Virgil Citzak, the liberal mayor of Konstanz, believes that after the resignation of the head of the SRI, Eduard Helwig will return to the PNL and run for the European Parliament elections next year.

On the Political Insider show, which was broadcast on Prima TV on Saturday, Virgil Chitsak was asked how he took the resignation of Eduard Helwig as head of the SRI.

“Honestly, I think that Mr. Helwig wants to make a political career,” replied Virgil Chitsak.

When asked if Eduard Helwig will return to PNL, Virgil Chitsak answered: “Yes, that is my impression, and I think he will take part in the elections next year.”

Regarding the scenario of Eduard Helwig’s candidacy in the presidential elections, Virgil Kitsak answered: “There is such a scenario. I wouldn’t go that far, but I don’t think there is a lack of logic and perspective for Mr. Helvig to be on the list for the European Parliament elections.”

Eduard Helwig was elected MEP on the PNL list in the 2014 European Parliament elections. He resigned in March 2015 when President Klaus Iohannis appointed him director of the SRI. On Monday, he resigned from the post of head of the special service, citing the fact that “petrification in office is not good.” (News.ro)
