But then-PD leader Traian Basescu's victory in the presidential poll led to the creation of a centre-right coalition consisting of the two DA members plus two smaller parties -- the ethnic Hungarian UDMR, and the Conservative Party (PC), formerly known as the Humanist Party, which had previously backed the PSD.
Međutim, pobjeda tadašnjeg čelnika DS-a Traiana Basescua na predsjedničkim izborima dovela je do uspostave koalicije desnog centra u kojoj se nalaze dva člana DA i dvije manje stranke -- lokalna mađarska stranka UDMR i Konzervativna stranka (PC), nekadašnja Humanistička stranka, koja je ranije podupirala PSD.
