Sergiu Mocanu: People's Action Movement will not participate in 2009 race, but I will be very active

The former advisor to President Voronin, Sergiu Mocanu, has stated that his political movement won't race in the 2009 parliamentary elections, regardless of whether it will be registered or not. Sergiu Mocanu however told a news conference Friday he would “involve very actively in the political life,” Info-Prim Neo reports. Mocanu says he “will be no competitor to interfering into others' games,” but not participating in the elections is to prove that he does not use the penal inquest against his sons with political purposes. “Since the moment I made mea culpa for very many compromises, the politics I am making in this country is for a longer term, I don;t have immediate goals,” he said. Sergiu Mocanu has reiterated his two sons having taken refuge on the territory of the Romanian Embassy to Chisinau will not leave its quarters until they guaranteed to be searched in freedom. He dismisses as untrue the allegations that he would have put the Romanian state in a delicate situation, sine “Romania has been in this situation for 200 years, regarding its relations with Moldova.” “I put in a delicate situation the ones living with idealistic thoughts about the relations between Romania and Moldova, ” Mocanu said, hinting the diplomatic mission is not functional. He accuses the Moldovan police of “being very dangerous people”, and Moldova is a police state. The politicians says “everything is done in darkness in this country”, but he “switched on the light”. He says the Voronin clan acts in Moldova, which “implies huge risks for Communists, democrats and ordinary citizens.” “It's not the Communist regime having brought us to this situation. Voronin finds is suitable to blame the Communist regime. It's a strategy to mislead the people and the West,” Sergiu Mocanu says. The Mocanu brothers' lawyer, Ion Dron, says the police acted illegally, as it arrested the sons without officially presenting subpoenas. He says “someone selected and trained the police dealing with this probe.” Roman and Adrian Mocanu are suspected of beating a young man at a disco in Chisinau on August 10. They were arrested on September 20, and then were released, banned to leave their domicile. On September 25 they jumped over the fence of the Romanian Embassy, asking for Romania's protection, being also Romanian citizens. A Chisinau court issued arrest warrants on them on October 6, arguing the sons of former presidential advisor disobeyed the previous writ of staying at home. The Mocanus call it a political dossier commissioned by President Vladimir Voronin.
