A faction within Romania’s National Liberal Party (PNL) opposed to party leader Ilie Bolojan has launched a legal challenge against recent decisions made by the party’s Permanent Bureau (BPN). The challenge, filed with the Bucharest Tribunal, specifically targets the planned expulsion of PNL members who supported the government of former Prime Minister Nicolae Ciucă (referred to as “Veștea” in the text). Sixteen party members are contesting the BPN’s decisions, seeking an urgent presidential ordinance to suspend the expulsions. The move signals an internal power struggle within the PNL, centering on loyalty to Bolojan versus support for the previous administration. The plaintiffs argue the expulsions are unjust and seek immediate intervention from the court. The case highlights divisions within the party following a shift in leadership and political alignment.
