The White House warned on Wednesday that the availability of federal employees are imminent, on the first day of the “closure” of the Government, even though JD Vance Vice -President insisted that no final decision was made, writes Reuters.

The spokeswoman for the White House, Karoline Leavitt, said in front of reporters that government agencies are already preparing for positions.

“Unfortunately, because the Democrats blocked the activity of the Government, the president gave instructions to his office, and the management and budget office collaborates with agencies in all fields to identify where discounts can be made and we believe that the dismissals are imminent,” said Leavitt.

Vance acknowledged that the situation could quickly degenerate into dismissals if the “shutdown” (or “budgetary paralysis”) continues, even if he said that no final decision was made regarding the dismissal or suspension of certain employees.

“First of all, we did not make any final decision on what we will do with certain employees,” Press Vance told Press.

The US government suspended a large part of its activities on Wednesday morning, because the deep misunderstandings between the parties prevented Congress and the White House from reaching an agreement on the financing from the budget. The so -called government “shutdown” came into effect at midnight in the US (07:00 in Romania).

Analysts and experts anticipate the temporary dismissal of hundreds of thousands of civil servants, and for users of public services are expected major disturbances – an extremely unpopular situation in the United States, unprecedented in the last seven years, for which the two main parties – Democrats and Republicans – pass each other.

Democrats “want to close everything, not us,” said President Donald Trump on Tuesday afternoon.
