President Voronin: I'll do everything not to allow early elections

Moldova's president in office, Vladimir Voronin, the leader of the Communists Party (PCRM) and a parliamentarian in the new parliament, stated in a program on NIT TV station, he would do his best not to allow early elections, Info-Prim Neo reports. “If they are patriots, the opposition will not cause early elections. I'll do my best not to allow this thing,” said Voronin, in Russian, in the program called “Conversations with the president”. He showed himself almost certain there would be no early elections: “However I don't believe it will happen because it must not happen, because it's bad for everybody.” At the same time, the Communist leader stated his party was the best prepared for possible early elections: “We are not afraid we'll lose some 10-20 seats. We are able to lead this country.” Vladimir Voronin says the opposition should not pop up for early elections. “They should think well whether they will get at least 41 seats they have now,” Voronin said. He doubted the ability of the opposition parties to run an election campaign by themselves. “In the race, they did not go alone, but were led by hand as children. How are they going to do this now and on what money?” the president asked. The president kept attacking the three opposition parties during the whole broadcast. Voronin says the opposition is interested there should be instability in the country, “permanent elections”, “fires”. The president said the early election will lead to worse financial crisis, and the responsibility for this worsening of the economic situation will rest with the opposition. “The financial crisis is strangling us, we have serious problems, nobody buys from us because we're in a crisis, the budget has not got incomes in the first months. We have the duty to raise the salaries. And they play as children with the golden vote, the silver vote... Where are we going to get, if we play like this? We'll not have money in the budget to give to those 22 districts of theirs,” Voronin said. The president reminded that the parliamentary elections cost 40 million lei. At the same time, according to him, the damages caused by the April 7 protests amount to about 700 million lei, “that is almost a billion.” Earlier, the three opposition parties entering the Parliament (PL, PLDM and AMN) together having 41 seats, stated they wouldn't participate in electing a Communist president. The PCRM holds 60 mandates in the new parliament, being short of just one vote to elect the president. In case the president is not elected, the parliament will be dissolved and early elections will be announced.
