Studio 4 went on air at 12:51 pm. Actor Ion Caramitru and poet Mircea Dinescu were the first to speak. "Brothers, by the grace of God (making the sign of the cross), we are now in the television studios", Ion Caramitru said first.
He thanked the army, the students, the people around him and the other "thousands and thousands of Romanians and other nationalities who have led us".
"We must have patience. We have waited for 25 years, we can wait a few more minutes. The People have won!" (Mircea Dinescu)
