President Igor Dodon considers the amendment of the Constitution to introduce the European integration course in it is to the detriment of the balance in society. He said he will not promulgate the law and the Socialist parliamentary group will not support it either, IPN reports.
“What kind of pro-Moldova approach is this? It is evident that the PDM hasn’t yet clarified its own convictions and wants to profit from two political ideas without being credible with regard to any of these,” President Dodon wrote on his Facebook page. He noted that the geopolitical option can be decided in elections or by referendum.
Igor Dodon reiterated that he is for a social balance and for the avoidance of any dangerous precedents in relation to the country’s supreme law.
In a press briefing on October 9, the leader of the PDM Vlad Plahotniuc said the enshrining of the European integration course in the Constitution as a basic element of the national strategy of the Republic of Moldova should not be negotiated politically and should not be part of political games on the issue. The bill will be put to the vote in one of this week’s sittings of Parliament.
