The Embassy of the United Kingdom in Bucharest congratulates Romania saying that this is “an exceptional moment” for the country”, following the two main events of the last couple of days: the loss of EU elections by PSD, the valid referendum called by president Klaus Iohannis to prevent PSD from further weakening the courts and the three-and-a-half year prison sentence against its leader Liviu Dragnea.
“An exceptional moment for Romanian democracy. Three decades after the fall of communism, Romania has demonstrated these days, by massive vote and by a key decision of justice, that its institutions are functioning, and the civic spirit is stronger than ever. Congratulations, Romania!” the embassy said on Tuesday, in a press release.
