In Eastern Europe, Communism has collapsed, but the communists are still around

Does anyone know what the situation is in Romania?

Are the Communists still a significant power in the government, or did the execution of the Ceausescus on Christmas 1989 after a couple of weeks of fighting put them in a much weaker position there?

I don't know about the exact situation in Romania, but the sad fact is that there exists no country that got rid of the commies the way Germany got rid of the National Socialists. The heirs of the communists are major players in the Czech Republic and in Poland, as well. Their policies are not communist now, but they are still socialist.
