The Liberal Party’s candidate for President Mihai Ghimpu promises to make new revelations about the theft of the US$1 billion and to ensure the union with Romania if he becomes Head of State. He developed the issue in the program “Friday with Anatolie Golea” on RTR Moldova channel, IPN reports.

“I haven’t yet descended the tree. Despite the made arrests and the convictions in the case of the stolen US$1 billion, something bothered me and I realized that something was wrong. I thus made inquiries to different institutions. I have all the answers and next week will make new revelations,” promised the Liberal leader.

Mihai Ghimpu said the time is now favorable for effecting Moldova’s union with Romania and, if he becomes Head of State, he will form a ‘council of wise people” that will deal with the union. “Polls show 78% of the people want the union with Romania. The situation in Europe is different. I know that the President, Speaker and Prime Minister of Romania are not against the union. Everything depends on us. It is the people who decide,” he stated.

According to Mihai Ghimpu, it’s not worth insisting on statehood if the state cannot ensure decent living conditions for the people, and the union with Romania is the only way of getting rid of poverty.
