At the level of the opposition, for example, when their term is over, these people will need the elections to be re-elected [...]

I remain optimistic. There were doubts about the appointment of 3 representatives of the Superior Council of the Judiciary (CSPJ), but today, the CSPJ tries to improve its image [...] they move forward, it takes time. We follow the process, but we can not be pessimistic [...] In politics, when there are major issues to to manage, must remain calm, patient, tolerant to provide solutions to problems..."
