National tricolour bordered blue with a white fimbriation and surrounded (on all
four edges) with a golden fringe.

This is a new, post-Ceausescu flag. Adopted when? Earlier the chief of state
(then titled Chairman of Councils of State and of Ministers) used a similar flag
but with a red border instead of the blue and with three edges fringes. Even
before that royal standards were in use.

How can a flag with a golden fringe on the hoist side be either attached to a
halyard or nailed to a mast?

My guess is that this flag is meant to be hung vertically, either from a balcony
on which the President is standing/sitting, or as a vexillum. The upper fringe
would dangle in front of the flag so to speak.

I did not find any reference to the flag for this function before the 1990's, so
maybe it was a new development then? More info required.

~24:35, by Zeljko Heimer, based on Album des Pavillons (1990)
A white flag with the national flag in the canton. The canton relative ratio
is 4:5 (therefore "shorter" then the normal national flag). Obviously this was
in use in late 1980's and early 1990 before the adoption of the new elaborate
system, though the usage might have been more limited than "any member" of the
Government. It seems that this flag is the direct heir of the Communist period
defence minister flag, from which were removed the Communist symbols (emblem and
red star).
