Prime Minister Florin Citu said on Wednesday night for the private TV broadcaster Digi 24 that his resignation from office would mean that he is "irresponsible", that he agrees to throw the "country in the air" on the eve of winter.

"That would mean that I am being irresponsible too. The world must know that when the Prime Minister leaves, the Government leaves. A resignation of the prime minister means that I agree to blow up the country, to be the irresponsible myself. I will never be irresponsible. PNL (National Liberal Party) is in government, the prime minister is of PNL, we are here to discuss, to find solutions. We will not do what the PSD (Social Democratic Party) has done, we will not throw the country in the air, we will not take down our own government. The PNL will never support a motion of no confidence against its own government, and I will do here exactly what I started. We promised to stabilize the economy last year, we stabilized the economy, this year we have economic growth. Yes, it is not seen in the pockets of the Romanians (...), it will be seen. We will have to continue to invest, we do not have another solution. (...) I am not irresponsible to leave Romania without a government on the brink of winter," Citu said when asked why he does not resign from his position, as requested by those from USR PLUS (Save Romania Coalition - Party of Liberty, Unity and Solidarity alliance), in order to continue the government in the coalition.
