Romanian president Nicu\u0219or Dan<\/strong> is expected to take steps on appointing a new prime minister before departing for Montenegro on June 4, with B1 TV<\/a> reporting that presidential adviser Eugen Tomac is likely to receive the nomination. The move would come nearly one month after PM Ilie Bolojan\u2019s government was dismissed by a no-confidence vote and remained in office in a caretaker capacity.<\/p>\n

According to the report, Tomac has already held discussions with leaders of parties that formed the previous governing coalition and informed them that he is expected to receive a mandate to form a cabinet. However, media reports indicate that parliamentary support for such a government remains uncertain.<\/p>\n

President Dan has not publicly mentioned Eugen Tomac among potential candidates for the premiership.<\/p>\n

The nomination would come amid continuing efforts by the president to persuade parties from the former coalition to renew their cooperation and support a new government. The Liberal Party (PNL), reformist USR, and the Hungarian party UDMR have all signalled opposition to a technocratic or politically independent prime minister.<\/p>\n

Under Romania\u2019s Constitution, a designated prime minister is not required to immediately seek a confidence vote in Parliament, although a government can only take office after receiving parliamentary approval.<\/p>\n

The political stalemate has raised concerns over delays to key reforms and legislation linked to Romania\u2019s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), with Parliament having only a few weeks left in its current session.<\/p>\n
