- The summary initially stated that sources confirm «Sorin Grindeanu did not have discussions with President Nicușor Dan over the weekend of September 5-6, 2026.»; however, the claim remained UNVERIFIED, so the sentence was withdrawn.
- For the claim “Sorin Grindeanu did not have discussions with President Nicușor Dan over the weekend of September 5-6, 2026.” the sources contain passages on the same theme, but none explicitly resolve it; the claim remains unverified, and the found evidence has been attached for you to read.
