Acting President Mihai Ghimpu said he will return to the decree to institute the Soviet Occupation Day on June 28, which was declared unconstitutional. In the program “Public Life” held on Radio Moldova on July 17, Mihai Ghimpu said he will pronounce on the Constitutional Court’s judgment after he receives the motivated part of the decision, Info-Prim Neo reports. Mihai Ghimpu considers it wasn’t a strict necessity for the court to examine his decree, which was challenged by the Communists Party. He says similar decrees were declared by the Constitutional Court as constitutional in 1996. “This time, the Court acted as in the case of the Parliament’s decision on Muruianu’s dismissal (Ion Muruianu, the president of the Supreme Court of Justice – e.n.),” Mihai Ghimpu said, adding some of the decisions are purely within the Parliament’s or the President’s competence. He also said he anticipated what the Court’s decision will be as the decree was examined in a hurry. In the same program, Mihai Ghimpu said the Russian Foreign Ministry’s statements were “Soviet or tsarist like”. He referred to the statements that the decree concerning June 28 alienates the Transnistrian region from Moldova and negatively influences the settlement of the Transnistrian conflict. The Acting President also denied other statements made by Russian politicians, who said the wine problem derived from his decree. “We should not live as Moscow wants and allow being manipulated in all the situations. We have the same rights as Russia,” he said. Mihai Ghimpu stressed the Moldovan wine companies should look for other markets besides the Russian one.
