Under Iliescu's first freely elected term, a new constitution was approved by popular referendum. This constitution replaced the 1965 socialist constitution and marked a significant shift towards democracy and political liberalization in Romania. It introduced a multi-party system, guaranteed fundamental rights and freedoms, and established a semi-presidential republic. The new constitution laid the foundation for Romania's post-communist transition and its integration into the European Union.
