Government in Romania falls
146
The parliament in Romania stops the government. The majority of politicians vote against leader Ilie Bolojan. 281 members vote for this. Only 233 votes were needed. The parties PSD and AUR made the request. They think the plan of Bolojan is bad.
Bolojan wants to save money. He wants to raise taxes. He wants to sell parts of state firms. This is called a part privatization. He wants to lower the deficit. A deficit means: The state spends more money than it earns. He wants money from the EU. The party PSD helped him first. Then they started to fight.
Now state president Nicusor Dan seeks a new leader. This is very hard. The parties do not agree. Bolojan stays in his office for now. He can not make new laws. He works for a short time only. Maybe there are new elections soon.
