The Ciolacu Cabinet is the 133rd and current government of Romania since 15 June 2023, led by Marcel Ciolacu, who is also the current leader of the Social Democratic Party (PSD).[1]

The cabinet is the result of a delayed rotation between Nicolae Ciucă (who led the previous cabinet) and Ciolacu, as part of the protocol of the governing National Coalition for Romania (Romanian: Coaliția Națională pentru România, CNR), of which members are the Social Democratic Party (PSD) and the National Liberal Party (PNL).[1][2]
