Save Romania Union (USR) Chairman Dan Barna in Targu Mures on Saturday has said that Romania should overcome this "ethnic cleavage" in which each one votes for his/her ethnicity and that in a civilised, modern and educated Romania the ethnic matter should no longer be relevant.
Dan Barna, a candidate of the USR PLUS alliance in the presidential elections, was in Targu Mures on Friday and Saturday to collect the necessary signatures for enrolling in the election race.
"We are known for doing things the real way, including collecting signatures in the street, signature by signature, from each citizen. I went to Moldavia, Bucovina, Dobrogea and Transilvania. (...) Everywhere there are Romanians who want change. The signature [collection] is going well, we have more than 150,000, we'll exceed the legal threshold of 200,000 signatures, but it is very interesting to interact with people and that is why I go together with the caravan to each county, precisely to feel the pulse there, in the street. This is what makes us different. It is for the first time in 30 years when there is a USR political movement and the USR PLUS alliance," Dan Barna showed
