PDM Mesaj Către Ambasade
PDM Mesaj Către Ambasade
On June 11, the Democratic Party of Moldova (PDM) has renewed the call
on parliamentary parties to join a comprehensive dialogue for finding
solutions to the current political and constitutional crisis. PDM’s chief
negotiator, Vlad Cebotari, recalled that the day before, on June 10, the
Democrats had invited the parliamentary factions of PSRM (Socialist Party,
led by Zinaida Greceanîi), PAS (Action and Solidarity Party, led by Maia
Sandu) and PPDA (Dignity and Truth Party, led by Andrei Năstase) to
discuss ways to overcome the current situation in Chisinau. So far, despite
the undoubted need for dialogue, endorsed by the international community,
the three parliamentary factions have not answered PDM’s call.
Key political leaders also endorsed the same principles. ALDE Chairman
Guy Verhofstadt said on June 11 that “it is essential for all actors to respect
the rightful state, to show restraint and to agree on a path forward through
political dialogue”. Concurrently, Andi Cristea, former Chairman of the
European Parliament’s Delegation to Moldova, stressed that snap elections
may be the only solution to the current political crisis.
What happens next. The Pavel Filip Government is the one that holds
legitimacy granted by the law. In order to allow the formation of a full-
fledged government, since the existing one has rather administrative
prerogatives, a political solution must be found as soon as possible,
through dialogue. Further on, considering all proofs of president Igor
Dodon’s political and financial vassalage on Russia, the international
community must also address the legitimacy of the president’s positioning
and support for the Maia Sandu government, which he illegally negotiated
on behalf of the Socialist Party.
