More on Democratic Party
Description from Wikipedia:
The Democratic Party (Romanian: Partidul Democrat, PD) was a centre-right party of Romania. In January 2008, it merged with the Liberal Democratic Party to form the Democratic Liberal Party. From 2004 to 2007 it was the smaller party of the governing Justice and Truth Alliance, although according to many Romanian opinion polls it remains the most popular of the two parties. Although he had to formally suspend his leadership of the party when elected president in 2004, the PD is largely associated with Romanian president Traian Băsescu, who was previously leader of the party as well as being a founding member. The PD executive leadership has already stated publicly that it would support Băsescu's candidacy for Romania's next presidential elections. The party has also worked to ensure that its positions in the parliament reflect Băsescu's priorities.
PD traces its roots in the National Salvation Front (FSN), one of the first political parties to emerge after the Romanian Revolution of 1989 which ended the Communist regime. Conflicts broke out between FSN leaders Ion Iliescu and Petre Roman in early 1992, and this led to the separation of the Iliescu wing under the name of Democratic National Salvation Front (FDSN), which later became the Social Democratic Party (PSD).
However, due to their alliances with the National Liberal Party, and the Democratic Union of Hungarians in Romania, the Democratic Party was part of the governing coalition until April 2007.
