National Press Review August 23

23 August 2012, 10:31

Who is the bill crisis and who pays. How the political war has affected the economy?

We read about this issue in România Liberă , that considers the exchange of blows between the two camps is guilty for the thinning of BNR’s currency reserve and weaken the Leu, for differences in privatisations and greater precautions of potential investors.

So far, "Follow the fight for quorum in Parliament ", writes Adevărul .

If not, will provide the presence, PDL has prepared a plan: they have signatures- a sufficient number, Democratic-Liberals claim to require that a special session on Friday.

But even so, they can meet the quorum problem again.

România Liberă believes that the possible lack of attendance in Parliament is connected with the fact that neither CSM could not convene in order to take note of the resignation of Mona Pivniceru.

"Traian Băsescu has still been waiting for his return to Cotroceni. How? Until Mona Pivniceru is installed ", believes România Liberă.

And in the ad pages of the newspaper, we find that of the Association of Magistrates, which informs members of SCSM that are required to be submitted to the plenary meeting today to discuss issues of major importance for justice.

About the way in which the Constitutional Court decided, Jurnalul Naţional writes that it would have "ignored the recommendations of the Venice Commission".

Romania is the only country in the European Union which does not record on the special election list the foreign citizens ".

Depending on the circumstances, the Commission recommends that even some restrictions to the exclusion of people who no longer have ties to their country of origin and who would not vote anyway.

Meanwhile, precisely from President Băsescu comes a consistent silence, observes Bursa : "Băsescu, facing the people that shows the back".

"If he speaks , then his only logical word would be:- I quit ", meaning "a kind of << let there be light!, >>” , because although he was not defeated in this battle, Băsescu is a president who has lost legitimacy " believes the journalists from Bursa.

Evenimentul Zilei tells us how it was the "last August 23. When Nicolae and Elena Ceaşescu celebrated with feasting THE last August 23, the country was in turmoil, and all across Eastern Europe, announced the best times.

Today we live in political scandals and economic uncertainties, but there is hope for the best, believes the newspaper.

Ziarul Financiar launches a new request to the Government: "Stop the disastrous management of state-owned companies, regardless of method."

This has to do if if it wants to turn the "milking cows" in profitable companies.

In Adevărul we learn that "All-Inclusive Fashion crossed the Danube".

In Bulgaria was successful, what chance has here in Romanian sand? Tourists seem happy enough.

But hoteliers, as they were talented to draw attention , they knew to chase them, too.

For example, the hotel administrators have had a bad inspiration to tell guests to eat less in order to have for everyone.
