"I would like to thank you for the strength you had, a handful of people, you in the room, you in the presidium, Mrs. chairperson Elena Udrea, you who have dedicated to this idea to create a new party. Even if she is not here, I would like to thank her and appreciate the gentleness of her gesture to not be in the room. I hope she enjoys fair conditions to defend herself and I hope she confirms once again that she is an honest person, I have the conviction that if she can, she will", said Basescu on Sunday at the PMP congress.

He added that he wants to be a partner for the PMP, that he offers them his experience, but that he will not lead them, the party will be led by those who will be elected on Sunday by the Congress. AGERPRES
