MP Alexandru Muraru, deputy chairman of the National Liberal Party (PNL), minor at rule, said on Tuesday that there is a majority current in Parliament that rejects any idea of an alliance or joint lists with the Social Democratic Party (PSD).
"I saw among those, perhaps over 20 colleagues who spoke last night, that there is a majority current inside PNL that completely disapproves of and rejects any idea or proposal that could once again bring PNL together with PSD - not in a coalition, I mean in an alliance or in a joint list. And that, from my point of view, is very evident - that the PNL will no longer be able to form any electoral alliance or joint list with the PSD, for known reasons: their behaviour in such a format, the fact that we have often neglected our electorate, and that we have been complicit in some decisions made by the Social Democratic Party. We are not in that situation; now we are in a a four-party coalition, but I want to tell you that, ahead of 2028 or even after 2028, PNL can no longer enter into such an adventure of making any such construction with the PSD. Yes to a coalition. I said that in a coalition everyone keeps their identity and goes through their own forces or in another political construction, but not with the Social Democratic Party," Muraru said in Parliament.
Asked if they are trying to destabilise Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan, he denied it, but said that he believes that "PSD projects an image of undermining" him.
"They are not trying to destabilise Ilie Bolojan, but PSD, through the channels and means it controls, political or media, does nothing but project this image of undermining Ilie Bolojan or lack of confidence of Ilie Bolojan within the PNL, which, from my point of view, was disavowed last night by that massive vote, overwhelming confidence in the prime minister," the MP said.
Regarding the possibility of PSD coordinating some liberals, Muraru commented: "I find it hard to believe that PSD has access to some liberals to the extent of changing their political opinions or discourse. I think there may be colleagues in some cases who view the situation at a national or political level for the future, depending on local specifics."
The National Political Bureau of PNL cast a vote of confidence on Monday evening in the party's national leader, Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan, confirming the majority support for him. According to a PNL statement, 47 votes "for" and three votes "against" were recorded.
