Romanian Prime Minister Calin Tariceanu restated Tuesday that local elections will not be moved up or postponed and will be organized at a date so as not to overlap with Easter or the European Football Championship.

"I want voters to have the chance to focus on the issues to be debated in the election campaign," Tariceanu said.
 
On Friday, Tariceanu said the introduction of the uninominal voting system could lead to organizing parliament and local elections at the same time, but the government is considering moving up parliament elections.
 
Tariceanu repeatedly said he is not considering postponing local elections, scheduled for this summer and the only concern would be not to overlap elections with the European Football Championship.
