"If we are only good when the bill comes, it is better for us to leave the government" – Lia Olguța Vasilescu, at the PSD Congress

Lia Olguța Vasilescu launched a harsh attack on the government partners on Friday at the PSD Congress, stating that the party must quickly decide whether to remain in a coalition where it is not listened to. "If we are only good when the bill comes, we might as well leave the government," said the mayor of Craiova. She criticized the unilateral way decisions are made, citing the example of setting the minimum wage without consulting the PSD, and accused the PNL of accepting "resistant ministers" in their own portfolios, arguing that the USR now has more ministers in the Government than the social democrats.
