Nicușor Dan's pride
Definition
A political and journalistic phrase used in the Romanian media to describe the tenacious, rigid, mathematical, and often inflexible administrative style of politician Nicușor Dan (the General Mayor of Bucharest). The phrase directly refers, according to political analysis and press commentary, to his refusal to yield to pressures from large real estate developers, his strictness regarding urban legality, and his resilience in negotiations with political parties within the General Council, being perceived by critics as proud stubbornness that blocks dialogue and city development, and by supporters as moral uprightness and unshakable consistency.
