BUCHAREST, Romania, April 27, 2018 (AP) - Romania's president on Friday called on the prime minister to resign, saying she is unfit for the job. President Klaus Iohannis said that Viorica Dancila "is not up for the job of Romanian prime minister," three months after she became Romania's first female premier this January. Iohannis said that she "prefers to execute party orders" and represented "a vulnerability" for Romania. He was referring to her political dependence on the leader of the ruling Social Democrats, Liviu Dragnea, who effectively runs the government. Iohannis also accused her of failing to inform him over a unilateral government proposal to relocate Romania's embassy to Jerusalem. Iohannis is in charge of foreign policy and would make a final decision on the embassy. He doesn't have the authority to fire Dancila, but his request will put pressure on the government.
