Marian Lupu does not rule out reduction of opposition ranks

The leader of the Democratic Party Marian Lupu said that he does not possess information about some of the MPs’ intention to leave the parliamentary opposition, but admits that different scenarios are possible. “The membership of the Alliance for European Integration may remain the same or may increase as members of the opposition may join us,” Marian Lupu told the press during an event on Saturday. He said that a metamorphosis may take place and the parliamentary majority will increase in number. “Something like this happens in political conjunctures, especially when the head of state is elected. We may expect such changes. They will bring only beneficial effects as the exiting format of the parliamentary majority will be strengthened,” said the Democratic leader. Marian Lupu also said that holding a majority, the ruling alliance will be able to implement the constitutional reform by other ways than the referendum, which implies large costs.
