There are three clans of political and economic pressure in Moldova, Vitalia Pavlicenco

There are three clans of political and economic pressure that hinder the formation of a government coalition in Moldova, considers Vitaliei Pavlicenco, charwoman of the extraparliamentary National Liberal Party (PNL), Info-Prim Neo reports. In a program on Radio Moldova on Saturday, Vitalia Pavlicenco said the first clan is the Communists Party, the second consists of the oligarchs of the Democratic Party, while the third is the Liberal Democratic Party of Moldova. The leader of the PNL stated that attempts are made to take power, but nobody wants to yield. Moreover, the leader of the PLDM Vlad Filat is trying to attribute all the successes of the Liberal-Democratic alliance to him and his part. This is the reason why the talks are so difficult, while the PDM is negotiating both with the PCRM and the former colleagues from the alliance, Vitalia Pavlicenco said. She also said that the November 28 elections were rigged not on the election day, but during the campaign. The Moldovans voted for shirts, gowns, oil, flour, rice, perfume, 50 lei before or after voting or even for a glass of alcohol. The ruling parties made full use of the administrative resources and instruments, Vitalia Pavlicenco stressed. In the same program, Sergiu Coropceanu, secretary general of the extraparliamentary Social Democratic Party (PSD), said only a broad coalition can resolve the political crisis in Moldova, which has lasted for about two years. According to Coropceanu, the leaders of the parliamentary parties fully depend on foreign factors. The influence from outside comes both from the East and the West. This is why the parties that entered the legislative body hold the talks behind closed doors. The negotiation process is not transparent as the parties said it would be, the PSD secretary general stated. The representatives of the PNL and PSD also spoke about the initiative to create a council to institutionalize the future alliance that would reduce the dissension within the government coalition. Vitalia Pavlicenco said such a practice existed in 1998 – 2001, when the Alliance for Democracy and Reform set up such a council and it was functional. Owing to such an organization, the Sturza Government was successful, the leader of the PNL considers. Sergiu Coropceanu wondered why the council was not created a year and a half ago when the Alliance for European Integration was formed. He expressed his skepticism about the success of such institutionalization.
