Reshuffle.<\/strong> The leadership of the
\nSocial Democratic Party, the senior partner in the ruling coalition in
\nBucharest, will begin talks on a government reshuffle. The talks may last a few
\nweeks, with the performance of each ministry being evaluated during this time,
\nexplained the party’s new leader, prime minister Viorica Dancila. She said the
\nreshuffle may be accompanied by a government restructuring. As for the Social
\nDemocrats’ candidate in the presidential elections this autumn, his or her name
\nwill be established based on opinion polls and will be announced in the first
\npart of August. We recall that prime minister Dancila took over the leadership
\nof the party after the former leader Liviu Dragnea was sent to prison for acts
\nof corruption on the 27th of May. A day earlier, the Social Democratic
\nParty had lost the European elections to the National Liberal Party in opposition,
\nwhile its junior partner in the ruling coalition, the Alliance of Liberals and
\nDemocrats, fell below the required 5% threshold. <\/p>\n

Justice Day.<\/strong> Romania’s president
\nKlaus Iohannis said in a message on Justice Day on Sunday that recent years
\nhave been marked by repeated attempts to subordinate the judiciary to politics through
\nsudden changes to the laws on the organisation of the judiciary, the status of
\nmagistrates and the criminal legislation, but that this attack has been met
\nwith a prompt reaction from citizens and magistrates. Justice minister Ana
\nBirchall has also conveyed a message saying citizens’ respect and trust must be
\nearned back. She also said that the future of the Romanian judiciary can only
\nbe in Europe and the Transatlantic family, and this means assimilating the
\nvalues, principles and standards these partnerships imply. Established 25 years
\nago, Justice Day is celebrated every year on the first Sunday in July. <\/p>\n

Protest.<\/strong> Around 100 people staged a
\nprotest on Sunday in Bucharest against the adoption by the government formed by
\nthe Social Democratic Party and the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats of the
\nnew administrative code by emergency order. Protesters say the order was issued
\nunder pressure from the Democratic Union of Ethnic Hungarians in Romania and
\nthe neighbouring Hungary and that it is an act of national betrayal. They
\nclaim the code leads to the dissolution of the authority of the state in areas
\nof the country with a small ethnic Romanian population and facilitates autonomy
\non ethnic grounds, a goal publicly stated by the Democratic Union of Ethnic
\nHungarians in Romania. Earlier, however, the code had come under harsh
\ncriticism from Hungarian officials and the Union, who said it diminishes the
\nrights of the minorities and hinders the decentralisation process. President
\nKlaus Iohannis believes the adoption of the document by emergency order is an
\nattack on the entire administrative system in Romania. The Save Romania Union,
\nin opposition, says the code will deteriorate even further the administrative process
\nat a local level. The Social Democrat deputy prime minister Daniel Suciu says
\nthe new code is not perfect, but that it will be improved in Parliament. <\/p>\n

Diaspora.<\/strong> By the end of August,
\n3,000 pupils, students and teachers from the ethnic Romanian communities in the
\nneighbouring countries and around the world have a change to enhance their
\nknowledge of Romanian culture and civilisation in a series of special camps.
\nThe programme is organised by the ministry for Romanians abroad and the
\nministry for youth and sports and takes place at four locations: Sulina, in
\nTulcea county, in the Danube Delta, in the south-east; Oglinzi, in Neamt
\ncounty, in the north-east; in Sacelu, in Gorj county; and Caprioara, in
\nHunedoara county, both in the south-west. The participants come from the
\nhistorical ethnic Romanian communities in the Republic of Moldova (with a
\nmajority Romanian-speaking population), including Transnistria, Serbia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Albania, North Macedonia
\nand Hungary, as well as from the diaspora, from Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal,
\nthe UK, France, Germany, Canada, the US, Australia and the United Arab Emirates.
\nThe Romanian minister for Romanians abroad Natalia Intotero says the goal of
\nthese camps is to increase awareness with respect to belonging to the Romanian
\nidentity, enhance knowledge of Romanian language, facilitate interaction and
\ndialogue and promote Romania’s image.<\/p>\n
