Emil Boc Confirmed as Romania’s Prime Minister

Romania took another important step towards a seamless transition of power when Prime Minister Delegate, Emil Boc, was validated through a vote of confidence by the Romanian Parliament on the 22nd December, 2008.

Romania’s parliamentary elections were held in November 2008 and the result gave Boc’s Democratic Liberal Party (PD-L) a slight lead over the second place Social Democratic Party (PSD), while the ruling National Democratic Party (PNL) finished a distant third.

Because no single party won an outright majority, President Traian Basescu was called upon to name a prime minister, as dictated by the country’s constitution. Basescu originally nominated Theodor Stolojan but Stolojan later refused the post for personal reasons and the president nominated Boc. Boc was not only president of the PD-L but until recently, was also mayor of the Transylvanian city of Cluj-Napoca.

While mayor of Cluj-Napoca, one of Romania’s fastest growing economic centres, Boc was very popular with Romanians and foreign investors alike. James Gonzalez, Market Analyst at Obelisk, has met Prime Minister Boc on numerous occasions and believes that he is an excellent choice to lead Romania during today’s economic times. “During our discussions, I found Emil Boc to be an intelligent, driven leader who not only understands the needs of Romanians but also the importance of reliable foreign investment. I couldn’t think of a better person to assume the prime ministerial role.”

Boc now heads a government comprising of the two largest parties in Romania. His validation by parliament means that the country will have a stable coalition government until the next elections, which are scheduled for 2012.
