Liberal-Democratic MP Tudor Deliu considers the parliamentary majority created with the participation of seven Lib-Dems is not fully legal. In an interview for Radio Free Europe, this said that under the Parliament’s Regulations, the parliamentary majority is considered legal when it consists of a group or a coalition of groups, IPN reports.
“I repeat, the majority is formed of groups or a coalition of groups, but today we have a coalition that consists of two parliamentary groups and factions of persons who left their groups. I cannot say that this is a parliamentary coalition or a majority consisting of several groups,” stated the lawmaker.
Referring to the post of Prime Minister, Tudor Deliu voiced hope that a person who enjoys the support of the people will be named to this post. “I do not want to give names because those who now protest in the central square of Chisinau voted for the current MPs and if the proposed candidate does not enjoy the people’s support, the events could degenerate,” he stated.
Tudor Deliu is sure that the Liberal Democratic Party will manage to improve its image because most of its MPs act in accordance with the program that they presented to voters. “I think that if in opposition, we can also struggle, even more. When part of a coalition, you have to keep your mouth shut because you have to obey decisions taken by this majority, which are sometimes far from what you expect,” he stated.
Seven MPs of the PLDM decided to take part in governance and to give a vote of confidence to the Government that will be headed by nominee Pavel Filip. In a meeting held last weekend, the National Political Council of the PLDM decided that the Liberal-Democratic parliamentary group will join the opposition and demanded that the seven should withdraw their signatures in support of the Democratic candidate.
