Unfortunately, the alienation of many former party members, supporters and voters is an obvious fact, proven by figures and polls. Unfortunately, in the two years since the elections, we have not succeeded in gaining more trust, but have lost trust in sterile disputes, arrogant or superficial behavior. This is because we have often failed to internalize internal mechanisms and procedures that favor fairness and transparency, that enhance involvement, openness and enthusiastic action by members.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And that is why the responsibility for change lies primarily with those of us who promised a different policy.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I especially thank my colleagues in the CURAJ team on whose list I ran for the USR presidency.
