PSD leader Victor Ponta: if President Basescu passes the law on pensions we will start procedures to suspend the President 

Redactia Hotnews

If President Basescu passes the law on pensions, adopted by fraud by Roberta Anastase, I will demand all Parliamentary groups to agree to suspend the President, PSD leader Victor Ponta declared in a press conference. We hope that we will convince all Parliamentary groups to vote for the suspension of the President, Ponta said.

Ponta’s declarations:

  • PSD cannot not react and will act politically. 6 million retired people are affected by the robbery committed by Roberta Anastase under the protection of the President. Anastase and Basescu endanger the well functioning of democracy 
  • The whole scandal and reactions of the President have one cause: they were caught stealing. It is clear that Anastase did not steal by herself 
  • the law on pensions sees the cut by 6% of the pensions, women in Romania will have to work by 65 years old which is unfair 
  • through this law, militaries are lied to and humiliated 
  • the law steals from those who want to retire before their time 
  • Basescu’s reaction is a typical one for the times I did not caught but my parents did, a typical Communist reaction 
  • I had the courage to fight the regime at the age of 17 and I have the courage at 38 to stand against Basescu 
  • I do not have any public function, I am just a deputy of Gorj. I am a prosecutor and this is why I am used to felons like Basescu.
