Romanian PNL rejects AEP party-threshold hike, calls bill PSD electoral ploy

Romania's National Liberal Party (PNL) opposes the Permanent Electoral Authority's (AEP) proposal to raise the founder threshold for a political party to 100 members, framing it as a PSD-driven move to entrench incumbents. PNL plans to introduce its own bill granting AEP 'real political independence.' The dispute signals pre-election maneuvering ahead of the 2026 electoral cycle, with implications for party-system competitiveness.
