Prime Minister Viorica Dancila arrived at Parliament on Wednesday to attend the joint session of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies, during which she will present the program of the Romanian Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
At the Government meeting last week the premier congratulated all ministers and those involved in the preparation of Romania's first mandate at the EU Council Presidency."The Government will continue the preparations within the established deadlines with the same seriousness and professionalism. Together with the members of the Government, we will continue the talks on the taking over of the Presidency, but also on its exercise, and on December 12 I will present in Romania's Parliament the final form of the Presidency which Romania will take over from 1 January 2019," the prime minister said.
The prime minister added that "the only uncertain situation" is "created by President Klaus Iohannis through the blockage of the appointment of ministers in two important areas" and announced that the Government had notified the Constitutional Court of Romania.
