The European officials believe that now the ball is in the PLDM’s court. At least this is what the leaders of the PDM and PL said in Parliament. Marian Lupu and Mihai Ghimpu, alongside the deputy head of the PLDM Vadim Pistrinciuc and the leader of the PPEM Iurie Leanca, took part in a video-conference with European officials who represent the political families with which the four Moldovan parties affiliated themselves.

The European officials said that forming a government and avoiding the early elections are the last chance for the Republic of Moldova.

“The European colleagues told us that the avoidance of early elections, the formation of a professional government and our work to implement the Association Agreement are the last chance for the Republic of Moldova. They told us openly that the political dialogue and negotiations must take place because these are a proof of the political maturity and responsibility. According to the normal standards, there is no place for whims, arrogance and frustrations in civilized politics,” Marian Lupu stated in the November 26 sitting of Parliament.

He noted that this dialogue must be held without conditions or preconditions.

“Another stated idea was that it seems that those from the PLDM worked out a strategy for pushing the country towards early parliamentary elections,” added Lupu.

“The political crisis and the impossibility of forming a parliamentary majority and the government of Moldova were the main issues discussed. It was a good discussion. The European colleagues said they know our political and financial situation and we should sit at the negotiating table without conditions. They made it clear that the ball is in the PLDM’s court and this party should realize the situation in Moldova,” stated Mihai Ghimpu.

The video-conference was held at the head office of the European Union Delegation to Moldova.
