They have all pretended to be Mandela, being actually Monica Macovei, Prime Minister Victor Ponta said on the Monday evening "Daily Summary" show, commenting the attitude of politicians close to President Basescu, alluding to Monica Macovei’s affirmation, who compared herself to Nelson Mandela
Ponta stated that in all "these 10 years of history of Romania, lies and demagogy were high-level state policy" (...). "Every time, Basescu and his men pretended to be anything other than what they are. In fact, they all pretended to be Mandela, being Monica Macovei"
Victor Ponta said that the USL project belonged to the people who showed they were not afraid, just as Antena 3, about which the PM says : "You’ve done all the evils in the world to us and we're still here."
