Asked, on Monday evening, on B1 TV, about the version carried inside the PSD that Gabriela Firea would be tested in the party’s internal polls and that it could be the PSD candidate at the Capital City Hall, Ciprian Ciucu said that
“There are few mayors who have been in the mandate and have recovered. I refer to the municipalities and big cities. A single example comes to my mind, Mr. Scripcaru from Brasov. He returned to his work, but also supported by a coalition. Mrs. Firea is now in the European Parliament. said Ciprian Ciucu.
