Mongolia has been thrown into fresh political crisis with the country’s prime minister announcing his resignation following weeks of protests sparked by his family’s lavish displays of wealth.

Oyun-Erdene Luvsannamsrain became Mongolia’s Prime Minister in 2021, after gaining prominence by helping to organize mass protests against corruption. Now, after protesters have taken to the streets accusing him of corruption, which he has denied, he’s resigned.

Luvsannamsrain Oyun-Erdene, the Harvard-educated reformist who has led Mongolia since 2021, gained only 44 of the 64 votes he needed from lawmakers in a vote held in the early hours of Tuesday. Oyun-Erdene called the vote last week amid divisions in his party and as protests erupted over his son’s luxury lifestyle.
