Much ado about nothing

The first which arrived in the Revolution Square of Bucharest were the supporters of the Great Romania Party (PRM). The arrival of Corneliu Vadim Tudor and Adrian Paunescu was enthusiastically greeted by the crowd. The representative of the Romanian Social Democracy Party (PDSR), Adrian Nastase, was received rather coldly. Ion Iliescu didn’t participated anymore, saying that he has other problems.
Vadim Tudor said that if he arrives at power, he will get the Magyar Democratic Union of Romania (UDMR) out of law. The PRM leader launched in his speech a violent attack against some journalists within the written press and the Public Television. He said that Romania is the victim of a "press terrorism" and that many journalists are mercenaries and traitors paid by foreign secret agencies" and he nominated Cornel Nistorescu, Petre Mihai Bacanu, Sorin Rosca Stanescu, Andrei Cornea, Alina Mungiu and Radu Nicolau.
The prime vice-president of the Socialist Labour Party, Adrian Paunescu urged the participants in the meeting to put "pressures" on their party leaders to make an alliance with all the opposition forces as soon as possible.
Ion Iliescu had declared a day before that he doesn’t think it is possible the organization of an opposition alliance very soon.
About 500 revolutionists organized a protest demonstration in the Revolution Square at the same time with the meeting of the opposition parties. The revolutionists, members of some associations of the counties of Arges, Prahova, Timis, Braila and Vaslui rallied near the hunger strikers’ tent. They shouted slogans against Premier Ciorbea and of the Domestic Affairs Minister Gavril Dejeu, as well as against any minister within the ruling coalition except the Democratic Party (PD).
