Radu Mihaiu și Claudiu Manta, ceartă pe cine a propus legea
A heated debate occurred between USR Mayor Radu Mihaiu and PSD Deputy Claudiu Manta regarding the restructuring plan of the Oltenia Energy Complex. Manta accused USR and PNL of planning to close all coal plants by December 2025, a claim he attributed to a restructuring plan adopted in 2020-2021. He stated that PSD's Energy Minister Bogdan Ivan extended the closure deadline to 2029 after discussions with the European Commission. Mihaiu countered that the project was inherited from the previous government and emphasized the need for gas plants, which were not developed. Both sides exchanged accusations about the veracity of their claims regarding energy transition plans.
