Daniel David said he had been asked to resign several times since his appointment as minister, particularly in the context of the fiscal crisis.

In a recent interview, Daniel David admitted that he has been under pressure to resign since he took office in January. He explained that he had been criticized for his pro-Euro-Atlantic rhetoric and the debates over the framework plans. David emphasized that if his resignation could solve the budgetary problems, he would accept to resign, noting that the functioning of the system is more important to him than his position.
