United Kingdom Key Belgian party leader rules out early elections
Published on 08/07/2011
The French-speaking leader of Belgium's socialist party on Friday ruled out early elections despite a failed bid to end the crisis that has deprived the country of a government for nearly 13 months.
“I don’t want elections because it would be even worse,” Elio Di Rupo told RTL-TVI. “The radicalisation would be even stronger.”
“It would resolve nothing,” he told RTBF a little later Friday.
“Tomorrow it will be even more complicated to find a solution,” he added.
