  • Romanian Prime Minister Florin Citu will face a vote of confidence in parliament Tuesday, with the opposition accusing the pro-EU government of "leading the country into the abyss". Ex-banker Citu and his cabinet were sworn in last December following parliamentary elections in which the Social Democratic Party (PSD) came first but failed to find allies to govern, opening the door to Citu's liberal PNL-led coalition government. In order to be successful, the no-confidence motion must garner 234 votes, a scenario seen as unlikely by analysts. The PSD and the nationalist AUR party, which back the motion, have a total of 205 seats. The debate was due to begin at 1100 GMT, with the vote taking place in the evening. The opposition accuses the government, which also includes the reformist party USR-Plus, of "impoverishing" Romanians by freezing wages and pensions after it slashed a PSD-promised doubling of pensions to rein in debt. Romania, which is among the poorest countries in the EU, is under fire from Brussels for running excessive deficits. The economy, hit hard by the pandemic, shrank 3.9 percent in 2020, its worst annual contraction since 2009. But with coronavirus restrictions easing, the European Commission and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have revised upwards their growth forecasts to between 5.1 percent and 6 percent for 2021. Analysts, however, warn of the risks to the economy in the event of a fourth wave of Covid-19, which could strike in a few months' time as the vaccination campaign stalls. Only 4.5 million Romanians have so far been immunised out of a total population of 19 million. While many Romanians are hesitant to be vaccinated, critics say the government has also failed to encourage people to get their shots. mr-ii/jza/kjl
