Romanians

The Social Democratic Party (PSD) will present on Thursday the text of a censure motion against the Government, which will be made available for signature, announced the party's first vice-chair, Sorin Grindeanu. "Today, PSD will present the text of the censure motion. (...) PSD is the only party that has the power given by the number of parliamentarians to initiate a censure motion.

In a clear blow to the ruling party, Romanians voted overwhelmingly on Sunday in favour of justice reform in a consultative referendum held at the same time as the European Parliament elections in which the party also fared badly.

Consultations between President Klaus Iohannis and civil society leaders on a referendum on justice legislation have started at Cotroceni Palace.
