Romanian Politician Warns Fritz Mayoral Loss Would Strip Political Platform

Alfred Simonis, PSD Timiș leader, claims that if Dominic Fritz loses the Timișoara mayorship, he would lose his main political power base and the platform for his rise to lead USR. This is a domestic political statement ahead of local elections, reflecting intra-party and inter-party maneuvering. The claim is unverified and represents political rhetoric rather than a confirmed development.
