Adrian Zuckerman, former US ambassador to Romania, denounced, in an intervention on Antena 3, bizarre practices in state-owned companies, such as the rehiring of retired directors, emphasizing that these dysfunctions reflect an inefficient system. He criticized the Bolojan government for its misguided approach to austerity measures, suggesting that it should start with unprofitable state companies. Zuckerman proposed partial privatization of profitable companies as a solution for more efficient governance, highlighting successful examples such as Hidroelectrica.
