\nwill hold a vote on the Liberal government proposed by the prime minister
\ndesignate Ludovic Orban. 233 yes votes are needed for the new government to
\ntake office. To secure this outcome, Orban has concluded political agreements
\nand deals with the Save Romania Union, the Democratic Union of Ethnic
\nHungarians in Romania, the People’s Movement Party, the Alliance of Liberals
\nand Democrats and the group of ethnic minorities. The Social Democratic Party
\nand the Pro Romania party both said their members would be absent from the
\nvote. Orban’s cabinet would replace Viorica Dancila’s Social Democratic
\ngovernment which was brought down following a no-confidence vote. Ludovic Orban

Protest.<\/strong> Miners from two mines in the Jiu Valley, in the

\nwho have barricaded themselves underground, say they will not give in unless
\ntheir demands are met. The miners, who are about to lose their jobs at the
\nbeginning of next year when the mine closes, want the same type of social
\nprotection as the miners laid off so far. They demand the passing of an
\nemergency order by the government to guarantee a monthly income for the next two
\nyears and other rights. Their representatives will have talks on Monday with
\nthe outgoing prime minister Viorica Dancila and the incumbent energy ministrer in an attempt to find a solution. The process to close the two mines began at
