In Romania, we have pledged to create a modern public service: well-educated, appropriately rewarded and above all, de-politicized.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Of course, I grew up in Communist Romania, but I am happy to say that now our country is democratic, and prospering, since the revolution in 1989.
I assure Romanians that once I return... I will try and generate a sentiment of reconciliation in society. Divisions in society must be stopped, they must be annihilated, because Romania needs all its energy to... integrate into the civilized world.
I ask you to stand by my side in the next five years. We shall live a good life in a Romania of all Romanians.
I am a committed European; a united Europe is Romania's future.
More than ever, Romania now needs to see that a force exists that puts an end to Ponta and Antonescu's abuses and coup d'etat. This force is none other than the Romanian people.
In the end, I think the majority of Romanian society will understand that if we respect environmental protection standards, if we have benefits in taxes, royalties, jobs, we should do what all the modern countries in Europe and beyond are doing to take advantage of their natural resources.
I wish to be useful, and every kind of service necessary to the public good becomes honorable by being necessary.
We need a government which, yes, guarantees basic standards in public services, but which also steps in to protect people's wellbeing as they take part in our consumer democracy - particularly online.
We are the country that has attracted the biggest volume of foreign investment in southeastern Europe in the past few years. Romania doesn't need to beat itself, believing that it is a second-class citizen.
It is the State which educates its citizens in civic virtue, gives them a consciousness of their mission and welds them into unity.
