- Seven Social Democratic ministers resigned, jeopardizing Romania’s eligibility for about €27 billion in EU funds and its credit rating.
- The resignations left Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan without a parliamentary majority after the Social Democratic Party demanded his resignation over his spending-cut plan.
- Bolojan will appoint interim ministers for 45 days, while President Nicusor Dan said the coalition rejects any far-right alliance and has not yet agreed on a governing arrangement.
