Asked whether the possibility of PNL supporting the PSD candidate for the presidential elections in exchange for the post of prime minister and the candidacy for the capital's mayoralty is worth considering, Nicolae Ciuca answered that it was not.

He said that he has a mandate from the PNL National Political Bureau to negotiate in coalition the merger of elections and anything else outside this mandate cannot be assumed by the party leadership.
