"As an angered father, the president can react within the limits of his own politeness, but as president of the country, he must not forget the media is part of Romania's democratic patrimony," said the statement. It added, "The president has to protect the press."
"Kao naljućeni otac, predsednik može da reaguje u granicama sopstvene učtivosti, ali kao predsednik zemlje on ne može da zaboravi da su mediji deo rumunske demokratske baštine", navodi se u saopštenju i dodaje: "Predsednik mora da štiti novinare".
