Mongolia PM loses confidence vote, resigns after corruption claims
Mongolian Prime Minister Luvsannamsrai Oyun-Erdene resigned on Tuesday after failing to secure enough support in a confidence vote, a parliamentary statement said. This comes after weeks of public protests against allegations of corruption. Oyun-Erdene received 44 votes in the 126-seat parliament. "It was an honour to serve my country and people in times of difficulties," the 44-year-old said.
