Evenimentul Zilei writes today about " The 30 seconds backstage in which Ponta was prime minister". USL took the proposal in February as a joke.
Ion Cristoiu, who also moderated the Sunday show in which President made the revelations, said that there were two purposes of the President. First, he wanted to show the Romanians that Liberal Democrat Party (PDL) is not his soul party and he can always invite political opponents to power.
Second, he wanted to familiarize the Romanian with the idea that in autumn he could designate Ponta premier.
Another point of view in România Liberă: "Trap for USL." In the political game, Traian Băsescu had in check the opposition by revealing that the Social Democrat Party(PSD) leader offered to be prime minister.
Opposition tangled in explanations and sank further into the trap. But a question remains: why USL leaders did not reveal "the mickey out of" why they lost the opportunity to score election?

Forex enthusiasts have dreamed of easy enrichment. In fact, chances are very small, fewer Romanians have won something because right decisions require to know about everything that happens in the financial field.
In Jurnalul Naţional, we read that "One of the first Olympics in mathematics is disappointed with the Romanian education". Very good children are fewer and fewer, ascertains bitterly the 72 year old professor, Şerban Basarab.
Declining quality of education is actually a global phenomenon, considers the mathematician.
