Romanian Prime Minister Ciolacu resigns, Social Democratic Party exits ruling coalition.

Golden Ten Data on May 6, the Romanian Social Democratic Party withdrew from the ruling coalition on the 5th, and the prime minister of the party, Choraku, announced his resignation. The Romanian ruling coalition was formed in December last year with two goals, namely to ensure the stability of the government and elect a candidate who could win Romania's general election, but one of them failed to be achieved, Choraku said. The results of the first round of the presidential election mean that the current ruling coalition lacks legitimacy. According to the preliminary results of the first round of voting in Romania's presidential election, the candidate of the ruling coalition, Klin Antonescu, narrowly came in third and failed to enter the second round of voting. Joraku said members of the Social Democrats, who are ministers in the current government, will hold discussions with the coalition to decide whether to stay in office for the time being. At the same time, he said that the Social Democrats would not support any candidate in the second round.
