Romanian Initiative Party President Gusa Resigns

According to preliminary data provided by the Central Electoral Office, PIN received 2.64% of the votes.

 

Gusa told MEDIAFAX that according to article 64 of the party’s statute, a general meeting is called following the official results of any round of elections, to select a new structure for the party’s management within 45 days.

 

“This entails a resignation and I’ve decided to take responsibility for it. Vice-president Lavinia Sandru and party secretary general Valeriu Bordei will take over the party president’s attributions,” Gusa said, adding he called a party general meeting for Dec. 15.

 

Gusa also said the party was successful in some area, as it exceeded the 5% threshold in some counties, but admitted that PIN needs more “resources and organizations”.

 

“I need to think about whether I will run again for party president. I could do several things: I could be secretary general, or vice-president. Under no circumstances will I leave the party. I founded PIN to take it into parliament and I will be the last one to leave this party,” Gusa concluded.
