Romania’s opposition social democrats, liberals and conservatives have submitted a no-confidence motion in Parliament Monday, in a bid to overthrow the coalition government of democrat liberals and the Hungarian minority party.

The motion bears the signatures of 209 lawmakers, said Mircea Dusa, leader of the social democrat group in the Chamber of Deputies, who submitted the document.

The opposition needs the votes of at least 236 lawmakers of the 471-seat Parliament to oust the Government. Opposition parties currently have a total 214 seats in Parliament.
