Social Democratic Party (PSD) Chairman and Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu said on Friday, after the meeting of the National Political Council of the PSD in Sambata de Sus, that the party will hold a congress in early July to nominate the candidate for the presidency of Romania and that Mircea Geoana's candidacy had not been discussed within the party so far.
"At the beginning of July, the Social Democratic Party will have a congress to nominate the presidential candidate. There are always several options. The important thing is that my colleagues and I make the best decision (...). The Mircea Geoana option has not been discussed within the party so far. And I personally have not had a discussion for several years with Mr. Mircea Geoana for such an eventuality," Marcel Ciolacu told a press conference.
The PSD leader pointed out that in politics one must take into account the realities, the wishes of the electorate and that, if one looks at the profile of those who have won the elections at the moment, one does not see "the profile of the past."
He said that an analysis had been made within the party and that if the result were not taken into account, it would happen as in the previous presidential elections.
The National Political Council of the PSD took place on Friday in the "Sambata Academy" hall of the Brancoveanu Monastery in Sambăta de Sus, to analyse the results of the local and European Parliament elections.
