PSD leader urges PNL and Ilie Bolojan to set aside politics for a stable government

Sorin Grindeanu called on the PNL and Ilie Bolojan to end partisan clashes and back a governing formula that would give Romania an executive with full powers.

On October 12, PSD president Sorin Grindeanu appealed to the National Liberal Party and its leader Ilie Bolojan to move beyond political disputes and support a coalition that would grant the executive full authority. He emphasized Romania's immediate need for a stable government to handle fiscal challenges and obtain external financing. Grindeanu criticized the PNL for prioritising electoral calculations over the nation's crisis, suggesting that their non-cooperation could deepen financial strain.

He offered to dispatch a team of PSD negotiators to craft a joint governing agenda that reflects ideas from both parties. The PSD stresses that forming a solid, transparent parliamentary majority is more important than short-term political gains.

Why it matters

A stable coalition could secure essential financing and prevent further economic instability in Romania.
