BUCHAREST (Reuters) - Romania's centrist Prime Minister Florin Citu sacked his justice minister Stelian Ion on Wednesday, accusing the junior government partner of undermining local communities' development plans, a move that could threaten reform.
A rupture in the coalition made of Citu's Liberal Party, Ion's USR and the ethnic Hungarians group, which jointly control 56% of parliament, could endanger the government's agenda to curb twin deficits and fight the pandemic, leaving it without a majority and prone to concessions.
