The 35 newly-elected MPs of the Party of Socialists signed a common statement, promising they will not betray the voters and will form part of the Socialist parliamentary group throughout the mandate, IPN reports.
In a press briefing, the PSRM’s secretary for ideology Ion Ceban presented the statement signed by all the newly-elected Socialist MPs by which these pledge to work in the new legislative body as part of a united team. “If pressure is exerted to leave the group, they will prefer to vacate the seat of MP than to betray the team and the people’s vote”.
Party of Socialists president Zinaida Grechanyi said the party’s team is united and this statement comes to refute press speculations that some of the Socialist MPs would be bought. After the elections, the PSRM was repeatedly attacked by former election runners, especially those of the bloc NOW. The Party of Socialists had a correct conduct and didn’t attack those from NOW, while criticism in the election campaign was leveled only at the government.
Zinaida Grechanyi noted that until the seats of MP are officially validated, the Party of Socialists will not have talks on the formation of a parliamentary alliance with other parties.
