Romanian Liberal leader and ex-PM Nicolae Ciucă to launch a book next month
<p><strong>Nicolae Ciucă</strong>, a former prime minister of Romania and the president of the National Liberal Party (PNL), is set to release a book in June. Titled&nbsp;<i>Un ostaș în slujba țării/A soldier in the country's service</i>, the volume will be published by RAO, and the proceeds will be donated to charitable initiatives, according to the announcement published on his <a href="https://nicolaeciuca.ro/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">website</a>.</p>

<p>Ciucă, a retired general, said the book is about him and his "thoughts on what the transition from an army man to a politician meant." It's not an electoral program or a volume about his public image, he also stated, but about his life behind the scenes, behind "the microphone or the TV."</p>

<p>"I am not a typical politician. And you will see what I believe in this collection of thoughts and life stories,"&nbsp;he says on the website promoting the book.</p>

<p>Nicolae Ciucă is currently the head of the Romanian Senate. He recently <a href="https://www.romania-insider.com/pnl-leader-nicolae-ciuca-run-president-romania-2024" rel="noopener" target="_blank">confirmed plans to run in the presidential elections this autumn</a>.</p>
