Siegfried Mureșan, înainte de votul de învestitură: Instituția Parlamentului trebuie respectată
Designated Prime Minister Siegfried Mureșan announced he will seek a vote of confidence from Parliament despite opposition from PSD leader Sorin Grindeanu. The joint session of the Chamber of Deputies and Senate is set for 1 PM, requiring at least 233 votes for approval. Mureșan's coalition holds around 170 mandates, with some theoretical support but no guarantees. The proposed cabinet includes 16 ministries, with only half receiving favorable committee reviews. This marks the third attempt to establish a government after previous candidates failed due to lack of support. If rejected, President Nicușor Dan may appoint another candidate or dissolve Parliament for early elections, although he believes this is not a viable solution to the political crisis.
