AER for Romania was an ecological Romanian electoral alliance active between December 2023 and February 2024. Established on 9 December 2023, exclusively as an electoral alliance between the Green Party – The Greens (PV VERZII) and the Ecologist Party of Romania (PER), the alliance was formed to participate together in the June 2024 European Parliament elections in Romania.[1][2]
Marius Lazar, Lavinia Cosma and Florin Secară, as leaders of the alliance, declared on 9 December that the two parties reached an agreement to give confidence to the green, environmentalist electorate to invest a useful vote in the 2024 elections.[3][4]
Ideology
Alianta AER is an ecological alliance, which is addressed to all nature lovers, to entrepreneurs with a green vision, to all those who believe in the need for clean air, clean water and clean products.[5]
The Alliance is considered to be left-of-center economically and fiscally, supporting higher budgets allocated to education, health and environmental protection.[6][7][8] Also, the alliance supports the increase of the minimum wage and demands the elimination of all special pensions.[citation needed]
From a cultural point of view, the alliance is considered a moderate one supporting investments in the Romanian countryside,[9] the promotion and preservation of the Romanian cultural identity and the PER opposes same-sex marriage.[10]
