PSD President Marcel Çolaku said on Tuesday that it is impossible to continue for a long period of time with an emergency order on energy prices, and it is necessary to take separate measures, in each area separately.

“We cannot allocate 3% of GDP to energy speculation,” the Social Democrat leader said, referring to “semi-regulation of the domestic sphere” and intervention against those who sell energy on the Day Ahead market. (ROM drive).

“If we are talking about semi-regulation in the domestic sphere, and I would not like us to come to a conflict in the coalition, we can cover from our own production, where the state is the majority in these companies. (…) I sold energy for 3-400 lei, and now it is sold for 2000-3000 lei. We overtaxed producers whose products cost maybe 100 lei and are sold for 400 lei by 85%. And for those who sell from 4-500 to 2-3000 per ROM, there is no regulation. We should intervene in this area, not with extra taxes. At this point, we have to find a very quick solution,” Çolaku said, claiming that the PSD has three solutions that it will discuss at the coalition meeting.
