President Klaus Iohannis will begin consultations with parliamentary parties in order to appoint a new prime minister
President Klaus Iohannis will start consultations with the parliamentary parties for the appointment of a new prime minister, after the Cîțu Government’s confidence in the Parliament was withdrawn. At this moment, the parties finalize in the governing forums the mandates with which they will go to Cotroceni. PSD announced recently that it will not make a proposal for a prime minister during talks with the head of state. President Marcel Ciolacu stated that the party could return to power if a parliamentary majority is outlined, although he initially said that the only solution for resolving the political crisis is to hold early elections. The Social Democrats underlined that the party’s delegation also includes three representatives of the local elected officials, to sound the alarm about the discretionary way in which the executive allocated the funds for local public administrations./opopescu

He also points out that the electricity network cannot be upgraded as long as many people are hospitalized. In fact, the modernization of the Intensive Care Unit was also postponed due to the pandemic./opopescu
