Invited in the program Political Insider, Crin Antonescu, the candidate of the PSD government, PNL, UDMR, qualified Victor Ponta as a “ordinary traitor”, which, however, is not unique in Romanian politics.
“Not near Judah, in any case. Judas is part of the fundamental drama, the original drama of Christianity, it is there, Christianity has also been built with Judah. Mr. Ponta is a common traitor, so to speak, he is not the only traitor in politics, in general and from Romanian politics,” said the alliance candidate.
Crin Antonescu did not forgive the former prime minister for the 2012 betrayal, when they were in government partners.
“It is, perhaps, the most spectacular because when you betray the vote given, punctually, exactly – I mean 2012 and I do not refer to a betrayal to me as a political partner – the betrayals towards his own party, to his own electorate, to the people who helped him, it is not my case, in the political career, to the people who have been a lot, but this is many. The betrayals of Mr. Ponta ”, Puncate Crin Antonescu.
As for some polls that place Victor Ponta in a leading position, shoulder to shoulder with Nicuşor Dan, the former liberal says they are “Surveys produced by the production house Sebastian Ghiţă”.
At the same time, Crin Antonescu believes that, especially after the flood scandal made by Victor Ponta in 2014, not only will not enter the second round of the presidential elections in May, but will not even be among the first three -ranking.
“I do not think that Mr. Ponta and I will be in the second round. I do not think Mr. Ponta will be ranked even in the first three.” said Crin Antonescu.
