Romania’s centrist opposition is filing a no-confidence motion against the government over a decree to decriminalize certain graft offences, the leader of the National Liberal Party (PNL) said on Wednesday. “We gathered the needed number of signatures to back it, together with the USR (Save Romania Union),” PNL leader Raluca Turcan said. The Social Democrat-led government of Prime Minister Sorin Grindeanu, which holds a comfortable majority in parliament, is expected to survive the vote, due to be hold sometime next week. Earlier in the day, the country’s top judicial watchdog announced a court challenge against the decree that critics say is the biggest retreat on reforms since the country joined the EU a decade ago.
