President Nicușor Dan has announced his intention to propose a civilian director at the SRI, but his prioritization remains the budget deficit

Nicușor Dan, Romania's newly sworn-in president, said he will propose a civilian director for the SRI, noting that Parliament will approve the appointment. However, he stressed that his main focus at the moment is the budget deficit. The SRI has been without a civilian director for almost two years, and Dan added that the details of his working team will be decided after the financial problems have been resolved.
