Luca Niculescu has been appointed Prime Minister of Romania as part of a new attempt by Nicușor Dan to overcome the prolonged political crisis, but his mission to form a stable government in a divided parliament proves to be extremely difficult. #România #NicușorDan #LucaNiculescu (translated)

"Throughout this period, of a year and three or four months, there have been all sorts of excuses and scenarios in the minds of some, mainly to justify incompetence and certain disastrous results. There were scenarios of understandings and deals between PSD and Nicușor Dan. But these scenarios were actually justifications for them to hide their incompetence. PSD is extremely disappointed, and you know this; I don’t need to tell you, about the choice that Nicușor Dan made last night. I’m not saying it’s unconstitutional; I’m not saying it’s illegal. But we would have expected that after four right-wing prime ministers, there would be a chance for those who won the elections. That is, for us to be given this mandate. Justified, I requested it yesterday. I want to be very clear. In the discussions we had at Cotroceni, I requested the mandate of prime minister. The solution the president offered was to grant this mandate to Luca Niculescu. Ultimately, these decisions show that there was never any understanding between Nicușor Dan and PSD. These scenarios existed, I repeat, only in the sick mind of those who try to hide their incompetence through justifications of this type. The president of PSD, Sorin Grindeanu, stated on Tuesday that the appointment of Luca Niculescu for the position of prime minister 'is not unconstitutional', but he would have expected president Nicușor Dan to appoint him." #SorinGrindeanu #PSD #LucaNiculescu (translated)

"I wish the designated prime minister, Luca Niculescu, much success! Romania must come out well from this political crisis." The honorary advisor to the president, MEP Eugen Tomac, who was the first proposal for prime minister by Nicușor Dan, stated on Tuesday that Romania must come out well from this political crisis. #Romania #politica #LucaNiculescu (translated)

"PSD cannot give blank votes and cannot participate in a construction without solid foundations." Grindeanu said that, based on his interactions with Luca Niculescu, he has "only appreciative words" and described him as "a decent, professional, balanced person," who has demonstrated that he can manage difficult issues, such as Romania's accession to the OECD. #SiegfriedMureșan #SorinGrindeanu #GuvernRomânia (translated)

"You can't take a party seriously that changes its discourse from one day to the next, like in kindergarten."

Siegfried Mureșan criticizes Sorin Grindeanu for the inconsistency of his positions regarding the negotiations for the new Government, emphasizing that his statements are contradictory in relation to the support for the designated prime minister, Luca Niculescu. #SiegfriedMureșan #SorinGrindeanu #GuvernRomânia (translated)

"PSD will not vote for the continuation of austerity measures of the Bolojan type, repackaged differently. This would only bring us closer to early elections, that is our assessment. (...) I want to tell you that the mandate I asked from my colleagues was received unanimously. So, in the coming days, we will definitely have these discussions with Mr. Luca Niculescu." We remind you that Sorin Grindeanu stated on Tuesday that he is open to discussions with Luca Niculescu, whom he has known for some time and has a good opinion of, but this does not mean that PSD will automatically grant him support for the position of prime minister. #PSD #LucaNiculescu #Guvernare (translated)

"What do we need a technocratic government for, if Parliament ultimately overturns any decision? Who will this technocratic government negotiate political decisions with? Because otherwise, what we will see is that this technocratic government is in the window, so that people can throw tomatoes and eggs at them, while everyone else opposes while PSD and AUR make their deals in Parliament." USR President Dominic Fritz stated, on Digi24, that his party will not vote for the government led by Luca Niculescu if PSD is represented by ministers in the cabinet or if the decisions of a technocratic government are blocked by an AUR-PSD majority, in which case the government would be put "in the window, so that people can throw tomatoes and eggs at them." #DominicFritz #USRLucianNiculescu #GuvernTehnocrat (translated)
