A part of the participants in the protest mounted by the Civic Platform “Dignity and Truth” and the Party “Platform Dignity and Truth” in the Great National Assembly Square of Chisinau picketed the State Residence in Condrita in the afternoon of January 13.
One of the leaders of the Platform “Dignity and Truth” Vasile Nastase has told IPN that the protesters called on the head of state to reject the candidate for Prime Minister Vlad Plahotniuc and to accept a candidate of integrity for this post.
According to Vasile Nastase, the people went to Condrita by personal cars. “The event involved about 700-800 people. There were a lot of police officers in front of the State Residence,” stated Nastase.
Meanwhile, the presidential press service informed that President Nicolae Timofti rejected the Democratic Party’s candidate for Prime Minister Vlad Plahotniuc. The head of state suggested identifying another candidate for premiership by January 14, 12 noon.
