Most newspapers today read about the plans of the Democrat Liberals to replace ex PSD leader Mircea Geoana from his position as Speaker of the Senate. The Democrat Liberals received the support of the Hungarian Democrats for their plans, Gandul reads.
The strategy seems to work, after the leadership of the Democrat Liberals approved the action endorsed by the Senators. If the Social Democrats will not be present in the Senate's Permanent Office, the Democrat liberals will call for resignation, claiming that the Social Democrats boycott the Parliamentary activity.
However, the Social Democrats have every interest to attend the meeting and Democrat Liberals will introduce a resignation request to discussion on Wednesday, irrespective if it will not pass in the Permanent Office.
Hungarian Democrats announced their support for the Democrat liberals yesterday. PSD leader Victor Ponta declared that representatives of the other parties are acting as if a foreign party took over Romania which endangers the democratic process.
Evenimentul Zilei reads that even if they manage to change the Senate's Speaker, the Democrat Liberals do not have a replacer. Sources declared that most probably, PDL Transports minister will be named if Geoana will be revoked.
However, Berceanu declared that he is not interested in the position.
