The European Action Movement (MAE) is asking Moldova's outgoing president Vladimir Voronin to either confirm or deny reports regarding the establishment of a federative Moldovan republic, allegedly agreed upon with Russian president Dmitry Medvedev at their latest meeting. “Considering this information, as well as the fact that the Communists Party and you yourself are stated advocates of the statehood, we solicit you to urgently clarify the public opinion on the truthfulness of this information. If you fail to do so, we shall assume that all this information is true. Which will be anther reason for the Moldovan citizens to vote against a party which ignores their interests”, the MAE said in an open letter to Vladimir Voronin. After reading the letter at a news conference on Monday, MAE's leader Anatol Petrencu explained he possessed information that Voronin had agreed with Medvedev to change the name of the state, transform it into two states with equal rights – Moldova and Transnistria –, to outlaw the seal and the tricolor flag, and to shift to the Cyrillic script, while making Russian the second official language.
