Mongolian Prime Minister removed by Parliament
The Mongolian Parliament on Thursday voted to oust Prime Minister Jargaltulga Erdenebat over alleged incompetence and corruption related to the signing of government contracts with companies linked to three Cabinet members. Out of the 73 legislators that attended the vote, 42 voted in favour of Erdenebat's removal. Notably, no Mongolian prime minister has completed the four-year term since 2004.
