The Opposition says it will not participate in voting and will not put forward candidates for elected parliamentary posts. The three parties – the PL, PLDM and AMN – are also decided not to take part in the election of the President of Moldova as they want early elections, Info-Prim Neo reports. “We will not participate in the election of the Speaker and Deputy Speakers and will accept no post. We will not allow ourselves to be persuaded and will make everything possible for our colleagues not to get the 61 seat so that we could have early elections,” the president of the Moldova Noastra Alliance (AMN) Serafim Urecheanu said after the first sitting of the Parliament. The leaders of the three parties expressed indignation at the way that the constitution sitting was held. They consider that the Communist Party (PCRM), which holds most of the seats, decided to postpone the election of the Parliament’s executive until next week because they do not have candidates for these posts and are looking for the single vote they need to elect the head of state. “It is the start of Communist dictatorship. The agenda was not discussed with the parliamentary groups and was not voted on. It was just nonsense, a meeting that lasted for several minutes. Probably, the Communists want to find the 61st seat until May 12,” Urecheanu said. “This is an example of dictatorship: they convened us, talked and went away. This is usurpation of the power and dictatorship in the Moldovan state. That’s why, we will pursue our aim – not to give our vote so that we do not have this dictatorship during the next four years,” the president of the Liberal Party (PL) Mihai Ghimpu said. “Even if the legal requirement to constitute the Parliament was fulfilled, the Communists resorted to a stratagem in order to continue the talks inside the PCRM, as at least the Head of Parliament was to be elected today,” said Vlad Filat, president of the Liberal Democratic Party (PLDM). “I believe the Communists are not unanimous as regards the candidates for Speaker and President of the country,” he added. On the other hand, the Communist MP Vladimir Turcan told the reporters that the constitution meeting was held in accordance with the Regulations of the Parliament. According to him, the next sitting was scheduled for May 12 so that all the political groups manage to put up candidates for the elected posts.
