Romanian President Nicusor Dan nominated European Parliament member Siegfried Muresan as prime minister on Thursday, the third nomination in four months after two previous candidates failed to secure parliamentary backing, acknowledging that no clear majority had emerged from consultations with the country's political parties and that Romania urgently needed a government. Dan said Muresan had been chosen because he received the most votes from parties during consultations and had relevant expertise from his experience in the European Parliament, giving him ten days to assemble a cabinet and programme before seeking a parliamentary vote of confidence. The nomination follows the failure of PNL politician Adrian Vestea's proposed government in June and MEP Eugen Tomac's withdrawal after failing to secure sufficient support, with Romania having been in political crisis since Liberal Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan's government was brought down by a no-confidence motion in May 2026.
