must Be Paid For") ), ''Gândul'', 10 December 2012; accessed April 23, 2013〕 Aside from his public feud with the PNL leadership, which involved acid criticism of Tăriceanu (whom he once called a "corrupt prime minister" and a "toxic product for the Romanian people"),〔 ("'Tăriceanu, un prim-ministru corupt'" ("'Tăriceanu, a Corrupt Prime Minister'") ), ''Evenimentul Zilei'', 31 March 2007; accessed November 16, 2009〕 Boureanu has been involved in other controversies as well. In May 2008, he was the subject of a criminal investigation for "abuse of office against the public interest" by the National Anticorruption Directorate for his role in signing a contract in 2000 between ''Loteria Română'' and a Greek firm that caused the former to incur losses of over €120 million.〔 George Lăcătuş, ("Nicolăescu şi Boureanu: duşmani politici, aliaţi în faţa procurorilor DNA" ("Nicolăescu and Boureanu: Political Enemies, Allies before DNA Prosecutors") ), ''Cotidianul'', 6 May 2008; accessed November 16, 2009〕 In summer 2009, he drew attention for his attempts to end the work of the parliamentary committee investigating abuses by Youth and Sport Minister and PD-L colleague Monica Iacob Ridzi. His verbal interventions were also noted, with one Social Democrat claiming he had insulted seven or eight of the committee's members;〔 ("Boureanu invocă verificările DNA în cazul Ridzi pentru încetarea activităţii comisiei parlamentare de anchetă" ("Boureanu Invokes DNA Verifications in Ridzi Case for Ending Activity of Parliamentary Enquiry Committee") ), ''Ziua'', 6 July 2009; accessed November 16, 2009〕〔 ("Comisia parlamentară 'Ridzi' s-a transformat în comisia insultelor lui Boureanu" ("Ridzi Parliamentary Committee Becomes Committee of Boureanu's Insults") ), ''Ziua'', 3 July 2009; accessed November 16, 2009〕 at one point, he addressed chairwoman Alina Gorghiu as "missie" and made mention of her "lovers".〔 Lucian Gheorghiu, ("Boureanu o ameninţă pe Alina Gorghiu că îi deconspiră amanţii" ("Boureanu Threatens Alina Gorghiu He Will Reveal Her Lovers") ), ''Cotidianul'', 1 July 2009; accessed November 16, 2009〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cristian Boureanu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
