University professor Ana Gutu, who heads the unionist party The Right, was nominated by the party for the presidency by a unanimous vote of the National Council members, IPN reports.

In a press release, the party says that Ana Gutu asked for the assiatnce of all the members of the party and its sympathizers in organizing a fair election campaign, in strict compliance with the party’s key desideratum – Moldova’s union with Romania.

The Right reminds that it was the first political party that this spring suggested holding negotiations for identifying a unionist candidate for the October 30 parliamentary elections. “Later, the discussions reached deadlock owing to a number of causes, but not all the parties with unionist aspirations accepted the invitation,” it is said in the press release.

The candidate of The Right will have a unionist electoral program that will express the essence of the party’s political program. During the next few days, The Right will submit the documents required for launching the signature collection campaign to the Central Election Commission. Also, the members of the National Council delegated by vote the party’s Political Bureau to take decisions about the actions of The Right in the presidential elections, depending on the electoral conjuncture.

Nine applications for registering initiative groups for collecting signatures in support of parties’ candidates have been submitted to the CEC so far.
