Captures from a clip posted on the Facebook page of President Nicușor Dan.
Asked Monday night by Mircea Badea who are the people who filmed and mounted the videos on the social networks in which Nicușor Dan was hiking on the mountains, the president said that it was about volunteers who were part of his campaign team for the presidential elections.
“You had the team that filmed your vacation and documented, mounted (n.red.: Videos). You were then asked who the people were, if they were remunerated, and you said then that they are volunteers,” was Badea's intervention in the interview given on Monday evening Antena 3 CNN.
“It is a team of people with whom we worked in the campaign and who in pre-Campanie and in the campaign were paid. At this moment we are with the reorganization, they did this activity voluntarily,” was Nicușor Dan.
“I want to be the president of all Romanians.” Nicușor Dan, asked if he is trying to attract the electorate of George Simion and Călin Georgescu
In response to the answer, the journalist Antena 3 CNN made a “joke, I hope it is tasteful”, about one of the austerity measures taken by the Bolojan Government: “It is exactly like Prime Minister Bolojan who said that the teachers' salaries are not reduced, but we increase the norm to 20 hours a week.”
“With the difference that I did not oblige them to anything (n.red.: On volunteers),” Nicușor Dan returns.
Nicușor Dan's expeditions
Towards the end of August, Nicușor Dan was absent from the festivities organized in Constanța on the Day of the Romanian Navy. It was for the first time that a president was missing from events in 2011. The Minister of Defense, Ionuț Moșteanu, later stated that the boss is “in a period of holidays”, which was why he was missing from the festivities in Constanța.
The president and his family chose to attend a job at the Sâmbăta de Sus monastery that day, very close to Făgăraș, his hometown. The head of the state said he wanted to be close to the community, in a place where he came with his parents.
On another day, Nicușor Dan went on a pilgrimage to the Arsenie Boca Monastery, in the Sâmbetei Valley. According to the filming made by those present, the president was received with bread and salt by the abbot and greeted the parishioners present at the job.
These events, as the visit from Roșia Montană, did not find themselves on the official agenda of the president.
The next day, he posted a video clip with his hiking in the last days, saying that the most beautiful places he visited with the family are those from us, in Romania.
According to the images, the head of state showed his son a waterfall, entered with his daughter to the top of the mountain and showed him how to drink water from the spring.
“Romania has exceptional places, such as the big window from Sâmbăta, from Făgăraş. I invite Romanians to spend their holidays in Romania,” was the message of the head of state.
