There is political consensus between the PSRM, PDM and Pro Moldova as to the necessity of investing a Government with full powers that would manage the pandemic and economic crisis. Representatives of the three parties said that discussions are held on the parliamentary platform and only the PAS of all the political forces that are represented in Parliament insists on the triggering of snap legislative elections as soon as possible. The rest of the parties plead for the investing of a technocratic Government that would work for six-nine months until the economic situation is remedied and until 70% of the population is immunized, IPN reports.

Pro Moldova MP Andrian Candu said the triggering of snap elections at any cost and the holding of elections in times of a pandemic can push the health system towards a collapse. They are for investing a temporary, anti-crisis Government with full powers, preferably politically unaffiliated and technocratic. “This could manage the country during six-nine months and snap elections could be then triggered through the Government’s resignation and the failure to invest a new Government by two attempts or by blocking the Parliament’s activity,” Andrian Candu stated in the talk show “Red Button” on the public TV channel Moldova 1.

The Socialists said all the parliamentary parties, except for the PAS, want a professional Government to be voted in for a definite period of time. The country needs particular problems to be solved by an invested Government.

“We realize the logic of the PAS – they want to strengthen the result achieved in the presidential elections, but our goal is to manage the pandemic situation. A National Salvation Government should be voted in and this should have full powers so as to be able to manage this difficult situation,” said Socialist MP Corneliu Furculiță.

The Democrats said March 23 will bring nothing new on the political arena in Chisinau, while the prolongation of this crisis until the end of this month will have a very high price for the country given the high number of daily infections with the novel coronavirus and the serious state of the economy.

“The investing of a Government is not someone’s whim. It is something necessary for solving pressing problems. The state budget law needs to be amended. We need 150 million lei for buying vaccines,” noted Democratic MP Nicolae Ciubuc.

Earlier, President Maia Sandu said that an application to consider the possibility of dissolving Parliament could be filed to the Constitutional Court after March 23, when it will be three months of the resignation tendered by the Chicu Government and the legislature could be dissolved for the incapacity to invest a new Government.
