Dismissal.<\/strong> For a year Romania has been going
\nthrough a difficult time in the fight against the pandemic and to prevail in
\nthis fight we need to trust state institutions, said Liberal prime minister Florin C\u00ee\u021bu shortly after sacking health minister Vlad
\nVoiculescu, from the Save Romania Union. I strongly believe in the ruling
\ncoalition, which is based around values and ideas and not individual persons,
\nthe prime minister also said. Dan Barna, the co-president of the USR PLUS Alliance, which is part of the ruling coalition alongside the Liberal Party and the Democratic Union of Ethnic Hungarians in Romania, said the prime minister no longer has the Alliance’s political support. Dacian Ciolo\u015f, the other co-president of the USR PLUS Alliance, described as unacceptable that the prime minister did not consult the USR PLUS leadership before sacking the health minister. Deputy prime minister Kelemen Hunor, the leader of the Democratic Union of Ethnic Hungarians, said his party accepted the prime minister’s decision and that the coalition must go ahead. From the opposition, Marcel Ciolacu, the leader of the Social Democratic Party, said Vlad Voiculescu\u0163s dismissal came too late for many Romanians who lost their lives and ruined their health.<\/p>\n

Covid-19 world.<\/strong> As many countries in Eastern Europe are faced
\nwith the third wave of the coronavirus pandemic, Bulgarian hotels and travel agencies
\nare worried that more and more Romanians are cancelling their Easter bookings
\nin the absence of clear rules for entering the country, while Israel’s tourism
\nand health ministries are considering opening borders for groups of foreign
\ntourists at the end of May, on certain conditions. In France, the government
\nhas decided to postpone the local elections because of the pandemic and in
\nAustria, health minister Rudolf Anschober resigned due to exhaustion caused by
\nthe management of the Covid crisis. <\/p>\n

Protests.<\/strong> Trade unions are today staging
\nanti-government protests outside the government headquarters in Bucharest. They
\ndemand a rise in the minimum wage to a decent level, fair pensions, quality
\npublic services, unblocking collective bargaining, fair taxation and a fair
\napplication of the law. Trade unions say they are unhappy with the measures
\ntaken by the government and its refusal to engage in social dialogue and demand
\nits resignation. The gendarmerie recalls that a maximum of 100 persons are
\nallowed to take part in public demonstrations under the current coronavirus
\nrestrictions and have recommended protesters to respect the hygiene and
\nphysical distancing rules in place and wear facemasks. The demonstration, which
\nis organised by several trade unions, is split into different groups so as to
\ncomply with the restrictions. <\/p>\n
