The binge on public money is over and the motion will not make me stop, but continue even stronger, Economy Minister Claudiu Nssui said on Tuesday during the debate on the simple motion against him titled "Romania in agony, with Nasui at Economy", submitted by the Social Democratic Party (PSD) senators.
He analyzed, in turn, all the points in the motion, starting with the lack of a strategy to support the industry, noting that, for the first time, there exists the "most liberal and fair" strategy to support the whole economy, one of debureaucratization, facilitation of financing for all and reform of state-owned companies.
Claudiu Nasui also addressed the accusation that he would like to sell state-owned companies for nothing, pointing out that, "after decades of PSD blood-sucking", many companies ended up being worth little or even less because they ended up incurring record losses, out of 37 companies where the ministry is a significant shareholder, 28 having serious economic problems.
At the same time, Nasui described as "a big lie" the statement according to which StartUp Nation would no longer be financed and specified that this year there are 673 million lei for the payment of arrears.
The Senate rejected, on Tuesday, the simple motion titled "Romania in agony, with Nasui at Economy", with 55 votes 'in favour', 72 'against' and one abstention.
