Romania's government collapsed Feb. 6 following weeks of protests against austerity measures, the latest debt-stricken government in Europe to fall in the face of raising public anger over biting cuts. Emil Boc, who had been prime minister since 2008, said he was resigning "to defuse political and social tension" and to make way for a new government

The resignation comes after weeks of protests in Romania over austerity measures that Boc introduced in 2010, and opposition politicians are calling for early parliamentary elections, which are currently scheduled for November

Protesters celebrate the resignation of Romanian Prime Minister Emil Boc in Bucharest February 6, 2012. Romanian Prime Minister Emil Boc resigned on Monday, joining a list of European leaders felled by fury at the kind of spending cuts that prompted weeks of mass protests in Bucharest against IMF-backed austerity. The message on the protester's clothes read: "wake up (you) Romanian", a reference to the first verse of their national anthem, and "unity, solidarity, we take Romania back".
