The President Klaus Iohannis stated on Tuesday that the turnout of the parliamentary elections was low, but is pleased that voting has ended well.

"Referring to the turnout of the elections which was approximately 39.5 pct, I find it low, but it fits the turnout in other parliamentary elections. We all wanted, I wanted very much to have a better turnout, but I think that those who had a word to say, they said it, and I am pleased that elections have ended well," Iohannis said at the Cotroceni Palace.

The head of state thanked those involved in the organization and functioning of the voting.

"Elections have ended well and, in principle, the results are known in the meantime very well. Regarding the organization, we must remark that elections have unfolded quietly, with no notable incidents, things have been organized very well and it is the case to thank all those involved in the organization and conduct of the voting - the Central Electoral Bureau and within it, particularly, the Permanent Electoral Authority. The Government should be thanked, especially the Ministry of Interior (MAI) and structures of the ministry - Police, Gendarmerie. All have done their duty and with use. The Special Telecommunications Service (STS) should be thanked as well, as it made sure that the electronic systems functioned. And special thanks addressed to independent observers who have contributed to the smooth flow of the election process," Iohannis stated.
