Grindeanu criticized Mureșan's statements, emphasizing the role of the PSD in Romania's Euro-Atlantic integration.

Following Siegfried Mureșan's statements, Grindeanu, the leader of the PSD, reacted at the National Political Council of the party, stating that Mureșan is talking nonsense. He emphasized the PSD's contribution to Romania's integration into NATO and the European Union, stating that the party will lead Romania towards joining the OECD and the eurozone.

Grindeanu criticized USR, mentioning that it was built on attacks against the PSD and highlighted the contradictions in its politics. He also accused PNL of having a progressive wing that focuses on attacks against the PSD, instead of proposing concrete economic measures. Grindeanu's reaction comes after Mureșan stated that a PSD government would not be able to defend Romania's interests in negotiations for European funds.
