President Klaus Iohannis call politicians to consultations at Cotroceni

President Klaus Iohannis notified the Constitutional Court of Romania (CCR) in regards to legal conflict between the Government on the one hand, and the justice system and the Parliament, on the other hand, in the matter of emergency ordinance amending the Criminal Codes. The President argues, inter alia, that the government intervened unlawful by issuing the act, because the emergency of the measure is not supported. In an attempt to defuse the political crisis and street protests the President asked Prime Minister Sorin Grindeanu to repeal the controversial ordinance. Klaus Iohannis: „I have to invite people to Cotroceni to find a solution to this crisis because otherwise things get worse and the street can protest, Romanians say their grievances, but the solutions can not come from the street, solutions must come from politicians and certainly I will invite them next week to present me the solutions„.
