Moldova prime minister succession

Entities: Vasile Tofan · Dan Perciun · Alexandru Munteanu · Moldova

Overview

In early July, Education Minister Dan Perciun said the ruling Action and Solidarity Party would select the next prime minister after Alexandru Munteanu’s resignation, outlining the qualities required for the post and noting that he was not a candidate.

Later in July, Perciun suggested that a tense meeting he had with Munteanu might have contributed to the former premier’s departure. He then reported the formation of a new government headed by Vasile Tofan, which secured a parliamentary confidence vote and was backed by the PAS‑led coalition, which also presented a three‑year programme for an “efficient state” and a European‑oriented economy.
