The National Liberal Party (PNL) is afraid it could lose the first place in the ballot papers, Info-Prim Neo reports. The PNL leader said the place obtained by her party by draw is deserved. At the same time, Vitalia Pavlichenko expressed her concern that persons with authority might hinder the party from keeping the first place. “I think we won the first position in ballots owing to our sincere effort to bring Moldova closer to the NATO and the EU by union with Romania,” Vitalia Pavlichenko said. She also said she heard telephone conversations in the corridors of the CEC that the PNL should be removed from the electoral race or suspended so that it lost the first place.
