with Adrian Nastase on Jul 19, 2004
Adrian Nãstase is a Romanian politician who was the Prime Minister of Romania from December 2000 to December 2004. His four years as Prime Minister were characterized by unprecedented political stability in post-communist Romania, continuous economic growth, and a foreign policy strongly oriented toward the West. Romania joined NATO and committed troops in support of international efforts in the Balkans, Afghanistan, and Iraq.
He competed as the Social Democratic Party (PSD) candidate in the 2004 presidential election, but was defeated by centre-right Justice and Truth (DA) Alliance candidate Traian Bãsescu.
He was the President of the Chamber of Deputies from December 21, 2004 until 15 March 2006, when he resigned due to corruption charges.
