The Liberal Party (PNL), of which he is a member, has formally refused to endorse his nomination and warned that party members who accept ministerial positions or vote in favour of a Ve\u0219tea government without authorisation could face expulsion.<\/p>\n<p>Reformist USR has also rejected any cooperation with the Social Democrats (PSD), while the Hungarian minority party UDMR has distanced itself from Ve\u0219tea\u2019s bid.
