Guvernul roman a publicat pe site-ul sau inregistrarea audio completa a interviului acordat, in limba engleza, agentiei straine de presa Reuters, precum si transcrierea segmentului in care premierul raspunde la intrebarea referitoare la Rosia Montana, precizand ca declaratiile lui Ponta au fost scoase din context iar agentia a alaturat doua fraze din momente diferite ale interviului.

Amintim ca Ponta a acuzat agentia Reuters ca a dat "un titlu tampit" articolului aparut pe baza interviului.

Intr-o interventie telefonica in emisiunea "Sub semnul intrebarii" de pe B1 TV, premierul a sustinut ca, desi declaratiile sale sunt citate corect in articol de catre agentia Mediafax, titlul e o "minciuna ordinara", "o mare magarie", "exact invers decat citatul". Ulterior, el a acuzat ca si jurnalistii de la Reuters, autorii stirii originale, au dat un "titlu tampit", care "e invers decat ce am spus in interviu".

Second, it’s a political but also a society mentality debate about foreign investors, about opening to private investors that’s why I think, I keep saying for Romania if the Parliament will decide not to make this project it’s not going to be a big issue. But if Romania
