Acosti argued that Călin Georgescu's opponents were afraid of him because, in his opinion, they could not conceive that someone could act out of conviction and patriotism, without seeking a position or reward. He stated that Georgescu selflessly loved his country and possessed qualities such as stature, eloquence, and soul. The author accused Georgescu's critics of confusing position and wealth with value and respect, mentioning cars like the BMW X6 and Range Rover. He argued that dignity and character could not be obtained through positions, company cars, or image campaigns, and that power belonged to the Romanian people. Acosti further stated that the opponents' fear stemmed from the comparison with Georgescu, whom he described as a respected man without invoking his position. In his view, his presence made the imperfections of the critics more visible, and they were afraid of what they lacked. #România #Patriotism #Dreptate (translated)

The risks of having a discontinuity in European funding on January 1, 2028, can be quite significant if a new Multiannual Financial Framework is not agreed upon by the end of the current year, so that in 2027, the implementing legislation can be adopted and technical preparations for the entry into force of the new funding can be completed. Additionally, presidential adviser Valentin Naumescu warned that tough and complicated negotiations will follow within the European Union, as some states, including Romania, are demanding the preservation of funding for Cohesion Policy and the Common Agricultural Policy in the new Multiannual Financial Framework 2028-2034, while Germany and five other countries want a reduction in these funds. #NicusorDan #UniuneaEuropeana #CadrulFinanciarMultianual (translated)

The forecasts closest to reality are for the next ten days and they show that we are not talking about a sustained increase (in the level of the Danube - editor's note), but rather about decreases, which is extremely concerning. Additionally, forecasts that are less accurate but must be taken into account indicate that only towards the end of October and the beginning of November can we talk about increasing flows and a rise in the level of the Danube, which would allow us to consider (restarting the plant - editor's note). The final decision will certainly be up to the specialists, because we must ensure the safety of the Cernavodă Nuclear Power Plant, to restart it safely and we cannot risk damaging the pumps, it would take months, maybe a year to replace them. So we cannot play around with the reopening; all parameters must be met and experienced people from there will follow the manuals, they will comply. The Secretary of State in the Ministry of Energy Cristian Buşoi stated on Wednesday evening, on Digi24, that he does not know when the Cernavodă Nuclear Power Plant can be restarted, noting that forecasts continue to indicate a low flow of the Danube. #CentralaCernavodă #CristianBuşoi #EnergieRomania (translated)
