Political scientist Cristian Pîrvulescu believes that the current political crisis in Romania is the result of a "programming error" in the structure of the governing coalition, amplified by the PSD's withdrawal of support for Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan. The PSD claims that Bolojan no longer has legitimacy, citing an insufficient parliamentary majority.
Pîrvulescu emphasizes that the coalition's difficulties stem from regulations that transform the role of the prime minister from a coordinator into an authoritarian leader. He proposes two scenarios for unblocking the situation: appointing a technocratic prime minister to avoid exhausting the 45-day term or initiating a motion of no confidence, which could disqualify the PSD at the European level. Pîrvulescu warns about the risks involved in the government's dependence on extremist parties, such as AUR, which have become arbiters of power. This complicated situation underscores the reality that any vote of confidence in Parliament will require the support of AUR, raising serious questions about the collaboration of democratic parties with extremist forces.
