Opposition forms alliance against president Basescu

Conservative leader, Dan Voiculescu, and far-right leader Corneliu Vadim Tudor support the social democrat (PSD) initiative to suspend president Basescu. Voiculescu said that the reasons for his party to support such a decision are Basescu’s late false statements and his contribution to the undermining of the national economy.

Vadim Tudor, president of the far right Great Romania Party, declared on Tuesday that he supports without any comments the PSD initiative and that he already gathered 15 signatures in the Parliament so that the president suspension process may begin.

PSD also demands prime minister’s resignation after the recent scandal on influence trafficking. Above all, PSD wants the referendum Law to be modified so that the president could be suspended even in the case of massive vote absenteeism.
