Ciolacu, despre criza energetică: „Criză de penibilitate. Pentru prima oară în viaţă sunt de acord cu Băsescu” • Newsweek România

Marcel Ciolacu criticized the management of Romania's energy crisis, labeling it a 'crisis of absurdity.' He expressed agreement with Traian Băsescu's recent criticisms regarding energy solutions. Ciolacu highlighted issues such as selling energy at negative prices, allowing foreign investors to profit significantly. He also condemned the government's handling of interventions on the Danube, particularly the sinking of barges, which he believes has not yielded the desired results. Ciolacu warned that the changes in river currents would lead to additional costs for recovering the barges.
