Romania's PSD Rejects Austerity Measures, Vows to Protect Citizens' Incomes Romania's Social Democratic Party (PSD) has firmly rejected proposed austerity measures that would cut funding for ongoing development projects and reduce the income of Romanians. Interim PSD president Sorin Grindeanu delivered a strong statement, asserting the party's commitment to protecting citizens' livelihoods and ensuring the continuation of crucial infrastructure projects. "We cannot accept any measures that would decrease the income of Romanians, whether it's pensions or salaries," stated Grindeanu in a recent video address. He further emphasized the need for a more efficient administration, stating, "We need a more efficient administration, whether it's at the local or central level." Grindeanu used the video to showcase ongoing infrastructure projects, highlighting the party's commitment to economic development. The PSD's stance contrasts sharply with proposals from other political factions advocating for budget cuts. Grindeanu's video statement is expected to generate significant debate in the Romanian political landscape. The party's commitment to infrastructure development and its firm opposition to austerity measures are likely to be key issues in upcoming elections.
