Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Ciuca resigned from his post, he said on Monday, as part of a rotating premiership ruling coalition deal meant to ensure political stability but which has stalled policymaking and delayed European Union recovery funds.

Ciuca’s centre-right Liberals and their former rivals, the leftist Social Democrats formed a grand coalition government in late 2021 together with a junior partner, the ethnic Hungarian UDMR, and agreed that the two main parties will rotate premiers.

“Our objective is to have a new government sworn in by Thursday,” Ciuca told reporters.
