PresidentialElections2025/Nicusor Dan: Let's focus in these two weeks on the presidential elections of May 18

May 29, 2025

  Independent candidate Nicusor Dan, who entered the second round of the presidential elections, expressed hope that Romanians will make the right choice in 18 years, when they will choose between a pro-Western and an anti-Western direction.He proposed that in the two weeks until the second round, only the presidential elections be discussed, because "the societal debate will take Romania in the right direction.""In the next two weeks, the voice of politicians will matter much less than the voice of the people. (...) Now, Romania has a very important choice to make in the elections on May 18, between a pro-Western direction, an anti-Western one, a pro-economy one and one that, you saw the signals on the stock market today, is anti-market economy. This is the only thing we need to discuss until May 18.". (Photo:https://www.facebook.com/NicusorDan.ro/?locale=ro_RO)
