The vote was secret and was held after three new&#13;<br \/>\njudges were sworn in before president Klaus Iohannis. Enache was first&#13;<br \/>\nappointed a Constitutional Court judge by the Senate in 2016, having previously&#13;<br \/>\nserved as a member of Parliament from the Social Democratic Party and an&#13;<br \/>\nambassador to the Republic of Moldova between 1993 and 1996. During the&#13;<br \/>\nswearing in ceremony, president Klaus Iohannis wished the three new judges, who&#13;<br \/>\nwill serve for 9 years, to make sure the Constitution is respected and act as a&#13;<br \/>\nfactor of equilibrium in Romanian society.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Extradition.<\/strong> Former Romanian tourism minister Elena Udrea will be&#13;<br \/>\nextradited from Bulgaria following a ruling by a Sofia court saying there is no&#13;<br \/>\nevidence that her human rights and liberties would be violated on her return to&#13;<br \/>\nRomania as she had claimed. The Bulgarian court ruling also showed there is no&#13;<br \/>\nquestion mark over the way in which Romanian prosecutors investigated her case,&#13;<br \/>\nwhich Udrea said was politically motivated. She left the country on 7th&#13;<br \/>\nApril before the Supreme Court was about to issue a final sentence convicting&#13;<br \/>\nher to 6 years in prison for bribe taking and abuse of office. She is on trial&#13;<br \/>\nin two other cases. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Benefits.<\/strong> The Romanian Postal Service has begun the distribution of&#13;<br \/>\ncards for the payment of social vouchers worth around 50 euros, with payment to&#13;<br \/>\nbe made after all cards have been distributed, from 20th June, said&#13;<br \/>\nprime minister Nicolae Ciuc\u0103 on the government&#8217;s Facebook page. Three million&#13;<br \/>\npeople, including pensioners, persons with disabilities, families with low&#13;<br \/>\nincomes and homeless people will benefit from these vouchers once every two&#13;<br \/>\nmonths, which they can use to buy food. The total value is some 626 million&#13;<br \/>\neuros and will be granted in four tranches until the end of the year. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Ukraine. <\/strong>The European Commission will&#13;<br \/>\nfinalise its assessment of Ukraine&#8217;s bid to obtain the status of EU candidate&#13;<br \/>\ncountry by next week, said the European Commission president Ursula von der&#13;<br \/>\nLeyen. She made this statement on a trip to Kyiv to meet president Volodymyr&#13;<br \/>\nZelensky, who said a positive answer would be a historic moment for Europe.  On the ground, the situation has become dramatic in the Azov Sea&#13;<br \/>\nport of Mariupol, where over 20,000 inhabitants were killed and the lack of&#13;<br \/>\nhygienic conditions and food has increased the risk of epidemics, especially&#13;<br \/>\ndysentery and cholera. The city&#8217;s mayor called on the United Nations and the&#13;<br \/>\nRed Cross to create a humanitarian corridor to evacuate the civilians. The&#13;<br \/>\nfighting continues in the east, with Ukrainian officials requesting more help&#13;<br \/>\nfrom the West, including faster deliveries of weapons to halt the advance of&#13;<br \/>\nthe better equipped Russian forces. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong class=cms-bold>Visit.<\/strong>&#13;<br \/>\nFrench president Emmanuel Macron is travelling to Bucharest on Tuesday to&#13;<br \/>\nexpress France&#8217;s solidarity with its European allies most exposed to the war in&#13;<br \/>\nUkraine, said the French president&#8217;s office. He is expected to visit the French&#13;<br \/>\ntroops stationed in Cincu, in the centre. The NATO Battle&#13;<br \/>\nGroup Forward Presence was created in May in Romania. The group is led by&#13;<br \/>\nFrance, which also has an air defence component in Romania. This is the third&#13;<br \/>\nvisit to Romania by the French president, and the first since winning his&#13;<br \/>\nsecond term on 24th April. On Wednesday, he will travel to the&#13;<br \/>\nneighbouring Republic of Moldova to reiterate support for this country affected&#13;<br \/>\nby the war in Ukraine. Macron has tried to maintain a dialogue with Vladimir&#13;<br \/>\nPutin since Russia&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine in February, but his position has come&#13;<br \/>\nunder repeated criticism from some European partners, who see his engagement&#13;<br \/>\nwith Putin as undermining efforts to bring the Russian president to the negotiation&#13;<br \/>\ntable.
