Senator Gheorghe Ștefănache has left USR to join PNL, citing a mismatch between his values and the party's direction. He announced his decision in Parliament, increasing PNL's Senate group to 27 members. Previously, he led the USR Galați branch but resigned due to perceived inactivity within the local organization. His departure reflects a commitment to his personal values over party politics.
