Dan Dungaciu, first vice president of AUR: "The only solution is the triggering of early elections"

First Vice President of AUR, Dan Dungaciu, stated in an interview for Cotidianul that the only option will be to trigger early elections, in the context of Sorin Grindeanu's refusal to collaborate with AUR to form a government and Nicușor Dan's statements regarding the non-acceptance of a prime minister from a PSD-AUR majority.

Dungaciu emphasized that AUR is open to any collaboration that could lead to these elections and denied the possibility of a governing partnership with PSD.

He explained that AUR initiated a joint motion of censure with PSD to fulfill promises to supporters.

"The only solution to untie this Gordian knot is early elections, and actors like PNL-USR could be our partners on the road to triggering early elections," added the first vice president of AUR, for Cotidianul.

PSD, PNL, USR, and UDMR want to restore the coalition, following Bolojan's fall, according to Dungaciu

He also warned that, in the case of forming a new government, the risk is that the old coalition will remain in power without solutions for Romania's current problems.

"The same coalition that has existed until now will want to take the reins further. This government, the same coalition that has had no solutions until now in Romania, will have an even weaker position in relation to itself and in relation to Romanians and in relation to the capacity to respond to crises," added the first vice president of AUR for Cotidianul.

The motion of censure submitted by PSD and AUR was signed by 251 parliamentarians, will be presented on Wednesday in Parliament and will be voted on next week, May 5.

The President of Romania, Nicușor Dan, said on Tuesday that pro-European parties do not intend to form a government with AUR, considering a coalition between these forces extremely unlikely.

He also assessed the scenario of early elections as being unlikely, emphasizing that most political crises have not ended with such elections.
