The National Liberal Party [PNL, opposition] declares total war on Government Emergency Ordinance 114/2018 and will launch a campaign aimed at urging the Romanians to communicate to the MPs of the PSD-ALDE-UDMR ruling coalition their wish for them to vote against this "criminal normative act that endangers the development of Romania," Liberal leader Ludovic Orban said on Monday.
"I have made the decision to launch a campaign addressed to all Romanian citizens, a campaign that will be carried out by all possible means of communication, both through the media and online, also by directly campaigning to the citizens so as to determine them to address each PSD-ALDE-UDMR ruling coalition parliamentarian to communicate their wish for them to vote against Ordinance 114. The effects of Ordinance 114 are catastrophic and will make the lives of each Romanian citizen worse. Each citizen will be forced to pay higher local taxes, at the maximum ceiling level, as a result of Ordinance 114, without the increase in taxes and fees being based on decisions of local councils or county councils," Orban said at the end of the PNL's National Permanent Bureau meeting.
He added that, after the enforcement of Ordinance 114, each Romanian citizen will pay for electricity, gas and heating a higher price than the current one.
