Briefness first and foremost – January 09, 2019 IPN digest

The Shor Party’s 51 candidates for MP in the national constituency were registered as electoral contenders in the parliamentary elections of February 24, 2019. The party is the fifth electoral competitor registered in the national constituency. Secretary of the Central Election Commission Veaceslav Agrigoroae said the party removed the irregularities identified in the January 3 meeting, due to which the party could not be registered on the first attempt.


Wester analyst Vladimir Socor said the parliamentary elections of this February are the decisive event of 2019. “The stake is not Moldova’s return to an Eurasian area or the European integration. The stake is to bring the situation in Moldova more or less to normality. The situation in the Republic of Moldova is not normal and is gloomy,” the analyst stated in an interview for Radio Free Europe.

“The Republic of Moldova is profoundly sick. Such a situation when the state was usurped by a group of interests led by one person, when the rule of law was eliminated and there is no free market as this is controlled by private interests and the media and justice are practically controlled is witnessed in no country in Europe. This is the situation in a profoundly sick state that is actually close to failure according to the normal international criteria. I do not mean technical or financial failure. I mean political and moral failure,” said the analyst.

The analyst said all the allies of Vlad Plahotniuc were simply liquidated. Among these were Veaceslav Platon, Vlad Filat, Mihai Ghimpu and Dorin Chirtoacă and the list can be continued. Other allies of Mister Plahotniuc remain allies for fear as they are vulnerable and Ilan Shor is a conclusive example.

The property statements presented to the authorities, besides incomes and expenses, should also contain the sums that these citizens contributed to the state budget, political analyst Victor Ciobanu stated following the publication of property statements of candidates for MPs, who run on party lists, on the website of the Central Election Commission. “I’m not against having rich people, but I want to see how much they contribute to the state budget, the country’s economy as we see a very important thing: when the most influential person in the state keeps all his property in offshore areas and thus pays no taxes on these assess, I have to argument in favor of his intentions to do good to the country’s economy,” stated the analyst.

More than 20,000 citizens from the diaspora have registered beforehand for the parliamentary elections of February 24, 2019. The figure is much higher than in the presidential elections of November 2016, when over 3,500 Moldovans who settled abroad registered in advance.

According to the National Public Health Agency, the number of animals diagnosed with rabies in 2018 rose from 49 to 91, while of affected administrative territories from 25 to 29. If a person is attacked by an animal, this should swiftly wash the wound with soap under running water, treat it with iodine and seek medical assistance. Anti-rabies assistance, including curative-prophylactic vaccination, is provided free to each person who needs it.

To reduce the number of rabies among animals the Ministry of Agriculture, Regional Development and Environment and the Hunters and Fishermen’s Association should encourage the unlimited hunting of foxes. Also, the National Food Safety Agency should ensure the immunization of pets against rabies, while the local public authorities should take measures to vaccinate the animals without owners.
