The leaders of the parliamentary opposition have reiterated they are a ready for the early ballot.
“I am more concerned about whom we are going to rule this country with after the elections, because the comrades will leave the Parliament. Certainly, the coalition of democratic forces, which will be created after parliamentary elections, will give us real possibilities to elect the country's president, to appoint the government, since the Communists have demonstrated their total impotence to govern the country,” said Serafim Urecheanu, the leader of Our Moldova Alliance.
