[en] The year 2014 was characterised by the European elections and the difficult first steps of
the three-party coalition headed by the Liberal Xavier Bettel. Some popular resentment
for having excluded the Christian Social People’s Party (CSV) from government, the poor
election returns for the governing parties at the European elections, critiques regarding
its governing methods as well as its first budget cuts, and growing tensions in view of the
referendum planned for 2015, all contributed to give the new government a very short
honeymoon period.
