Romanian PM-designate Adrian Veștea to submit team and ruling strategy to Parliament

Romania’s prime minister-designate Adrian Veștea is set to submit his proposed government programme and the list of ministers to Parliament on June 18, as he seeks to secure support for a new cabinet amid an ongoing political crisis, according to Agerpres. The latest form of the list of ministers, as published by G4media.ro, shows that many of the Social Democrat (PSD) ministers and some Liberal (PNL) ones would return.

In a Facebook post published on June 17, Veștea said the programme was in its final stage of preparation and that each measure was being assessed from the perspective of its budgetary impact to ensure compliance with deficit targets. Previously, he said that he would follow the ruling strategy of his predecessor, Ilie Bolojan, “down to the smallest detail.”
