Crin Antonescu defends Nicușor Dan after the appointments to the prosecutor's offices: "He is not the captive of a sect"

Crin Antonescu publicly supported the decisions made by Nicușor Dan regarding the appointments at the top of the prosecutor's offices, stating that the president made "a healthy presidential first gesture" refusing to be influenced by pressures from supporters and some public voices. In the context of criticisms related to the alleged closeness to PSD, Antonescu stated that the reactions are exaggerated and politically motivated, emphasizing that the head of state has demonstrated independence in decision-making and cannot be considered "the captive of a sect" just because he did not meet the expectations of a certain electorate.
