Mongolia in Limbo After Premier Loses Confidence Vote

Resource-rich Mongolia will have as long as a month in political limbo following the ouster of the former Prime Minister Altankhuyag Norov yesterday after a collapse in foreign investment.

The ruling Democratic Party has 30 days to find a permanent replacement, Oyungerel Tsedevdamba, a government lawmaker said by phone. Deputy Prime Minister Terbishdagva Dendev is acting as prime minister until a replacement is named.
