The party\u2019s political council voted on the PSD\u2019s priorities for the future government, which it will advocate for in negotiations regarding the future government.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p-1\">\u201cThe PSD\u2019s proposal for the position of prime minister was made three months ago. Nothing has changed. We don\u2019t change our decisions based on which way the wind blows. Obviously, I\u2019m willing to take on the role of prime minister. However, I remind you that it is the president who makes the appointment,\u201d stated Sorin Grindeanu.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p-2\">The PSD president says he will support only two options: a single-party PSD government or a government \u201ccentered around the PSD.\u201d In fact, the leader also said he will not vote for a government in which the PSD is not a member.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p-3\">\u201cWhat we, the Social Democratic Party, have established today is the political framework within which the PSD will support the future government, and the options are either a PSD minority government or a government centered around the PSD. Unlike others who confuse the government with a city hall, I know what it means to be prime minister. I experienced it during those six months,\u201d the party leader added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p-4\">Sorin Grindeanu stated that he currently does not have the votes necessary to form a PSD government. The Social Democratic leader said that the only support he has in Parliament consists of the 187 votes\u2014the same number that Adrian Ve\u0219tea managed to secure\u2014which are insufficient to form a government with full powers.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p-5\">Negotiations regarding the future government are set to take place at the Cotroceni Palace in the coming days, involving all pro-Western political parties.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sorin Grindeanu, the PSD president, stated Monday upon leaving the PSD meeting that he is ready to assume the role of prime minister, adding that he already has the necessary &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/?p=710883\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":710884,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/710883"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=710883"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/710883\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/710884"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=710883"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=710883"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microscopemedia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=710883"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
