Minister of Health Alexandru Rafila said on Thursday, in eastern Bacau, that it is premature to discuss his potential candidacy for the Presidency of Romania, according to Agerpres.

Asked, in a press conference, if his candidacy in the presidential elections in 2024 is possible, Alexandru Rafila stated that such a position is honorable, but requires „at least two elements”.

„One is related to the clear support of a political party for such a candidacy and another element is related to the conscience and preparation that a person has – and I am not necessarily referring to myself – for such a candidacy which means not only the greatest honor, but also the greatest responsibility in a country. So it is premature and pointless to speculate on this topic,” said Alexandru Rafila.
