Romanian prime minister and leader of the National Liberal Party, Ilie Bolojan, stated in a recent interview that he will not resign in the event of a motion of censure filed by coalition partners in the Social Democratic Party. He also ruled out an alliance with the far-right party Alliance for the Union of Romanians, or AUR.
