Serafim Urecheanu: Parliament will convene on September 10

The Parliament will come together for a new sitting on Thursday, September 10. Such a decision was made by the leaders of the Alliance for European Integration (AEI) during consultations on September 3. The leader of the Moldova Noastra Alliance (AMN) Serafim Urecheanu has told Info-Prim Neo that the leaders of the AEI insist that the parliamentary sittings be held on Thursday and Friday, as until present. Asked about the agenda of the next meeting, Serafim Urecheanu said that it has not been decided yet. The AMN leader reiterated that the members of the Alliance will not participate in the meeting scheduled by the PCRM for September 4. At the last sitting of the Parliament, the president of honor of the PDM Dumitru Diacov proposed holding the next meeting on September 4. The party’s president Marian Lupu said that Diacov’s proposal is logical as it would be an occasion for all the MPs to meet and discuss. He yet said that it would be reasonable to expect the Constitutional Court’s decision on the contestation filed by the PCRM. On September 1, the Communists Party challenged the legality of the Parliament’’s sitting of August 28, which was continued in the absence of the PCRM, and the election of the PL leader Mihai Ghimpu as Speaker in the Constitutional Court. Constitutional law experts say that if the Constitutional Court rules in favor of the PCRM, the Parliament will have to start work from the very beginning. In such a case, the AEI could again field Mihai Ghimpu for Speaker. “We will elect him again,” Serafim Urecheanu said.
