"I was in the second round along with Victor Ponta, we undertook together the project USL 2 and as such I take the responsibility for a part of the failure. That does not mean I am quitting the battle. I too feel the responsibility before those who voted for me and for that we must take fulfill our mandate. "
"I still believe that Mr. Klaus Iohannis, although the winner of the presidential election, remains an inadequate person for president," former Prime Minister Calin Popescu-Tariceanu said.
Here are the most important statements by Tăriceanu:
-Klaus Iohannis does not have the experience nor the competence necessary to be president of Romania.
-Iohannis will continue to represent the Băsescu regime and being maneuvered by the people in the PDL we will assist the continuation of this regime which has not leave a fond memory on Romanians.
- I cannot leave behind the remark Mr. Iohannis made yesterday - "We have taken back our country!” I cannot understand this remark. I do not know whom we take the country from and to whom we give it. It appears to be a remark typical to Băsescu and this thing has me thinking, because Mr. Iohannis declared himself the president of all Romanians.
- I will continue the fight started to proceed with my projects and to support liberalism in Romania.
