We must admit that they have there were also moments when we had to repeat a series of analyses, to come back with a series of decisions because the situation was as complicated as possible and there were countless dynamic elements that required the modification of decisions. We do not say that it was a perfect governmental activity, but I can tell you that all efforts have been made so that we can make the decisions, communicate them in a timely manner and have this line of dialogue open with all our special partners, including the citizens, in order to be able to we find the solution to come and accomplish everything we have set out to do up to this point by the end of the year.

„I am particularly honoured to participate in this activity, through which we honour and praise the memory of the former prime minister of Romania, I.G. Duca. (…) We all have the duty that, for everything that I.G. Duca’s personality represented, let’s keep his memory alive and at the same time keep alive the deeds he did for Romania at that time. (…) Moments through which absolutely undemocratic forces led to the execution of a criminal act against the prime minister of the country in particularly difficult times, it must not happen in our country,” said Nicolae Ciuca.

The PNL leader mentioned that everything related to Western democratic values must be promoted, pointing out the fact that Romania is a member of the European Union and the North Atlantic Alliance.

The prime minister also said that he is against any steps that try to destroy these values.
