In a TV intervention on Monday evening, Romanian president Traian Basescu said that several politicians - including the Conservative leader Dan Voiculescu, the Social-Democrat president Mircea Geoana and the Social Democrat "master of puppets", Viorel Hrebenciuc - prepare a coup d’état. Basescu says that the two parties want to suspend him from the office, so that they can name their own prime minister after the general elections on November 31.
