Deputy PM Dan Barna maintains that the prime minister "has gratuitously generated a major political crisis, perfectly avoidable, for a mean ego victory."
He says the prime minister "knew perfectly well that he had loyal partners in USR PLUS." "He verified this tens of times over the past few months. He knew we are fair, he knew I, personally, as well as my colleagues, had always sought the path of a reasonable agreement. Florin Citu knew as well that I was a few offices or a phone call away and I was willing to discuss for days if needed to preserve the unity of the coalition, to stay focused on reforms, to continue an effort that we had started together," the Deputy PM shows.
Prime Minister Florin Citu on Wednesday decided to remove from office Health Minister Vlad Voiculescu.
