'We have signed today the political agreement between PSD, PNL, USR, UDMR, and the Parliamentary Group of National Minorities for the setting up of a coalition that will ensure a stable government focused on fundamental structural reforms, performance in government, the development of Romania, respect for citizens, and the consolidation of democracy,' Ilie Bolojan told a joint press conference with the leaders of the PSD, USR, UDMR, and National Minorities after signing the political agreement.
