Romanian President Traian Basescu submitted a complaint at the Constitutional Court on Tuesday against law on the statute of parliamentarians, claiming it was unconstitutional as long as it guarantees certain "excessive" privileges to current and former MPs.
The address says the law, recently approved by parliamentarians, breach the Romanian Constitution, specifically the articles regarding the equal, undiscriminated rights of all citizens.

The law, initially rejected by the President but renewed in Parliament, provides improved pensions and supplementary incomes for parliamentarians once they leave office.
