Parliamentary talks following resignation of Prime Minister-designate

Romanian President Klaus Iohannis has summoned parliamentary parties for talks, on Friday, with a view to designating a new Prime Minister. Decision comes following resignation of Prime Minister-designate Florin Cîțu on Thursday, just as Parliament was preparing for the investiture vote of his proposed Cabinet.

Iohannis considers his gesture a proof of political maturity in the ‘complicated context’ caused by the coronavirus. Head of State has called on Parliament to give a vote of investiture, next week, to a fully-fledged government that should be able to fight effects of the new coronavirus.
