The decision comes a month after the previous head of government was ousted in a no-confidence vote by parliament.
“Since the parties cannot agree with each other, the only possible solution is a prime minister who would be independent from the parties in the parliament and who could successfully lead Romania (…) in the direction that the Romanian people want, this means a pro-Western position, this means maintaining financial stability,” stated N. Dan.
E. Tomac stated that he would propose a “technical government, not a political one”.
Romania’s previous pro-European prime minister, Ilie Bolojan, lost a no-confidence vote initiated by the Social Democrats and the far-right a month ago and had to step down.
