PSD leader wants to expel four members

Mircea Geoana, president of the PSD (Social-Democrat Party), is trying to save himself after the failure of the bill against the government. The PSD leaders decided yesterday to withdraw party support and open procedures to expel from the party the following members: Ion Solcanu, Razvan Theodorescu, Dan Mihalache and Alin Theodorescu. The four were officially reproached for their public statements against the PSD bill, but not for their ballots against the bill.
Mircea Geoana didn't dare criticize senator Ion Iliescu, an honorary president of the PSD, although yesterday the latter kept on accusing party heads and all the sanctions they set. Still Ion Iliescu's fate may be decided by the executive committee of the PSD due to meet next Saturday in Brasov. Party sources claim they may talk about expelling Ion Iliescu from the party. (...)
