The first Tăriceanu cabinet was the cabinet of the government of Romania led by former PNL leader Călin Popescu-Tăriceanu between 29 December 2004 and 5 April 2007. It succeeded the Năstase cabinet and was succeeded by the second Tăriceanu cabinet.
It was a coalition government which was formed by the National Liberal Party (PNL), the Democratic Party (PD), the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania (UDMR), and the Romanian Humanist Party/Conservative Party (PUR/PC).
Additionally, it also consisted of three Ministers of State (one for each party of the coalition, except for the National Liberal Party, which held the position of Prime Minister), 15 Ministers, and 6 Ministers Delegate.
In early December 2006, the Conservative Party withdrew from the coalition.[1] As a result, the Conservative Party's Minister Delegate post was dissolved and the other Conservative Party's posts were re-shuffled between the National Liberal Party (PNL) and the Democratic Party (PD).
