Thousands of Romanians Protest - 'We want him out!'

Romania is in the grip of its worst protests in over a decade. For the second week running, amid outbreaks of violence, demonstrators have taken a stand against a government they say has brought in low wages, cuts and rising corruption.

At least 7,000 people took to the streets of Bucharest on Thursday to demand the resignation of the country's government and its president, Traian Basescu.

The protests that have been raging since last Sunday have already left at least 60 people injured. On Thursday alone, about 100 people were questioned by the police on suspicion of throwing stones and using iron fences to attack police lines.
