AUR is Romania’s far-right party driving nationalist-stoked rhetoric; current headlines follow Ilie Bolojan’s fall and a confidence vote erosion amid austerity and a surge of far-right support.
Romania's pro‑European coalition has collapsed after the Social Democrats (PSD) joined the far‑right AUR to pass a no‑confidence motion that has removed Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan. The motion has received 281 votes in the 464‑seat parliament; PNL, USR and UDMR deputies have abstained from voting.
