Traian Băsescu continues the exchange of remarks with Kelemen Hunor: "Now he is looking for a master here"
Traian Băsescu gave a reply to Kelemen Hunor after he was ironized by him following a call made by the former president against UDMR.
"Let 'Petrov' come and solve the problem," said Kelemen Hunor on September 14, one day after Traian Băsescu requested the removal of UDMR "out of the games of Romania," in the context of negotiations for the formation of the Government.
The former president of Romania gave a reply in the Saturday edition of the show "În fața ta" from Digi24.
"I can solve the problem, I have solved a problem once already that was left entirely to them, from the Government of Tăriceanu. I can also solve today's problem," said Traian Băsescu.
He admitted that he is "a product of the old regime," as the leader of UDMR called him.
"I am a product of the old regime. I was not educated and did not live in London, but in Bucharest, Constanța, Bacău. I lived in Romania and I evolved, and I commanded the largest ship of Romania, so a ship of one million barrels, 306 meters, so I am a product of the old regime, but a product that, unlike the liars in politics, had the courage to declassify the archives of the former Securitate and had the courage to condemn communism. This is the difference between me and Kelemen Hunor. I did not let Orban do it. He did. Now, having no leverage, he turned to the autochthonous zone, he is looking for a master here," added Traian Băsescu.
How the exchange of remarks between Traian Băsescu and Kelemen Hunor began
Amid the negotiations that the parties are carrying out to form a new Government, Traian Băsescu criticized UDMR, accusing the party led by Kelemen Hunor of "playing with Budapest until the opinions broke."
"UDMR should be taken out of the games of Romania, after playing with Budapest until the opinions broke, now they come to play games in Bucharest. I would keep the gentlemen from UDMR a little further away, because I see that there was also the idea to put Kelemen Hunor as prime minister. Let's cover ourselves with a ridiculous banner," Băsescu stated on România TV, on September 13, according to News.ro.
In reply, the leader of UDMR ironized the former president of Romania.
"A former president, the best product of the communist dictatorship, a political product, and of the communist Security, said we should be kept away from politics. OK, let 'Petrov' come and solve the problem," affirmed Kelemen Hunor on September 14, in declarations made at Parliament.
In March 2022, the High Court established that Traian Băsescu was a collaborator of the Security, with the codename "Petrov".
