March 31 - Theodor Stolojan, leader of the ruling Liberal Democrat Party (PLD), showed his support toward president Traian Basescu, criticizing those blaming the political turmoil in Romania on the conflict between the president and the premier.
Stolojan told the PLD congress held at the Parliament Palace that the crisis was triggered by the struggle between those willing to eradicate the “perverted system” and those who want to preserve the “transition swamp.” Legitimated as the Alliance’s inheritors, the liberal-democrats will continue the “fight” to impose the values of the ruling Alliance, Stolojan further said.
“We are the successors of the DA Alliance’s spirit and the upholders of Traian Basescu. No critics saying we are only an appendix to the Presidency will make us give up what is right,” Stolojan said.
Stolojan underlined the importance of creating the PLD, considering the present political context. PLD’s role is to unify the political right wing forces, an objective which has not been accomplished in the past 17 years.
