National Press Review, March 20

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?

"How Romania would look without European funds", we find out from Adevărul. "Terrible" is the conclusion of the scenario sketched by the National Commission of Prognosis.

Budget deficit target would be significantly exceeded in 2012: 3.1 percent versus 1.9. So far, funds neither have tangled the economy, nor helped it, because the absorption rate was very low.

"Convictions at break for football wildlife", we read in Evenimentul Zilei.

Today decisions are expected in the file "football transfers involving “elite” donors, accused of fraud, money laundering and tax evasion Prosecutors demanded the maximum sentence, 20 years for brothers Ioan and Victor Becali because they have defrauded millions of dollars several clubs.

Ziarul Financiar tells us "How Romanians became Euro billionaires on Forex “.

We find out that over eight thousand Romanian people monthly trading about 4 billion on the largest currency market, which decides fluctuating exchange rates.

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.

From Adevărul we find out that "FBI is in secret mission in Iaşi“, even "top secret" write journalists, who yet have learned what it is about.

Related to a case "extremely spectacular" scenarios emerged from Hollywood: in 2007, three Romanian dressed like ninjas have kidnapped an American millionaire couple at their home, in the United States.
