AUR party leader George Simion stated Romania will face continued negative consequences if the Social Democratic Party (PSD) refuses to include AUR in a governing coalition. Simion made the declaration following meetings with Bucharest Mayor Nicușor Dan at the Cotroceni Presidential Palace on Tuesday. The statement implies potential instability or obstruction if AUR remains in opposition. Simion did not elaborate on the specific “costs” Romania would incur. This follows ongoing negotiations regarding the formation of a new government after recent elections. The PSD is currently seeking coalition partners to secure a parliamentary majority. AUR’s participation remains a key point of contention, given its far-right political stance.
