National leader of the Hungarian Democratic Union of Romania (UDMR) Kelemen Hunor said on Friday in Targu Mures that after the establishment of the common candidate of the governing coalition, in the person of Crin Antonescu, there were no other discussions about other candidates, as it is stated in the public space, regarding a possible intention of candidacy of the country’s interim President Ilie Bolojan.

„Those discussions are not true. There were no such discussions, I can’t stop anyone from talking as they see fit. But in the coalition, after we established who the coalition’s candidate is, namely Crin Antonescu, there were no other discussions about other candidates. So from that point of view, it is certainly not good, but at the same time it is not true either,” Kelemen told the press, when asked about the statements of National Liberal Party (PNL) First Deputy Chairman President Ciprian Ciucu regarding the Social Democratic Party (PSD) blocking Bolojan’s presidential bid.

The UDMR leader said that he does not know why such statements appear in the public space, as there were no such discussions.
