Sorin Grindeanu's reaction after PSD called on Prime Minister Bolojan to give explanations in Parliament: “I also expect a concrete plan”

The interim president of the PSD, Sorin Grindeanu, said on Thursday, after the PSD called the prime minister on Monday, in the Parliament, during the “Prime Minister's Hour”, on the topic of the withdrawal of US troops from Romania, that he is waiting to explain to the Romanians why we have reached this situation.

“I am waiting for him to come to the Parliament to explain to the Romanians why we ended up in this situation, to come and say, gentlemen, forget, unlike Poland, for example, we have things like this, so and so and the Foreign Minister, who from what I saw about three weeks ago, had a meeting in Washington, from where we, the Romanians, received assurances that everything is in order, look, even after a month, not even a month, it seems that it is not so”, declared Sorin Grindeanu, in a press conference in Târgu Jiu, quoted by News.ro.

“I also expect a concrete plan, beyond what happened and explanations. I expect that in the Parliament, when it comes, a concrete plan will be presented on how to strengthen Romania's security, considering what happened or what was announced by our strategic partner. That interests me, to see the causes and to see that concrete plan”, declared Sorin Grindeanu.

Asked if on Tuesday, when he had a discussion with President Nicusor Dan, he was also informed about the withdrawal of American troops from Romanian territory, Sorin Grindeanu said that he was not informed.

“I've seen the rhetoric of the last 24 hours, no,” said Grindeanu.

Asked who he was referring to when he said that there are “a lot of anti-Americans in this government”, Grindeanu answered:

“You have all seen them and they are in continuous form. When you have statements, year after year, in which you categorize the Trump administration, President Trump, in various forms, what is this called? It is the current Deputy Prime Minister Gheorghiu, I have seen positions taken of the same type by the spokesperson of the Government, something, but easier, and by the Minister of Foreign Affairs”, Grindeanu said.

Prime Minister Bolojan, called to give explanations

On Monday, November 3, PSD calls Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan to Parliament, at “Prime Minister's Hour”. The request was approved on Thursday by the leadership of the Chamber of Deputies, with the vote of PSD and AUR.

The reason is related to the Government's reaction to the US decision to withdraw part of the military from Romania, according to the document submitted by the Social Democrats.

Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan has not yet decided whether he will comply with PSD's request to give explanations in Parliament. “A decision has not been made yet. The decision will probably be made today,” Government sources told HotNews.

Also today, Sorin Grindeanu launched a new series of attacks against Ilie Bolojan, accusing, among other things, the “silence” of the Government after the decision of the United States.
