Opposition: “Let’s make Communist government past history on July 29”

The 41 MPs of the Opposition parliamentary groups of the Liberal Party (PL), the Liberal Democratic Party (PLDM) and the Moldova Noastra Alliance (AMN) made a last appeal to the voters in the current electoral campaign, calling on them to participate in the July 29 elections. They urged the people to vote for freedom, democracy and Moldova’s European future. The candidates made the joint appeal in the Square of Europe in Chisinau on July 27, Info-Prim Neo reports. The PLDM president Vlad Filat said that the victory of June 3, when the Opposition did not vote for a Communist head of state, is insufficient. “On July 29, there will be made the last effort that should make the Communist government past history by vote,” Filat said. “We are proud of these 41 MPs who laid down their MP permits in order not to participate in the corruptions acts of Voronin. On July 29, we have the historical chance of bidding farewell to the Communists and choosing a democratic and responsible government,” said the leader of the AMN Serafim Urecheanu. In the same connection, PL president Mihai Ghimpu said that the united Opposition assumes responsibility to break the impasse and bring Moldova closer to the EU so that every citizen, regardless of the nationality, feels that they are citizens of a state that builds their future. Certain that they will win the July 29 elections, the leaders of the three parties said that they have already decided how the posts in the future government will be distributed. They denied that they plan to stage protests after the elections. “Dear people, be calm and don’t believe the rumors. Not we, but our colleagues could organize protests because after July 30 they will be in Opposition already,” Serafim Urecheanu said. At the start of the electoral campaign, the PL, PLDM and AMN decided to run separately in the July 29 early elections. But they agreed to coordinate their actions and not to attack each other.
