Spokesman for the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (ALDE) MP Varujan Vosganian believes that Pro Romania, by refusing to support the Orban government being voted into office, no longer has the same political adversaries as ALDE, which provides "cover" to dismissed Prime Minister Viorica Dancila.
He asked Pro Romania and former national leader of the Social Democratic Party (PSD) Victor Ponta to detail the repeal of the flat income rate "In 2005 we introduced the flat tax; if Mr. Ponta regrets the prior model of progressive taxation under a PSD government, he should be reminded that the PSD progressive tax rates started at 18pct and ended at 40pct. We are asking Mr Ponta to tell us, starting from the current 10-percent flat income tax, what the socio-professional categories are on whose wages he would like to increase the current tax, and by how much. "
