Summary
Romanian Prime Minister-designate Adrian Veștea has lost his party's (PNL) support amid a deepening political crisis. Party leaders, including Ilie Bolojan, have called for his resignation and threatened to expel any party members who support his government. Veștea has refused to resign and plans to rely on dissident PNL lawmakers to secure the parliamentary majority needed to form a government. The party's Secretary-General confirmed that any member accepting a ministerial or prime minister position in Veștea's government without party mandate will face expulsion.
