Pîslaru acuză PSD și AUR că sabotează PNRR după votul din Senat privind decarbonizarea: România riscă blocarea cererilor de plată 5 și 6, în valoare de 5 miliarde de euro

Interim Minister Dragoș Pîslaru criticizes PSD and AUR for jeopardizing Romania's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) after Senate amendments hinder coal capacity closures. He warns of potential financial penalties and payment blockages totaling 5 billion euros. Pîslaru claims the amendments disrupt decarbonization commitments and could lead to reversibility issues with EU funds. He emphasizes that the government had already communicated with the European Commission regarding compliance challenges and had negotiated to mitigate penalties. The Senate's vote, which passed with overwhelming support, has raised concerns about the impact on future funding and reform progress.
