Conservative Party president Daniela Popa sent a letter Sunday to the leaders of all parliamentary parties, asking them not to react to remarks made by President Traian Basescu which were not related to his public functions.
“I appeal to your being open towards dialog and at the same time block the President's hijacking of the public agenda. I appeal to you not to answer any of the statements the President makes which do not pertain to the citizen's needs and the relationship the Presidency should hold with other institutions,” said Popa in a public letter sent to PM Calin Popescu Tariceanu, Social Democrat Party president Mircea Geoană, Greater Romania Party president Corneliu Vadim Tudor, Democrat Liberal Party president Emil Boc, and the Democrat Union of Hungarians in Romania president Bela Marko.
Popa's reaction comes on the heels of Basescu's recent remarks that the political class as a whole was similar to “waste water smearing the windows of the home Romania is.”
She said such words from the president were in fact a trap he set up for the politicians to fall in and “distance them from the real issues which should be at the center of the public agenda, while placing Basescu at center-stage.”

“It is up to us to resist the calls coming from the Presidency which want to turn trivial words into acceptable political language, and substitute constant bickering to actual political offer,” said Popa.
