Petre Toba on Thursday announced having decided to tender his resignation as interior minister to avoid getting the Interior Ministry mired in a public scandal ahead of the general election. Previously, Prime Minister Ciolos said it would be best for Interior Minister Toba to step down.
"One thing is clear, irrespective of what member of the Movement would be involved: when my signature is affixed to a proposal for appointment or dismissal, the person involved should resign or else I will be asking him or her to leave. (...) Obviously, given the circumstances, it would be best to him and the Government for him to leave," said Ciolos about the situation of Minister Toba.
