About this episode

Romania's pro-European government was ousted in a no-confidence vote, impacting the country's debt ratings and EU funds.

Romanian Prime Minister Ilie Bolojans pro-European government was ousted in a no-confidence vote, threatening the countrys debt ratings and EU funds. The Social Democrats, the biggest party in parliament, teamed up with far-right opposition to force the vote. Markets reacted negatively, sending the leu to a record low against the euro. Bolojan remains interim prime minister, and Romania must shrink its deficit and push reforms to unlock EU recovery funds. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
