PLUGARU, PETRACHE WARNING AGAINST DICTATORSHIP OF MINORITY

11.03.2010Lawyers Anatol Plugaru [Moldova’s Minister of State Security in 1991-1992] and Mihai Petrache [ex-Chairman of the Centrist Union of Moldova] presume that after the downfall of the Communist dictatorship in July 2009, Moldova seems to be entering a new trend – consolidation of the dictatorship of a minority. That’s how the two free-lance lawyers perceive the yesterday’s decision of the governing Alliance for European Integration leaders to organize a national referendum on adopting a new Constitution.

TRANSNISTRIAN COMMUNISTS BACKING COMMUNISTS TO DEFEAT LIBERALS

02.07.2009

Tiraspol. The only possibility to prevent the victory of Moldovan nationalists, who hate Transnistria and seek to make the region a NATO stronghold, is to support the Moldovan Communist Party at the July 29 elections, it was said at the plenum of the central committee of the Transnistrian Communist Party (TCP) held here on Wednesday.

TCP central committee member Mikhail Mikhalitsyn told his party comrades that “Moldova has been in a political crisis caused by pro-Romania forces for American money. The election outcome in Moldova will be crucial not only for that state but largely also for Transnistria’s destiny. It would be impermissible to let Moldovan nationalists come into state power again”.

Plenum participants voiced regret that the Tiraspol authorities are again refusing to open polling stations for Transnistrians having the Republic of Moldova citizenship. The local communists presume that the local residents’ ballots cast for the MCP would help reduce victory chances for Moldovan nationalist forces so hostile towards Transnistria.
