“It is the time for important political decisions. That is why I made the decision to give up the government’s mandate,” Boc said after a government meeting.

In January, several anti-government demonstrations were held in Romania where the demonstrators demanded the resignation of President Traian Basescu and Boc.

The discontent of Romania’s citizens, which is a member of European Union, has been caused by the government’s decision to carry out a programme of budget cuts, which includes a reduction in social programmes.
