2020–2024 legislature of the Romanian Parliament
current legislature of the Parliament of Romania
The 2020–2024 legislature of the Romanian Parliament was legislature of the Parliament of Romania, elected on 6 December 2020. In the said election, no party won an outright majority, but the Social Democratic Party (PSD) remained the largest political force in the parliament, in opposition however. The National Liberal Party (PNL), the Save Romania Union (USR), and the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania (UDMR/RMDSZ) formed a coalition government. The USR ran within a political alliance it established with a smaller party, more specifically the Freedom, Unity and Solidarity Party (PLUS), which was eventually absorbed by the former. The Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR) entered parliament starting this legislature with an unexpected high score, gaining more popularity ever since.
The PNL-USR-PLUS-UDMR/RMDSZ coalition was dissolved in early September 2021 following dispute over the so-called Anghel Saligny program and subsequent ousting of Justice Minister Stelian Ion (USR) by Prime Minister Florin Cîțu (PNL). This led to a months-long political crisis until the National Coalition for Romania (consisting of PSD, PNL, and UDMR/RMDSZ) was formed in late November 2021, forming the incumbent Ciucă Cabinet. The crisis also led to a PNL splinter, more specifically the Force of the Right (FD).
Chamber of Deputies
The President of the Chamber of Deputies for this legislature was initially Ludovic Orban (PNL) from December 2020 until his resignation in October 2021. Since 23 November 2021, the office had been held by Marcel Ciolacu (PSD).
