PNL Urges Parliamentarians to Reject No-Confidence Motion, Citing Destructive Political Games by PSD and AUR
Translated from Romanian, summarized and contextualized by DistantNews.
TLDR
- The National Liberal Party (PNL) of Romania criticizes the no-confidence motion against the Bolojan government, filed by PSD and AUR, calling it a destructive political game that harms Romania's stability and economy.
- PNL reaffirms its support for Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan, emphasizing the need for stability and European values, and urges parliamentarians to vote against the motion.
- The party accuses PSD and AUR of misleading their electorates and partners, and warns that their actions risk increased unemployment, economic decline, and higher borrowing costs.
The National Liberal Party (PNL) unequivocally condemns the no-confidence motion initiated by the Social Democratic Party (PSD) and the Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR). We view this move not as a constructive proposal for Romania's future, but as a blatant act of political demolition, strategically designed to undermine the progress and stability we are striving to achieve under Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan's leadership.
PSD ศi AUR au ales โo direcศie greศitฤ pentru Romรขniaโ prin depunerea moศiunii de cenzurฤ รฎmpotriva Guvernului Bolojan
Our alliance with PSD and AUR, as evidenced by this motion, represents a grave misstep, sending a deeply irresponsible signal to both the Romanian people and our international partners. This is not merely an attack on essential reforms aimed at curbing privileges and redirecting public funds away from special interest groups; it is a direct assault on our nation's political and economic stability. The consequences of such actions are dire, potentially leading to a surge in unemployment, economic contraction, and significantly higher interest rates on essential national borrowing, as already foreshadowed by market reactions.
PSD ศi AUR nu dau o loviturฤ gravฤ doar reformelor รฎmpotriva privilegiilor ศi robinetelor de bani publici deschise cฤtre grupurile de interese, ci ศi stabilitฤศii politice ศi economice .
We stand firm in our support for Prime Minister Bolojan, a leader committed to European and transatlantic values, who possesses the capability to see crucial reforms through to completion. Romania requires a government that prioritizes seriousness and stability over divisive political games. PNL will not engage in any further alliances with PSD and will vigorously defend the principles and reforms we have championed. We call upon all parliamentarians who genuinely believe in Romania's Euro-Atlantic trajectory to reject this motion and refuse to be manipulated by the political machinations of figures like Sorin Grindeanu. Your vote on this matter will define your commitment to Romania's future.
Romรขnia are nevoie de un guvern serios, condus de Premierul Ilie Bolojan
