Provisional Council of National Unity

The Provisional Council of National Unity (PCNU; Romanian: Consiliul Provizoriu de Uniune Națională, CPUN) was a provisional governmental body during the early 1990s in Romania. At that time, it was headed by Ion Iliescu of the National Salvation Front (FSN) along with a wide range of vice-presidents which also stemmed from various other political parties which acceded to the Romanian Parliament at that time, most notably Radu Câmpeanu, the first post-1989 president of the National Liberal Party (PNL), who was also vice-president of the Senate at the time.
