💨 Abstract

New Romanian pro-Western President Nicusor Dan nominated center-right former mayor Ilie Bolojan, 56, to be prime minister, aiming to end the country's political crisis. The decision comes after weeks of deliberations and follows a heated presidential election. Bolojan's nomination must be approved by lawmakers. The new government, expected to include leftist, conservative, reformist, and ethnic Hungarian parties, will focus on economic recovery and reducing the budget deficit.
