Former Prime Minister Adrian Nastase spoke Thursday upon leaving the Jilava prison about the need for a pardon law, for early parliamentary elections, but also about a tax amnesty, adding that the challenges faced over the recent years have strengthened him. 

"I think we should understand one simple thing: occasionally we need a fiscal amnesty law, but a law of pardon is also needed," the former prime minister said, stating that the law of pardon should "be a wise formula, not an aberrant one, with limits up to seven years.”  

Regarding elections, Nastase said that "the Romanian state currently only has two powers: the executive, consisting of the president and the government, and the judiciary." 

"A third power would also be needed, the legislative body, and probably because I can speak more freely now, I'd say that  next year early parliamentary elections would be needed,  that will build a solid Parliament and solve some of the problems that are unanswered. But it would undoubtedly require a change in the electoral law and the  return to the elections based on the list  in order to professionalize the Parliament ". 

Asked whether he will return to politics, former PSD Prime Minister said that for nine years, he cannot  hold public office, but added that he received offers from several multinationals, and  also from a foreign government, but he  declined to say from which country.

Năstase  also added that he would want to go back into professorship  and that he would like to serve as a political adviser.  

"You know very well that over the next nine years I basically will not be able to hold public offices and, from this point of view, I had the great pleasure of  receiving  various offers from some multinational companies and from  a foreign government. Do not ask me from where, because I will not  tell you anyway " Nastase said. 

The former prime minister said that  he is currently writing a book entitled "Crossing the Desert" which includes facts about his  prison experience.  

Moreover, Nastase announced the journalists that he  will not give interviews in the near future.

Adrian Nastase was released from the Jilava prison Thursday after the  County Court decided, finally, that the former prime minister can be released on parole because he served  ​​a third of the sentence of four years and six months in prison.  

The court rejected the appeal submitted by the National Anticorruption and upheld the  4th District Court decision, which established that the former Prime Minister Adrian Nastase can  be released on parole. The County Court ordered the immediate  release from prison  of Adrian Nastase. 

Nastase effectively served 500 days of punishment, namely 228 days of punishment received in the  "Zambaccian" case file  and 272 from the punishment ordered in the "Quality Trophy" case file. To these were added 105 days considered executed as a result of work performed, namely the formulation of scientific papers. Thus, it was felt that Nastase served  ​​605 days of the sentence.
