Romania’s designated Prime Minister Adrian Veștea is expected to submit his proposed cabinet list and governing program to Parliament amid ongoing, increasingly tense coalition negotiations. The Social Democratic Party (PSD) is attempting to secure a parliamentary majority for Veștea, who is nominated by the National Liberal Party (PNL). Discussions have reportedly taken place with the far-right AUR party, despite official denials from AUR representatives. Internally, the PNL is facing a growing rift between factions supporting the government and those led by Lucian Bolojan, who has called for an emergency party congress. The PSD is scheduled to meet at Parliament to discuss the situation. The fourth day of negotiations highlights the challenges in forming a stable governing coalition.
