After the political vote in Parliament for the support of Klaus Johannis as Prime-Minister, Traian Băsescu declared that this vote is, in fact, against the referendum for the decrease of the number of parliamentaries, that will be organized same time with the presidential election.
The referendum ask for the decrease of the number of parliamentaries from 471 to 300, with a single parliamentary chamber. Traian Băsescu asked the parties that support Klaus Johannis as Prime-Minister to register officially the alliance at the Tribunal: "I didn't see that they registered to Tribunal. They make a confusion about the institutions that officialize the coalitions. They have to take care that the parliamentary alliances can be broken...", said Traian Băsescu.
This year the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Barack Obama "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples". The Nobel Prize Committee said that "His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population".
"If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer." (Barack Obama's victory speech)
