The liberalization of election laws, also in 1925, benefited communist candidates even though the Japan Communist Party itself was banned.
Calls were raised for universal suffrage and the dismantling of the old political party network.

 CER Curing the Past
The nationalist revival was seen in last November's general elections when Corneliu Vadim Tudor, the leader of the right wing Greater Romania Party (PRM), entered the second round of the presidential elections.

 Postsocialist Romania
The Romanian government would either grant the dissenters the freedom to leave or they would imprison them.

 CESNUR 2004 - Cinderella goes to market: The Religious Situation in Post-Communist Romania , by Lucian Turcescu
Since no new legislation has been passed in this regard, the State Secretariat stated that the registration of any new religion is not possible.
The State Secretariat for Religious Denominations stated for a long time that its impossibility to recognize new religions was due to provisions of Decree 177 of 1948, which stipulates the recognition of religious denominations by a decree issued by the Presidium of the Grand National Assembly, a Communist era institution that no longer exists.
The Government has refused to register a number of religious groups, and the only religious group that has received status as a religion since 1990 is Jehovah’s Witnesses (Minister Order no. 2657 of 22 May 2003).
