After he asked Nicușor Dan if when he asked the Coalition to be a unique candidate, he was either antisystem, reforming or opportunistic.
“I would like to start by reminding you that on November 15, I sent a message to my Facebook account, which urged the Romanians to vote for you. Beyond all the rumors, the feelings that each of us lives I think we have to look at the Romanian people, to see what their expectations are. And let's see what the real options are. The real options are Nicușor Dan, Victor Ponta, Elena Lasconi or Crin Antonescu”, Nicușor Dan replied.
To Nicușor Dan, Lasconi told him it would be “the candidate who would pass any test of young people ”.
“Nicușor, you would be the candidate who would pass any small test. I am sorry, that I have put a lot of hope in you. I learned from TV that you came over. Say a lot about character ”added Elena Lasconi.
For his part, Nicușor Dan said that “It's not the right place for soap operas. “
“It's not the right place for soap operas. On December 8, knowing that it exists within the USR, I gave the first phone to Mrs. Lasconi to inform her of the intention to apply, then I called the Coalition leaders, believing that an independent with important trust can win the elections”, Nicușor Dan also mentioned.
