BUCHAREST, May 5 (Xinhua) -- Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu announced his resignation on Monday at the headquarters of the Social Democratic Party (PSD).
The announcement comes as Romania's ruling PSD declared its decision to withdraw from the governing coalition.
While the transition is underway, PSD ministers will remain in their positions temporarily as discussions continue with coalition partners - the National Liberal Party (PNL) and the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania (UDMR) - to establish interim governance arrangements, according to Ciolacu. ■
