Senator Ruxandra Cibu Deaconu expressed sadness over the exclusion of Cisnădie's mayor, Mircea Orlățan, from USR. She emphasized her collaborative relationship with him and the importance of bipartisan cooperation among local leaders. The exclusion followed Orlățan's appointment of a former liberal mayor as public administrator, which caused tensions within USR. Orlățan defended his decision as administrative and plans to continue leading as an independent.
