“ 'The media must make those in power uncomfortable, and they made me uncomfortable more than once, so they were doing their job. And that’s how it should be. We must remain under constant scrutiny because, at the end of the day, it’s important that anyone who occupies this palace and anyone who holds a representative office understands — and I believe I understood it that way — that we are employees,' he said.
