The Moldova Noastra Alliance (AMN) sums up four years of work. At the party\u2019s eighth Congress on December 12, the current leader of the AMN Serafim Urecheanu spoke about the results achieved, but the largest part of his discourse focused on the problems faced by the organization, Info-Prim Neo reports. <\/p>\n
In the progress report for 2004-2009, Serafim Urecheanu took stock of the past events, saying that at a Congress in 2006 AMN was alone after abandoned by the partners of the Democratic Moldova Bloc, was not present at the local level and was absent in the foreign policy. The first good news came after the local elections of 2007, when members of the party became leaders of many districts and villages. <\/p>\n
The AMN leader said in the April 2009 elections, the MPs of the AMN proved that they are straightforward when they refused to give the PCRM one vote to elect a Communist head of state \u201cin exchange for millions of euros and high-ranking positions\u201d. <\/p>\n
Another accomplishment mentioned by Urecheanu was the fact that AMN was a determinant force in creating the Alliance for European Integration immediately after the July early elections.<\/p>\n
\u201dThe April and July elections have been a serious challenge for our party, but we preserved the chance of change. It was probably the hardest campaign in the history of the AMN because we did not fight only with the Communists, but also with other political parties,\u201d the AMN leader stressed.<\/p>\n
Speaking about the modest results achieved in the elections – 11 seats of MP after the April 5 elections and 7 seats after the July 29 elections, Serafim Urecheanu said that it was due to the fact that not all the candidates on the list deserved being MPs. <\/p>\n
He also said that the AMN will more thoroughly select the candidates for the 2010 early elections and will establish better cooperation relations between the central organization and the branches.<\/p>\n
The opinion polls were another trouble. \u201cThe polls commissioned by the PCRM, and other opponents of the AMN lately, say the rating of the AMN goes down. However, the rating of the AMN leader goes up,\u201d Serafim Urecheanu said.<\/p>\n
\u201dWhile preparing for new elections, we will engage members with organizational skills and great powers of persuasion. We must modernize the party.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Congress is to elect the president of the party. When the news story was published, it was not yet known whether Serafim Urecheanu will remain in the post or there will be chosen another leader. <\/p>\n
A number 439 delegates of the invited 451 came to the Congress of the AMN. The attendees include guests from the United States, members of the European Parliament and the Parliament of Romania.<\/p>\n
