Sociologul Mirel Palada și deputatul USR Iulian Lorincz, schimb dur de replici în platoul emisiunii „Subiectul Zilei”. „USR e un partid penal”
During a talk show, sociologist Mirel Palada criticized USR deputy Iulian Lorincz for labeling AUR as an extremist party, arguing that if a party leader is accused of wrongdoing, it reflects on the entire party. Lorincz defended his stance by differentiating between abuse of office and conflict of interest, while also condemning Diana Șoșoacă's visit to Russia, suggesting that a party's failure to distance itself from controversial figures indicates agreement with their views.
