President Klaus Iohannis To Meet With Sevil Shhaideh Next Week
Romanian President Klaus Iohannis and Sevil Shhaideh, PSD’s proposition for PM, had a phone conversation on Thursday and will have a meeting next week, according to political sources.
Iohannis said he would designate the future Prime Minister after Christmas.
PSD president, Liviu Dragnea, stated that Shhaideh would have a meeting with the President if she was invited.
”I don’t have a problem with the President, I have a problem with the fact that the designation is postponed. We could have used these days. They will definitely have talks about what she plans to do, about how she sees the governing. What they can’t talk about is the government team,” Dragnea said. (mediafax.ro)

Former MP Sebastian Ghita was lost by police officers who were watching him Monday evening on his way home from an event organized by Romanian Intelligence Service (SRI), sources close to the investigation told Mediafax.
He was allegedly driving by over 200 km/h on national road DN 1 and the police car which was following him was blocked by another car. Later, police officers found Ghita’s car parked in front of his house, so that they thought he was at home, sleeping.
Ghita, who may have fled the country, failed to show up when subpoenaed. The former MP was being investigated at large and was court-ordered not to leave the country. A warrant has been issued for his arrest. (mediafax.ro)
