ROSCA REFUTES RUMORS ABOUT HIS BECOMING HEAD OF STATE

Chisinau.   Moldovan Deputy Prime Minister, leader of the Christian Democratic Popular Party Iurie Rosca has dispelled rumors that he had allegedly held negotiations with outgoing President Vladimir Voronin concerning his ‘inheriting’ the essential state post.

Today, Rosca published a statement in his Flux newspaper saying that he had never discussed this topic with President Voronin.

“This joke is aimed at bringing discord between the president and myself, and to demonstrate that, allegedly, Rosca has rushed into election campaign, and keeps on boasting that he is going to become successor to Vladimir Voronin. I’ve got a feeling that two former high-ranked Moldovan statesmen stumbled precisely over their ardent desire to become a successor, and now they both have a reason for dissatisfaction, bad moods and annoyance. As for me, I have no such problems”, Rosca said.

Judging by his words, he regards Voronin as a responsible and experienced politician who does not give empty promises. Rosca says he is satisfied with the place he occupies in the country’s political life, and he does not need giving such promises.

“No matter who will be the next President of the Republic of Moldova, the chief thing is, the new head of state must be a decent, well-prepared person, and Moldova’s great chance will be if all parliamentarians vote for the person”, said Iurie Rosca.
