Elena Lasconi<\/strong>, the president of the opposition party USR, said that she is working with her colleagues on drafting a no-confidence motion against the government headed by Social Democrat leader Marcel Ciolacu. She also urged the Liberals and their president, Nicolae Ciuc\u0103, to back USR’s action.<\/p>\n

“I met thousands of soldiers, I have also been in the theatre of operations in Afghanistan, and I am proud of our soldiers. They are skilled and brave. Mr. Ciuc\u0103 is a politician and wants to become the first soldier to lead the country. Let’s see how brave you are, Mr. Ciuc\u0103! I am on my way to Parliament to work with my colleagues on the no-confidence motion to bring down the government led by Ciolacu. Come with courage, honesty, and respect. Turn these words into action! Sign USR’s no-confidence motion!” – Lasconi said<\/a> in a post on social media.<\/p>\n

In a press conference held later on Tuesday, Elena Lasconi attacked mainly the ruling Social Democrats and urged all right-wing parliamentary forces to back the no-confidence motion and “offer the Romanians a predictable, democratic government that wants to do good for the country.”<\/p>\n

She also told the Liberals to choose which side they’re on – “on the side of the people or the side of Ciolacu.”<\/p>\n

Elena Lasconi’s announcement came soon after Nicolae Ciuc\u0103, the president of the National Liberal Party (PNL), said that the Liberals will no longer stay in the ruling coalition with PSD<\/a>, but will remain in the government “to prevent the full escalation of abuses that they can achieve to win elections.”<\/p>\n
