Former PM says she will be Romania’s president starting Monday, refuses to answer question in English

Former prime minister and presidential candidate Viorica Dancila said on Tuesday evening that she will be Romania’s president starting Monday and that she hopes the incumbent president and counter-candidate Klaus Iohannis will vote for her too.

She made these statements during a press conference organized at the Parliament on Tuesday evening. Dancila’s dialogue with the journalists started at 18:00 and lasted for about two and a half hours, overlapping at some point with the debate of Klaus Iohannis, which started at 19:00. The two have been addressing to the electorate separately in this campaign, as Iohannis refused a political debate with Dancila. (See the main statement made by Klaus Iohannis during his debate here).
