Romania's government fell today after the ruling party took the unusual step of passing a no-confidence vote in its own Prime Minister following internal power struggles. <br/><br/>The left-wing Social Democrat Party (PSD) filed the motion against Premier Sorin Grindeanu barely six months after winning a thumping election victory. <br/><br/>The PSD unexpectedly withdrew its support for Grindeanu on June 14, accusing him of delays in implementing reforms in the European Union's second-poorest country. <br/><br/>Grindeanu however refused to resign and denounced powerful PSD boss Liviu Dragnea for seeking to concentrate all the power in his hands. Today's no-confidence motion passed with 241 to 10 votes.<br/><br/>The PSD and its ALDE coalition party are now expected to propose a new Premier to centre-right President Klaus Iohannis. The new Prime Minister will then have 10 days to secure a vote of confidence in Parliament for his cabinet and policy plans.
