The National Unity Party’s candidate for President Octavian Țâcu on October 7 started his election campaign in Ungheni, alongside party mates and supporters. The candidate said his key objective is to bring the banks of the Prut River closer, with the reunification being mentioned by all those who gave speeches in support of Octavian Țîcu, IPN reports.
“The reunification is my view, as a historian, intellectual and politician. In the current campaign, we will not have electoral opponents. We will have a country project that we will present to the voters of the left, the center and the right because outside the reunification, the citizens of this country do not have the chance to have a future,” state Octavian Țâcu.
The candidate said that in the current campaign, both the team of the PUN and he as the party’s president undertake five commitments. The first commitment is to dissolve Parliament, which is no longer representative as it is a Parliament that smells of Plahotniuc, Dodon and Shor, while the country needs a pro-European and pro-Romania parliamentary majority that would take Moldova to the EU through integration with Romania. The second commitment is to overcome the international isolation caused by the unwise policy pursued by Igor Dodon by his servilism to Moscow and by his disqualifying attitude to Romania. The third commitment is to reunify the infrastructure with Romania’s: terrestrial, railways, energy, digital, communications.
“More than anywhere, here, in Ungheni, we know what reunification of infrastructure means as we have the railway bridge, the gas pipeline that goes through Ungheni and are waiting for the Chisinau-Iasi-Târgu Mureș highway that is to take us to the big European capitals. Ungheni was the first that removed the barbed wire on the Prut,” stated Octavian Țâcu.
The fourth commitment is to align Moldova’s education system with the Romanian one. According to the candidate, without high-quality education, we will not have a future. The last commitment is to reintegrate the security, defense and legal order systems with those of Romania and of the Euro-Atlantic bodies. “Without such a security shield, we cannot dream of a decent future,” said the candidate.
“I think Octavian Țâcu can be a President of our reunification with our assistance. It won’t be easy, but if we manage to explain to everyone that the reunification is first of all for the benefit of the people and less of the elites, the ordinary people will enjoy the benefits of the union as the pensions and salaries will be much higher, the health system will be much more modern and the young people will have access to a modern education system,” stated PUN secretary general Anatol Șalaru.
The competitors running for President are: Renato Usatyi, Andrei Năstase, Tudor Deliu, Igor Dodon, Violeta Ivanov, Maia Sandu, Octavian Țîcu, and Dorin Chirtoacă.
