PM Ciolacu: Election for office of president, in September, as we have decided
Prime minister Marcel Ciolacu said on Friday that the elections for the office of president of the country will be held in September, as decided by the coalition.
"It is obvious that the elections for the office of president are in September, as we have decided. We laid down a very clear condition, we did not announce the merger of elections until we had the full election calendar. (...) The election calendar is announced before the merger," premier Ciolacu said after the Social Democratic Party (PSD) National Political Council meeting.
He added that regardless of whether there will be a single candidate of the PSD and the National Liberal Party (PNL) in the presidential elections or whether the PSD will go alone to these elections, the Social Democrats will have a candidate for the office of president of Romania.
Marcel Ciolacu said that in early July, the PSD will hold a congress to decide the presidential candidate.
