Robert Sighiartău, a PNL deputy, advocates for a profound administrative-territorial reform in Romania, aiming to reduce the number of counties, communes, and cities. He agrees with PSD on the need for reform but criticizes them for using the topic to divert attention from a recent scandal. Sighiartău emphasizes that the current administrative organization, dating back to 1968, is outdated and must be reformed to address demographic and economic changes. He argues that the reform should focus on creating stronger administrative units capable of attracting investments and providing quality public services, rather than merely cutting budget costs. He insists that the reform must be based on objective criteria and not political interests, aiming for a more efficient state organization that serves citizens.
