The pro- Basescu protest gathered yesterday representatives of the Democratic Party or PD from various national branches, public servants from Bucharest’s Mayoralties, former minister and supporters.
The crowd was entertained by folk and hip-hop artists and around 19.00, when most TV stations broadcast newsreels, Basescu showed up with former justice minister Monica Macovei.
