Romanian President Klaus Iohannis appointed Social Democrat Mihai Tudose as the Prime Minister and
mandated him to form a new government. Mihai Tudose, the outgoing
economy minister of Romania, has been appointed as prime minister, days
after the ruling Social Democrat Party (PSD) removed its own government
following an internal power row.
The 50-year-old Tudose now has 10 days to gain the vote of confidence in his government and his program.
