Băsescu vs. Hunor: Romanian political spat over Securitate archives and Orbán ties

Former Romanian President Traian Băsescu sharply attacked UDMR leader Kelemen Hunor, who had called him 'the best product of the communist dictatorship.' Băsescu defended his record on declassifying Securitate archives and accused Hunor of seeking a new patron after Viktor Orbán's electoral defeat in Hungary. The exchange reflects ongoing political tensions in Romania over historical legacy and Hungarian minority politics.
