„Nu are nicio legătură cu realitatea”. Bolojan, nevoit să răspundă la o întrebare despre teoria conspirației cu „apa oprită de germani și austrieci”
Recent conspiracy theories claim that the low water level of the Danube is due to upstream countries hoarding water. Former police chief Cătălin Chivu suggested that this is not due to drought but rather manipulation by neighboring states. Premier Ilie Bolojan dismissed these claims, stating they have no basis in reality and are contradicted by precipitation data. Hungary is also facing energy challenges due to the Danube's low levels, affecting its nuclear power plant operations. Both countries are urging energy consumption reductions amid the crisis.
