After the bloc ACUM DA PAS rejected the Party of Socialists’ invitation to discuss the formation of a parliamentary majority, the bloc’s co-president Andrei Năstase said the bills proposed by ACUM will be discussed in Parliament, not at the head offices of parties. He noted that all the initiatives were made public before they were invited to form coalitions and are intended for all the newly elected MPs, IPN reports.

According to Andrei Năstase, the bloc ACUM is the only political entity that for the first time in the 27 years of independence adopted a different approach – it came to say what should be done and for whom. “We didn’t say we want to form an alliance with one party or another. We came with a set of things that should be done in this period. We address each of the MPs as, either we want it or not, the Constitutional Court controlled by Plahotniuc decided to validate all the seats,” the politician stated in the talk show “Expertise hour” on Jurnal TV channel.

“We will discuss, but will discuss with MPs, not with party leader and several persons close to them, as it happened earlier. What should we negotiate? Are the principles, values and destiny of a country negotiated?” asked Andrei Năstase.

He noted the Socialists’ attitude showed lack of sincerity in their political approach. “Currently, I can do nothing but insist on the agenda with which we went to the voters and on the agenda we promoted in time,” said the politician.

In a press briefing on March 11, the Party of Socialists’ secretary for ideology Ion Ceban invited the leaders of the electoral bloc ACUM DA PAS to discussions on the establishment of political parliamentary cooperation relations. The next day, the bloc’s leaders rejected the invitation, arguing all the ACUM candidates for MP before the elections signed a public commitment, promising not to form alliances with oligarchic and anti-European parties.
