The Left Party got an agreement on influence with the Social Democrats, but it contributed to the right-wing opposition's budget going through.
However, the Left Party claims that they have no responsibility for the parliamentary turmoil that has arisen.
- The Center Party has started a budget circus during the past week which I have a hard time understanding, says the Left Party's leader Nooshi Dadgostar.
She believes that the Left Party agreed to the Center Party's demands when negotiating with the Social Democrats.
- We sat and negotiated about this and the fact is that we - about the Prime Minister's vote, not about the budget - we have adhered to all the wild rules that the Center Party set up this autumn.
The budget has not been officially negotiated with the Left Party.
