The National Liberal Party (PNL) in Romania recently held a congress marked by internal disputes and leadership changes. Ilie Bolojan was elected president of PNL for the next two years, with four vice presidents and a secretary general appointed alongside him. Prior to the congress, party leaders including Nicușor Dan emphasized the need for genuine reforms, acknowledging that Romanian voters may no longer forgive the party without real change. The congress featured behind-the-scenes negotiations, internal attacks, and skepticism about the distribution of party positions. Post-congress, tensions escalated as Alin Tișe, president of the Cluj County Council, accused a "cooperative of traitors and non-performers" of seizing power within the party. Deputy Florin Roman declared he would no longer prioritize the party. The Cluj branch, associated with Emil Boc, reportedly received no positions at the congress, fueling further discontent. Separately, Nicușor Dan called for improved relations between the Romanian state and citizens, urging strong messages against domestic violence and drug use from law enforcement and judicial bodies. Other political developments include Ana Blandiana, who previously supported Nicușor Dan and Ilie Bolojan, now warning the president and prime minister. Additionally, former SRI generals Florian Coldea and Dumitru Dumbravă have been implicated in legal proceedings involving intermediaries who recruited clients, highlighting ongoing judicial scrutiny within Romania's security services.
