CHRISTIAN DEMOCRATS ARE RESOLUTELY PREPARING FOR POSSIBLE ELECTIONS
Should an early parliamentary election be held in Moldova before the end of 2010, the Christian Democratic Popular Party shall take part in it with a serious electoral program in hands, Genadie Vaculovschi of the CDPP leadership stated at a news conference in Infotag today.
He presented a report called “The Purpose of the Constitutional Reform in Moldova”, prepared in concert with Dr. Norbert Neuhaus, a Robert Schumann Foundation consultant, in the framework of a project run by the Institute for Sustainable Regional and Administrative Development (IDRAD).
Vaculovschi said the Christian Democrats’ electoral proposal package will pertain primarily to methods of overcoming the constitutional crisis and to Moldova’s sustainable development, with an emphasis to be placed on industrial growth incentives.
He refrained from offering any forecast about the party’s future electoral success, and only said in general terms that like any political organization, the CDPP seeks to take part in the parliamentary process and in country governance.
At the April 5 parliamentary elections, the Christian Democrats polled 3.03%, and on July 29 – 1.91%.
Genadie Vaculovschi presumes that “nobody in Moldova needs elections in 2010, including for understandable financial reasons. But the current situation has been created in Moldova not by unidentified flying saucermen, but by quite identifiable lawmakers sitting in our Parliament, so they must clear up this mess”.
He regards the ongoing crisis in Moldova as neither constitutional nor political, but merely a procedural one. He stands against constitutional reform, and believes it is necessary only to change the president electing procedure. He is an opponent to electing president by the entire nation, for he believes such president will never be able to unite the country’s political class.
Asked to comment the situation around the ongoing attempts to dismiss Supreme Court Chairman Ion Muruianu, Vaculovschi said that by having named the mass media “a pack of rabid dogs” the country’s judge #1 committed a huge mistake, but the Parliament, from its part, has violated the principle of the division of powers by summoning Muruianu to the forum, and that idea of the Parliament’s was “anti-constitutional and unlawful”.
