President Nicușor Dan called for calm and a de-escalation of political tensions after a full day of consultations with pro-Western parties on Wednesday, April 22, stressing that Romania remains a “functional state” despite the ongoing government crisis. The remarks came after the Social Democratic Party (PSD) withdrew its support for Liberal (PNL) prime minister Ilie Bolojan, pushing the ruling coalition to the brink of collapse.
Speaking after informal talks at Cotroceni Palace, Dan said the discussions were necessary to understand how each political actor views the future, even if the Constitution does not currently grant him a direct role in resolving the crisis.
