Dorin Chirtoaca, Vladimir Filat and Serafim Urecheanu have ended the negotiations with the ruling party, at which Marian Lupu, the president in office of the Parliament, “partially” has recognized the political opposition is not behind the riots at the Parliament and the Presidency. The talks have lasted for about 40 minutes, Info-Prim Neo reports.
According to Marian Lupu, the rioters' actions bear an anti-state character, specifying that “hoisting a foreign flag endangers Moldova's sovereignty” (The students entered the Parliament by force and hoisted the EU flag on the roof – e.n.)
Chisinau mayor Dorin Chirtoaca, a deputy president of the Liberal Party, has stated he expects the authorities not to involve the opposition in these protests, which were orchestrated by provokers, according to him. Chirtoaca has asked the authorities to make a public denial in this respect. He has asked to ensure the citizens' right to evince their views about the polls and asked the Central Election Commission to take a stance about the evidence on rigging the elections presented by the opposition.
Vladimir Filat, the president of the Liberal Democratic Party (PLDM), has said the Communist authorities have guaranteed to offer the opposition parties all the minutes from the polling stations. Filat is confident frauds will be traced in those documents, on the basis of which the opposition will ask for repeated elections.
Serafim Urecheanu, the president of Moldova Noastra Alliance, has asked the protesters not to attack the police.
In the opinion of Stefan Uratu, who ran as an independent candidate, the three center-right parties (PL, PLDM and AMN) should set up a national concord council, which should call early elections in three months.
The three leaders urged the mob in front of the Government to protest peacefully and have gone to the Parliament and Presidency to bring the demonstrators to the Great National Assembly Square.
