He went on to say, “I would not want to be governor for 20 or 25 years, even if it were possible. For the sake of the health of the system, for the sake of maintaining real democracy, turnover of power and the like, we must leave.” He said he was not a fatalist, but "there is such a concept - this is how fate has developed or how life has developed." He added, “I just don't know who runs it.”[7]
