Prime Minister Vasile Tofan has assessed his first 100 days in office, identifying public support as the government's main outstanding issue. The administration is reportedly preparing labor code amendments and staff reductions to address concerns over national bankruptcy and the country's financial stability. The opposition has responded to the government's performance with threats of a no-confidence vote. Former President Igor Dodon and the Party of Socialists have demanded the Prime Minister report to Parliament. Meanwhile, a new fraud scheme has emerged involving individuals who impersonated State Security Service employees to trick victims out of millions of euros. A 'Gerbera' drone discovered in a forest near Gordinești was confirmed to be carrying no explosives. The government is also discussing potential visa requirements for Russian, Belarusian, and Chinese citizens to align with EU policies. Additionally, the independent outlet Agora announced it will move exclusively to social media platforms starting in May 2026.
