Romanian Govt, Administration Should Buy Romanian Cars– Leftist Opp Head

Romanian social democrat leader Mircea Geoana said Tuesday the temporary cancellation of the registration tax for cars is a “commonsensical” solution in the short run, and added that, in order to encourage Romanian industry, authorities should only purchase Romanian cars.

Geoana said the cancellation of the first registration tax for cars proposed by the President and the Prime Minister is, in the short run, “a commonsensical measure.”
 
He added that, during the crisis, local and central authorities should purchase, within the boundaries of the law, only locally produced cars, including from Ford, if the American company makes cars in Craiova.
 
On Monday, Tariceanu said the Government decided to suspend the car tax for the acquisition of new vehicles for three to six months, to protect the local auto industry.
