AMN demands that Constitutional Court take away one of Voronin’s posts

{Erratum: This news story replaces the news item “Opposition demands that Constitutional Court take away one of Voronin’s posts”} The Our Moldova Alliance (AMN) submitted an application to the Constitutional Court, demanding that it recognize the stand-in position of the Moldovan president and the fact that the current president should not exercise his power, and declare the decrees issued by Voronin while holding two posts as unconstitutional, Info-Prim Neo reports. The application is based on a number of laws, which say that the president holds office for four years of the investiture and the presidency is not compatible with any other paid post. Under the Code of Constitutional Jurisdiction, the post falls vacant when the president’s term in office expires. At a news conference on June 11, the AMN leader Serafim Urechean said that the Communists usurp the power because Voronin has been president of Moldova since 2001 and simultaneously leader of the PCRM. “The Constitutional Court could reject our application as it did with the PLDM’s application. Therefore, we forwarded a similar application to the Venice Commission. As the Constitutional Court is a member of this Commission, it should accept and examine this application. Otherwise, it will discredit itself at international level,” the AMN leader said. The AMN also filed an application to the Prosecutor General’s Office, demanding that it provide clear explanations for what is happening in Moldova as high-ranking officials hold incompatible positions. “You could see at yesterday’s sitting of the Parliament that many of the MPs that have not yet decided what post to keep, as they should have done long ago, took part in the installation of the so-called Government of Moldova,” Urechean added. The Constitutional Court rejected the PLDM’s application, arguing that it is beyond its competence. “The letter sent by the president of the Constitutional Court to Vlad Filat is insulting because the constitutional courts pronounce on applications by decisions, not by letters,” first deputy president of the PLDM Alexandru Tanase said at a new conference on June 5. “In the application, you ask solving a problem the answer to which is evident to you,” the letter says.
