BUCHAREST, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Romanian President Klaus Iohannis appointed Social Democrat nominee, European lawmaker Viorica Dancila, as prime minister on Wednesday and handed her a mandate to form a new government.
Dancila will become the first woman prime minister in the history of the Eastern European country.
Iohannis made the decision after consultations earlier Wednesday with parliamentary parties when main opposition parties had neither concrete proposals for the prime minister's position Cheap Hydro Flask Ombre , nor a political understanding between them.
"Having weighed all arguments, taking into account the concrete situation in Parliament, I have decided to give the Social Democratic Party (PSD) one more chance," said the president, stressing that now the Social Democrats must show a strong performance, as "Romanians have great expectations Cheap Hydro Flask Bottle , I have great expectations as well."
The president called on those involved in forming the government to get moving so that the entire procedure can be completed by Feb. 1.
Under the constitution, Dancila will seek a vote of confidence from Parliament regarding her governing program and complete list of the government within 10 days of her designation.
PSD leader Liviu Dragnea stated after the designation that the president chose stability by appointing Dancila as Prime Minister, "despite the pressure of the opposition parties."
"We thank him for this, and we really appreciate this very much," he said in a press statement.
Dancila, 54 Cheap Hydro Flask Water Bottle , became a member of the PSD in 1996. In 2014, she was elected as deputy in the European Parliament for a second term.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27 (Xinhua) -- French scientists have found that people's biological clock can be a vital factor in fighting inflammatory disease such as fulminant hepatitis, a new study suggests.
Scientists from the National Institute of Health and Medical Research (Inserm), Pasteur Institute of Lille and University of Lille in northern France have worked on the links between biological clock and inflammatory disease.
Through experiments on human cells and mice, they discovered that the anti-inflammatory action of a biological clock protein could block the onset of fulminant hepatitis by easing symptoms and increasing survival rates.
The findings of their study were carried in the latest edition of Gastroenterology.
Fulminant hepatitis is a serious disease that has no effective cure Cheap Hydro Flask 10 OZ , except liver transplant within 24 hours after the onset of its symptoms.
The illness can cause rapid deterioration of tissue ad liver function in patients, in addition to blood coagulation disorders and irreparable brain damage.
The French scientists found a biological clock protein called Rev-erba, which notably targets adipose tissue, together with liver, skeletal muscle and brain cells.
Their experiments on human immune system cells and on mice established the fact that inflammation follows a circadian rhythm.
Test results of mice, which received Rev-erba-activating treatment Cheap Hydro Flask 12 OZ , showed less severe forms of the disease and a higher survival rate.
The French researchers observed the same effect in vitro on human cells, which increased their confidence of developing a new treatment for acute fulminant hepatitis.
