The Social Democrat Party (PSD) and National Union for Romania’s Progress (UNPR) postponed the signing of partnership protocol on Wednesday morning, with discussion to be resumed after the Senate’s plenary sitting vote on UNPR leader Gabriel Oprea’s immunity lifting.

PSD chairman Liviu Dragnea argued that Wednesday is a ‘complicated day’ due to this vote.

Asked of the vote on prosecution request against Oprea was conditioned by signing this protocol, Dragnea denied. On the other hand he said that PSD would maintain decision to vote for the National Anti-corruption Directorate’s prosecution request.
