The Political Council of the PSD analyzed today the critical situation in which Romania has found itself in recent months and the solutions proposed by the designated Prime Minister, Luca Niculescu, through the government program. We started from a truth that all responsible parliamentary parties have supported in recent days, namely that saving the economy must take precedence over politics. Therefore, Romania urgently needs a functional government. Romania has vital economic urgencies, from ensuring funding for healthcare to paying pensions and salaries. The prolongation of the political crisis is the sure path to national bankruptcy. Analyses from the National Bank of Romania and international financial institutions show that Romania is heading at lightning speed toward the abyss. Maintaining the dismissed and interim Government of Bolojan would result in a bill that would kneel the last functional part of the economy," said the leader of the Social Democrats, Sorin Grindeanu, at the PSD headquarters, Agerpres reminds. #LucaNiculescu #Guvernare #PSD (translated)

The responsibility for the team with which he will govern belongs exclusively to the technocrat prime minister designated by the President of Romania. And this is also normal: he has the duty to form a cabinet and a majority for investiture. We will be in opposition and will manifest as such after the potential investiture. After all, we are also coming out of hypocrisy. Those who have brought down the government, directly and indirectly, will now assume governance and the solutions. We tried everything that could be done, but we did not have the necessary support. In a message published on Facebook, Ilie Bolojan claims that a vote for the new Cabinet could have political and image costs for PNL, given that it would allow PSD to return to power. #Politică #România #Guvern (translated)

Dominic Fritz wrote that there is a criminal case under investigation at the DNA that would involve several employees of the Timișoara City Hall, in connection with an accounting dispute with Colterm from five years ago. He stated that he had not been informed about the case and had no standing in it, but suspected that the accusation would target an alleged abuse of office for obtaining benefits for the Municipality of Timișoara. According to Fritz, no amounts of money had been misappropriated. Fritz reported that, in the winter of 2021/2022, the Romanian Government allocated 67 million lei to the city of Timișoara for the current payments of the heating system, and the City Hall transferred the amount to Colterm. He stated that the Ministry of Finance had communicated in writing that the money could only be transferred to the subsidy account, while Colterm wanted to receive it as an additional transfer, outside the existing contract. Fritz argued that the City Hall acted in accordance with the law and that other city halls that acted similarly did not have problems with the DNA. The mayor stated that the case, if it exists, would be "ridiculous and outrageous" and criticized the DNA for investigating officials who, in his opinion, had done their jobs in good faith. He argued that the fear of criminal cases could lead officials to leave issues unresolved. Fritz also mentioned that since he became mayor, Colterm had received over 1 billion lei from the Timișoara budget in the form of subsidies, and the municipality invested hundreds of millions of lei in rehabilitating the network. He noted the non-payment of certificates in 2020, before he became mayor, Colterm entering insolvency, and the interruption of service for five days in October 2021, adding that he was proud of the solutions found to maintain and save the heating system. #Corupție #Timișoara #DNA (translated)
