Prime Minister Zinaida Greceanii, who is a candidate for MP on behalf of the Communist Party, admitted to using administrative resources in the election campaign. At a news conference on Tuesday, Greceanii said that the legislation does not ban the Prime Minister from doing this, Info-Prim Neo reports. “All my colleagues that cannot do this resigned and do not use the administrative resources. There is no such ban on the Prime Minister in the legislation,” Greceanii said. “The post of Prime Minister is an administrative resource and this is true no matter what they say,” she said. Asked if this is fair in relation to other election runners, Zinaida Greceanii answered: “They will have access to administrative resources when they become Prime Ministers. The law does not ban them.” Greceanii also said that she cannot go with her hands empty at the meetings with voters as election runner, but did not deny that she offered aid as Prime Minister. “Can the Prime Minister not lend a hand when meeting a person in need as it happened recently with a one-parent family with nine children that live in poverty?” Greceanii asked the reporters. “The election campaign will be over in several days, thank God,” the Premier said. “I say thank God because an election campaign during a world economic crisis can seriously affect a country as it challenges the poise of the people and the stability in the country,” she said, urging the population to take part on these elections that are “of major importance for the country’s future”. The opposition parties, nongovernmental organizations and mass-media pointed to multiple cases when representatives of the ruling party, the PCRM, used administrative resources in the election campaign for the April 5 legislative elections.
