Lasconi gave the books on the face about Soros

USR leader Elena Lasconi believes that American billionaire George soros He did not harm Romania, and the lists of Sorosists circulating in the public space are « fascist appeals ». Lasconi was asked, in the Insider Political show, broadcast on Prima TV, if Soros hurt Romania.

« I know this is a question that if you would ask everyone … I tell you that no one answers you. But I have the courage to answer you and say no. And why do I say that? Because I am tired of seeing all kinds of labels or lists in the public space. List! These are fascist appeals. Lists of people labeled as Sorosists. Brothers, if you have evidence, show them! I didn't see any evidence. I do not know that Soros would have done something wrong in Romania. I absolutely did not benefit in my life of a scholarship, a job or a thing with Soros, ”said Elena Lasconi.

Asked why USR is labeled as a Sorosist, Elena Lasconi replied: « I know it's very easy to label. And, as a rule, these things happen by autocratic and dictatorship systems. If you are against them or alive with other arguments, normally you are a sorosist. ”

Another Romanian politician who believes that George Soros's scholarships dedicated to democracy were beneficial is Foreign Minister Emil Hurezeanu. Hurezeanu only once met the American billionaire George Soros, in the early 2000s, in Romania, when he had an interview. « As far as I know, it has generally done well over the years, over the decades, » said Emil Hurezeanu, on Prima TV
