USR « does not support it financially, only borrows it »
The presidential candidate, Nicușor Dan, said on Saturday that the USR will not support it financially ‘in any way’, but only through any individual loans of some members of the party.
He claimed that so far he has not received donations from USR members for the campaign, ‘but they will probably exist, in personal name’.
« The only person who will pay for this campaign is me, » the candidate said in the presidential elections.
About withdrawing the USR support for the candidate Elena Lasconi, Nicușor Dan believes that it is good that « the options have been clarified ».
There is a ‘clarity’ of the parties direction, Nicușor Dan said
‘A direction that is Russia’, exponents being Victor Ponta and George Simion, one ‘in which we do not change anything’, represented by Crin Antonescu and ‘a direction of change’, represented by him.
Elena Lasconi’s reaction after being left without campaign money
« I do not think I will have access to the USR headquarters. »
« Right will be done in court, but it lasts, » said Elena Lasconi, USR president, in a Facebook post, after the USR National Bureau decided to negotiate the conclusion of promotion contracts for her.
« … I would have wanted to travel to the country and in the diaspora in the next few weeks, to come to see you, to look at you in the eyes and talk to you about my plans for Romania. Unfortunately, the gang illegally blocked my access to the campaign. The way to talk to you remained social media.
The Political Committee of the USR, met on Thursday, voted in favor of supporting Nicuşor Dan in the presidential race.
On Friday, the USR National Bureau decided to mandate the General Secretariat and the campaign coordinator to negotiate the conclusion of the promotion contracts for the party president, Elena Lasconi.
