President Basescu executes Norica Nicolai publicly – Anca Hriban – Ziua – read here -“The President of Romania Traian Basescu came out yesterday to release information about the professional career of Liberal Norica Nicolai and ground his refusal to appoint her a minister of Justice.

The President put it straight yesterday: "I will never appoint her a minister of Justice !". He insinuated the PM had another means available: to have the MPs vote for or against her. If they vote for her, the President will have to appoint her a minister by decree. Traian Basescu complained that last Thursday he had kept on trying to get in touch with the PM, but he wouldn't be reached. "This is unacceptable in the rule of law, for it could have been a problem of national security !", the President commented“.
