President Klaus Iohannis on Monday suggested to the MPs a year without populisms or haphazard measures, inviting them to take up some major themes.
He added that election years have unfortunately brought a certain kind of practices in Romania.
Iohannis pointed out that in 2016 the MPs stand a big chance of doing things differently.
"We are in a context unlike the past when the end of term in office may mean more attention, more responsibility and more preoccupation with genuinely listening to what our fellow citizens want," he said.
The President mentioned that all this are part of joint action and not the will on one man.
Iohannis said this year's elections are the first opportunity for a renewal of attitudes, ideas and people, with the political parties being the main actors.
He pointed out that legislative instability affects more than just the operation of the economy, society and big public systems such as education, and it starts being a vulnerability of the democratic system. AGERPRES
