He said that Elena Udrea recently attacked him "insultingly". " I honestly believe that Ms Udrea’s role in politics is deeply toxic" Ungureanu said, noting that he hoped the PMP president learned a lesson from the episodes of her confrontation with him.
Asked about the fact that Elena Udrea was supported by Traian Băsescu, Ungureanu said that the president had his merits in that he tried to promote valuable people, but added that they had left in time. The former prime minister said he believed that one of the people who contributed to the separation of President Basescu from the quality people with whom he worked - starting with Andrei Pleşu and ending with Teodor Baconschi and Adrian Papahagi - is Elena Udrea.
Civic Force leader said that the tone of the responses he had got, in various ways, to the articles he wrote recently in the press, were similar to that of the Stalinist period. "You do not belong with the right wing with a Stalinist political thinking and when you expect to have only the cult of personality," Ungureanu said.
He said that there are two names in the Romanian politics that you cannot ignore when it comes to the 10-year term of President Basescu in the office and that is : Elena Udrea and Dan Voiculescu
"Honestly, I do not believe that Mrs. Udrea has had honest friends to draw her attention," Ungureanu said.
The PMP President, Elena Udrea said Monday that Mihai Răzvan Ungureanu is trying to make his way into the unification project by attacking her and President Traian Basescu and pointed out that if someone denies something he had endorsed, then he sends out a signal to the electorate that he is being opportunistic.
Udrea said she understood that for some Basescu's legacy did not matter since PDL and PNL are merging against the President, but those of the PMP and the voters were indeed interested in the legacy Traian Basescu.
