BELGIUM-POLITICS-ROMPUY
Herman Van Rompuy (L) is sworn in by Belgium King Albert II (R) on December 30, 2008 in Brussels. Flemish Christian Democrat Herman Van Rompuy was appointed Belgium's new prime minister today, the royal palace announced, after he reached agreement on continuing a five-party coalition government. The move to form a government came 11 days after Prime Minister Yves Leterme, a fellow Flemish Christian Democrat, stepped down in the so-called "Fortisgate" scandal, with his aides accused of trying to influence a court case linked to the break-up of the major bank Fortis.
