An incident involving the president of the republic and her friend occurred at the end of July, during which both were injured. The president admitted she was not wearing a seatbelt, expressing regret over this. The presidential office expressed surprise that footage of the accident became publicly available despite their request for access being denied due to confidentiality concerns related to ongoing legal proceedings. They stated they had requested the footage directly after the accident for internal procedures but were denied access by police and the specialized state prosecutor’s office, which explained that the footage would be provided only after the conclusion of the criminal investigation. The presidential office questioned how the footage could have become public before the investigation concluded, noting that neither the president nor the two drivers had been interviewed yet. Additionally, there were criticisms regarding the lack of action from the Prime Minister, who had called for a national security council meeting, which remained unanswered.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a balanced account of the situation, focusing on the procedural aspects of the legal investigation and the confusion surrounding the release of the footage. It does not take a clear ideological stance, instead emphasizing the institutional processes and the lack of transparency.
