Chairman of the Hungarian Democratic Union of Romania (UDMR) Kelemen Hunor says that "a Liberal single-party government is taking shape", but that the Union won't give Liberal head Ludovic Orban a "blank cheque".
He reiterated that a government is needed as soon as possible to bring to end the "political crisis".
"At the consultations [with President Iohannis] we said that the most urgent challenge is to have a government voted in Parliament, in order to put an end to the political crisis, because there are problems that need to be solved: the budget adjustment, a budget blueprint for next year, the organization of elections, the administration of the country and this should also be the mandate of the new government, which will have a limited term of one year in an electoral year when one shouldn't proceed to reforms and one doesn't need to reach all areas. One simply has to handle the current problems and the problems that need to be solved within a year, without resorting to emergency ordinances. We also proposed solutions - we said that the first option would be a UDMR premier. We think that would succeed in building a majority, but of course, it all depends on President Iohannis," said Kelemen Hunor.
