AUR denunță decizia abuzivă a CCR de invalidare a candidaturii lui Călin Georgescu și anunță mobilizarea forțelor suveraniste. Această hotărâre reprezintă un pumn în gura opoziției reale din românia, a candidaților suveraniști și o dovadă clară că interlopii politici care controlează statul român sunt disperați să își mențină puterea cu orice preț.
The party emphasizes the importance of an authentic sovereignist candidate:
Decizia finală privind susținerea unui candidat pentru funcția de președinte al României va fi luată în urma consultării cu domnul Călin Georgescu. Ne dorim să existe un candidat suveranist autentic, nu un fals suveranist, impus de sistem.
The parliamentary strike commenced on March 12, with the party vowing to continue until their demands are met:
Începând de astăzi, 12 martie, intrăm în grevă parlamentară alături de celelalte partide suveraniste. Nu ne vom opri până când democrația și dreptul românilor la alegeri libere nu vor fi restabilite. Lupta continua!
