We tried to form a majority with Mr. Siegfried Mureșan, we did not succeed, and our limits in Parliament are somewhere around 40%, so we cannot form a majority.

Sorin Grindeanu requested the Constitutional Court to acknowledge the existence of this constitutional legal conflict between Parliament and the Government and to establish the conduct to be followed in order to restore constitutional order. #Constituție #Guvern #Parlament (translated)
