Chiril Gaburici’s announcement about his resignation from the post of Prime Minister shows not only that the country entered a governmental crisis, but also that Moldova is in a profound political, economic, financial and social crisis, former Premier Iurie Leanca said, quoted by IPN.

The unaffiliated lawmaker noted that the crisis started in February, when two parties, supported by the Communists, decided to install a minority government without solid parliamentary support. “Today the two parties must assume responsibility for the political crisis. In fact, in a mature democracy, they would resign and would allow others to rule the parties in an attempt to create a majority, a powerful government pursuing particular objectives,” said the politician.

He noted that now the ruling parties must realize that on November 30 last year the people voted for continuing what was positive. Tax evasion with double-entry bookkeeping must be combated so that the budget revenues increase. The justice sector must be reformed and the discussions with Brussels on the designation of a High Representative of the European Commission for the justice sector reform in Moldova must be resumed. A mission of 20-30 European judges and prosecutors should work in Moldova during several years, helping and pressurizing Moldovan justice. The communication with the IMF must also be immediately resumed as only a memorandum with this organization will enable to break the deadlock.

Referring to the campaign prior to the June 14 local general elections, Iurie Leanca said it lacked consistency and was held rather behind the contestants’ back, with the state institutions becoming unlimitedly involved in it and intimidating the contenders that do not suit the power.
