Nicuşor Dan, Student Memories: “I brought jeans from Turkey, but Mohair was better. I had a Dacia 1100 that they paid me for an email address ”| News, News Romania | Freedom

“I played tennis with my foot in the Grozăvești alley. I also went to the R2 disco. I stayed in the D bedroom,” begins the elected mayor of Bucharest, Nicușor Dan, the stories of his student days, during the podcast made by Andi Moisescu.

In addition to his plans as mayor general for the next four years, Nicusor Dan revealed a funny story that happened a few years after the 1989 Revolution. “I was in Turkey. Twice in Istanbul. It was the moment the trade was made. I was prospecting for the first time, I bought jeans and all that, but I found that mohair works better. Hahaha! The girls crocheted mohair sweaters. The second time I got on the bus with six bags of mohair. Of course, we also distribute them at customs “as was done then,” said the new mayor of Bucharest.

He continued with his memories: “That happened in 1991 or 1992. And I made around $ 400-500. I bought a car with a friend. He had a Dacia 1100 and was one of the few students who had a car. After that we both went to France. And the car froze the water in the radiator or something, and in 1994 or 1995, my friend’s mother gave this car a paycheck for emailing him. Hahaha! “Said Nicoro Dan also amused.

I was going through a circle of things and ideas, and when I discovered true math in college, I had a desire to read the entire high school library. I read a lot.

Nicușor Dan, Mayor-elect of Bucharest:

Where does the name Nicusor come from

Right at the beginning of the dialogue with Andi Moisescu, Nicușor Dan was asked about his full name in the newsletter, Nicușor Daniel Dan. “I am the first child, and in the house in Făgăraș where I grew up, all the men in that yard were called Nicolae. I also had to call myself Nicolae, but being the first girl and little girl, that’s what Nicușor told me. My mother wanted call me Daniel, and Nicușor because it had to be Nicolae, “said the new mayor.

Emil Constantinescu wanted him secretary of state

Nicușor Dan also said in the interview with Andi Moisescu that he had a proposal from President Emil Constantinescu to enter politics 21 years ago, but he refused. “In 1999, when I returned from France and started working here, President Constantinescu proposed me to be Secretary of State for Romanians abroad. And I refused! As I still thought I could do your job, I was still very passionate about me. I work as a mathematician, a researcher at the institute, and that I could do things outside of politics by working in the civic area. It was a miscalculation! The tools that we had then in the civic area, outside of politics, were extremely limited. As long as I’m in a public position, I could move things. It was a wrong calculation I made! “Said the elected mayor of Bucharest.

“Videanu wanted four towers in front of the Athenaeum”

Nicușor Dan has an interesting story with a former mayor of Bucharest. We talk about Adriean Videanu: “In 2006, the then mayor wanted to put four blocks in front of the Ateneo. In the parking lot we have now in front of the Athenaeum. Then he said: “This parking lot is ugly in front of the Athenaeum. We put it underground. But what do you need to have some underground entrances? “And those are ugly, we mask them with some towers!” Mr. Videanu was mayor then! I went to the rally, there were about 200 people who formed a civic group, who worked more on the internet. Then I put together “Let’s Save Bucharest”, with the idea of ​​having very clear actions and wrote a report, “Bucharest in urban disaster”, and at the launch I was surprised that all the press came, “Nicușor Dan also said.
