The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (ALDE) on Tuesday submitted to the Central Electoral Bureau lists of about 400,000 supporting signatures and a list of its candidates in the May 26 elections to the European Parliament.
ALDE MEP Norica Nicolai said the party proposes to the Romanians an "exceptional list," a list of people with a "high moral probity."
"I would like to thank the members of the BEC for having had the patience to check the nearly 400,000 signatures that ALDE submitted today. I want to tell you that this is a special day to me as I am submitting the list of ALDE MEP candidates. I believe that ALDE proposes to the Romanians an exceptional list, a list of people with a profession, a list of people whose moral probity cannot be called into question, a list this party is using to compete for the votes of the Romanians," said Nicolai.
She added that Romanians want to live in a Europe that is closer to and more respectful of Romania.
"We respect the fact that all Romanians love their country, and that all Romanians want to live in a Europe that is closer to us, more respectful of us, same as we are close to Europe, respectful of Europe. I believe that respect, trust and more good for each and every one is needed both in Romania and in Europe," said Nicolai.
