Nicusor Dan appeals for calm in the Euro/Leu Rate Instability

June 5, 2025

The independent presidential candidate, Nicusor Dan, who will face AUR leader George Simion in the second round of the elections, declared, in a press conference held on Tuesday, that there is no reason to panic, in the context in which the euro exchange rate exceeded the 5 lei threshold on Tuesday.   “I send a message of calm and optimism regarding the developments in the financial market yesterday and today. Romania has a competitive private economy. The National Bank has a foreign exchange reserve of 60 billion euros, which can absorb any kind of attack on the leu. In the 2021-2027 financial year, Romania is now starting to absorb considerable amounts of European money, so there is no reason for financial panic,” Nicusor Dan said in a press conference.   As for Marcel Ciolacu’s stepping down from the PM’s office , the independent presidential candidate replied: “I don’t think it was appropriate for Marcel Ciolacu to continue leading the Government after the November elections. It will be a temporary situation for two weeks, it happens all over the world.”
