The Second Ciolacu Cabinet was the 134th government of Romania, from 23 December 2024 to 23 June 2025. The government was led by Marcel Ciolacu who was the leader of the Social Democratic Party (PSD) until his resignation in 2025 and the withdrawal of support for the government by his party. Cătălin Predoiu was appointed to lead the government in acting capacity on 6 May.[1]

The cabinet was the result of the Coalition talks following the 2024 Romanian legislative election.

Following the results of the 2025 Romanian presidential election, Marcel Ciolacu announced that PSD would leave Romania Forward Alliance (A.RO), and resigned from the position of Prime Minister, which resulted in the collapse of the coalition.[2]
