After the Congress, the Politc Committee of the USR has a hybrid, online and physical meeting, from 3:20 pm, in the context of the discussions for the formation of the Government. The meeting is a necessary one because this forum approves “everything that means political strategy”.
“So before clapping the palm on anything, it has to go through the political committee,” sources from the party, for Hotnews, explained, why such a meeting is needed.
“Given the recent political evolutions and the appointment of Ilie Bolojan as a prime minister, the president of the USR, Dominic Fritz, convenes the Political Committee,” a message said on Friday to USR members.
Initially, this meeting was scheduled to take place on Friday, from 4:00 pm, but due to the blockage caused in the discussions between Nicușor Dan and Ilie Bolojan, who postponed the prime minister's designation, the meeting was canceled.
The USR welcomed the decision of President Nicușor Dan on Friday to designate him for the position of prime minister Ilie Bolojan, which he says is a “clear signal that Romania can be governed seriously and with common sense”.
