The independent Viorel Melnic has given up his MP seat, it was announced today in a Parliament press release.

Viorel Melnic said in a statement that the current coalition in the Moldovan Parliament is displaying “a vengeful behaviour” rather than promoting European integration reforms, an attitude which he believes results in alienating specialists. 

Melnic also complains that in the current circumstances the role of independent lawmakers “has been reduced to zero”. “The passage of bills with extreme haste and in violation of procedures unavoidably casts doubt on the quality of the entire lawmaking process.”

Viorel Melnic was elected in the single-member South Transnistria Constituency, which includes the cities of Slobozia, Tighina and Tiraspol.
