UDMR leader, about the possible exit of the PSD from the government: this would be missing now

The Minister of Development, Cseke Attila (UDMR) believes that it is mandatory for the current government formula to be preserved, stressing that in the current context, a very difficult one, decisions must be made for the country, not for a party.

He also hopes that the Social Democrats will remain in the coalition: “this would be missing now, in the context in which we are with this deficit.”

“It is mandatory to go further, now, sure, I speak from the UDMR, because I cannot talk from the others. In a four-formation coalition and the group of national minorities, and from here they will be, there is no, I do not think that somewhere in the world there is a coalition where four parties are not, in the world, I do not understand. But it must be discussed, it must be debated. Attila Monday evening, at Antena 3, according to Agerpres.

In the context, he was asked that the PSD “did not take off the table” the option to get out of government.

“I hope it will not happen, this would be missing now, in the context in which we are with this deficit that, obviously, we do not enjoy, but we have to manage. And, from what I see, we are not talking about a week, for a month, we have a very difficult period in front of us, which means this year. Point in the privileges and we will have money in the state budget. Two of next year, so that we can not be so blunt and so harsh.

The interim president of the PSD, Sorin Grindeanu, previously announced on Monday, that the Social Democrats have several conditions to return to the coalition sessions, including “Adopting a privilege elimination package”, which must be solved before discussions for the second package of deficit reduction measures. The statements were made at the end of the meeting of the PSD Permanent Bureau, which lasted about two and a half hours.

The main conditions placed by the PSD, according to Grindeanu:

• “The PSD conditions the participation in the coalition sessions for the adoption of a package to eliminate the privileges (special pensions, agency reductions, the reduction of the members of the CA).
• When these things are adopted, the PSD returns to the coalition sessions.
• ⁠ We are supporting meetings with the Ministry of Finance to see a up -to -date execution of the state budget and to discuss the budget rectification. We need to talk about continuing large and small investments.
• Once these things will continue, we will move to the stage of the number three package: health, education, fiscal measures and measures to relaunch the economy. These are the PSD conditions.
• Also about the budget, we must discuss what measures mean that, from our perspective, should be rethought on the education area.“

Also on Monday, USR spokesman Cristian Seidler said, in a hotnews dialogue, that if PSD really wants to adopt measures to reduce state spending, then the social-democratic formation should attend the coalition meetings, not to boycott them: 2 ”.

Seidler said that after the Monday meeting of the PSD he understood that the Social Democrats want to adopt the 2 fiscal measures as quickly as possible, which includes the reduction of state expenses.

He said that an agreement could be reached on the coalition on package 2 measures “if we are all around the meal”: “Sure, we can each send a text and carry the discussion by email. But it goes faster if we are all in the same place.”

Sorin Grindeanu told PSD leaders on Monday that until the Central Administration discount package and the elimination of privileges, the party will not discuss other measures in the coalition. A expected measure in the coalition is, for example, the appointment of prefects and sub -prefects, according to HotNews sources.
