The Social Democratic Party (PSD) will gain no less than 15% of the votes in the April 5 elections, stated its president Dumitru Braghis at a news conference, Info-Prim Neo reports. Dumitru Braghis says: “within each constituency we'll send PSD teams to promote the electoral offer of the party. Now the PSD can cover 1800 polling stations of those 1957 to be opened in the country.” According to him, of those 103 candidates on the list, 28 come from Chisinau and 75 from the rest of the country. He mentioned the chairman of the Chisinau Municipal Council (CMC), a Chisinau deputy mayor, two district presidents, four mayors. There are 28 engineers, 26 teachers, 15 economists, 16 lawyers, 11 doctors, 7 agronomists, 2 journalists on the list. “This allows us to maintain that the PSD's list generally matches the society's requirements,” Braghis said. He is confident no party will hold a majority in the next parliament, and the PSD offers the democratic parties to form a coalition, against certain conditions: Moldova not joining military blocs, strategic partnership with the European Union and Russia, crafting an anti-crisis plan. If such a coalition fails, the PSD suggests to form a wider one, after negotiating with separate MPs, not with their factions. The PSD will support a non-party member for the position of Moldovan president. The PSD does not rule out that it could propose Dumitru Braghis for president, Iurie Bolboceanu – for parliament president, and Eduard Musuc – for premier. Eduard Musuc is the second on the PSD's list. “The party will decide whether I stay as CMC chairman, or will go to the Parliament, and it's possible for me to take an office in the Government,” Musuc said. The PSD will run with an electoral program titled “Strong Moldova – Strong Economy – Better Life!” It will launch its offer and team on February 15, at 11.00, in the National Palace in Chisinau.
