It really happened…Early ELECTIONS in ROMANIA!

It happened!

It really happened…

We will have Elections again…Early Elections…

The Early Elections Traian Basescu talked about and, if we may say so…dreamed about…

Romania's Prime Minister Calin Popescu Tariceanu said today that his Cabinet would resign and early elections would be called after the Constitutional Court's ruling blocked essential justice reforms required by the European Union.

The irrevocable decision of Mr Tariceanu was taken after a talk head to head with Traian Basescu and after Mr. Jonathan Scheele, the European Commission's head of mission in Bucharest said that the rejection would have a negative impact on Romania's EU bid.

Critical justice reforms were requested by the European Union, which Romania wants to join in 2007. If Romania fails to reform its justice system and enforce antitrust rules, then as per EU's warning its admission would be delayed by a year.

The court, declared certain parts of the justice laws to be unconstitutional. The challenge in the Constitutional Court was brought by deputies from the opposition Social Democrats.

Tariceanu met today with President Traian Basescu to discuss the situation. The Prime Minister later announced his resignation and said that legal procedures to hold new elections would be started.

``The blocking of the justice reforms means we have no chance to get a good report from the European Union that would allow us to join in 2007,'' Tariceanu said speaking on television from the government headquarters.

He said new elections were needed to get a stronger majority that would pass the justice reforms.

As Traian Basescu said months ago…( and for the record - the Prime Minister did not agreed at that time ) the Alliance for Justice and Truth - Alianta DA (PD + PNL) - needs to turn back to the Romanian people and ask for it's trust and support.

``People can vote on whether they want to keep this dirty (justice) system, with a Constitutional Court dominated by the former ruling (Social Democratic) Party.''

Parliament can overturn the court's decision with a two-thirds majority, but the ruling coalition lacks the majority necessary to overturn the court's ruling.

The court, which is packed with people who are close to former president Ion Iliescu and former Social Democratic Party lawmakers, declared certain parts of the justice laws to be unconstitutional.

The judges struck down passages which provided for competition for judicial appointments and a mandatory retirement age for judges.

Justice Minister Monica Macovei said those measures were necessary to provide for competent judges and an end to political influence on the courts.

The EU commission said Romania would have to make continuous progress to be able to join in 2007, and that Romania needed to have an ``independent, impartial and efficient'' justice system. The commission added that it would study the court's ruling, state news agency Rompres reported.

The opposition Social Democratic Party, which had asked the court to review the laws, has denied that it influenced the court's ruling through its former members that dominate the court.

Former Prime Minister Adrian Nastase, a senior Social Democratic Party leader and chairman of the lower house of parliament, offered to recall lawmakers from vacation to discuss the laws.

Romanian law stipulates that early elections can be called only if parliament is unable to choose a government within 60 days after the Cabinet's resignation.
I bet if Elections would hapend this week-end The D.A. Alliance would won the majority in Parliament.

Although the Alliance had some internal issues and small problems in the last month, if PD and PNL stay close and united…they really have the chance to obtain what they need, what they want and what Mr Basescu said months ago that they must win…more than 50% of the votes.

Traian Basescu is expected to adress the people this evening!

Do I have to remind you that Traian Basescu never lost a battle in his political career?

Maybe this is what Romanian needs.
And I am glad that Tariceanu finally has ‘the balls’ to do it…

Food for thoughts and for... bets:

Do you think that the Conservative Party AKA PUR…or the Voiculescu’s Party will obtain the 5% needed to enter the Parliament in the future Early Elections?

Do you think that UDMR might also lose it’s eternal place in the Romanian Parliament?

Do you think that Traian Basescu will be fully impartial in the next Electoral Campaign?

Do you think that Mircea Geoana (the new President of PSD) has what it takes to won the battle?

Do you think that DA will obtain easy it’s wanted majority without the precious support from Mr President Basescu?

Do you think that this is a good moment for a United ‘right’ in the Romanian political scene? Do you think that the Popular Parties will join forces?

What do you expect to be the next almost ‘desperate’ move of Voiculescu? Will he join forces with DA or will he have the big balls to enter the Electoral Campaign on his own? Or maybe again with PSD?

“Romania Mare” The Greater Romania Party has the power to obtain more than 10%?

And what about Gigi Becali’s “New Generation” Party ? More or less than 2 %?

It’s summer and… we’re starting to boil again…

I’m sure you already know or at least you suspect the fact that I am a DA supporter and especially a supporter of Mr Traian Basescu…

Well, YES I am (Pai, nu? Pai, DA!), and I am still proud to recognize it! You can read my posts from December 2004 to understand why.

And as a supporter of the Justice and Truth Alliance… I believe that the top priority in our country is a credible, 'clean', modren, true and fair Justice system…

IT IS the TIME for JUSTICE and the Time for TRUTH…
God Bless Romania!
