Moldova has a single option for a prosperous future, political analyst

Moldova has a single option for a prosperous future and it consists in strengthening the democratic forces. Any other possible way leads to political deadlock. The statement has been made by the executive director of the IDIS Viitorul think tank, Igor Munteanu, Info-Prim Neo reports. “Having 53 seats, the opposition can create a framework for communication and dialogue to set up the administration structures of the Parliament, to appoint a prime-minister and the Cabinet. This could be the possible development of the events that may trigger the much-awaited change in Moldova,” Igor Munteanu says. “Both the Liberals and the Democrats have preferred to negotiate on principles and not on short-term interests. It's a good start, which will enliven the politics, economy and society,” the analyst believes. Igor Munteanu considers that a possible coalition with the PCRM is not possible. “The Democratic party got shame by being in opposition. Its members accepted no concessions and were subjected by a discriminating treatment on behalf of the Communists during the whole race. The PDM considers itself a member of the Socialist Internationale, which basis itself on social-democratic principles and has no link with the authoritarian regimes, as the PCRM is,” says the director of IDIS Viitorul. Igor Munteanu sees no reasons why the opposition may not reach consensus. “The opposition parties have all the chances to change the things in the country, and to change the people's mentality.”
