The Romanian government on Wednesday managed to survive a no-confidence vote. A motion tabled by the opposition Social Democrat Party (PSD) failed to win enough support. Of 462 MPs, 220 voted in favor of the motion. A total of 232 votes would have been needed to topple the center-right minority government. Romania avoids political crisis The PSD, supported by two other opposition parties, accused the government of inefficiency and warned that pensioners, farmers, teachers and healthcare workers all now face potential problems as a result of government policies. They also accused the center-right government of "failure in reforming justice and developing a clear foreign policy strategy". The government - which is based on just two parties, the Liberals and the Hungarian Union - rejected the opposition's claims. Prime Minister Calin Popescu Tariceanu's administration now faces serious difficulties as it needs opposition support to pass essential legislation, including next year's budget. Tariceanu's Liberal Party controls just 20 percent of the seats in Parliament. Romania's political parties have been locked in conflict for most of this year following a split in the ranks of the former governing alliance of the centre-right Liberals and the centrist Democratic Party, PD. The Democrats left the government after five parties, including Tariceanu's Liberals, launched a national referendum to remove President Traian Basescu from office over alleged constitutional abuses. Basescu, the former leader of the PD, easily beat off the attempt to oust him after voters backed him overwhelmingly in the April referendum.
