Sandu: Dodon Is Trying to Get Rid of Usatii, He Does not Like Competitors

Igor Dodon is trying to remove Renato Usatii from the presidential election race, and the materials submitted by Moscow against Balti mayor represent “obvious help” to the informal leader of the PSRM. This opinion was expressed by former Prime Minister Maia Sandu, deschide.md reports. According to the PAS chairman, President Dodon does not want to have a competitor in the left segment of the electorate. “It is clear to everyone that Dodon is trying to eliminate Renato Usatii. He does not like competition. Igor Dodon does not want to have any opponent in his traditional electoral segment. I think that even the news about the processes initiated in Moscow is related to the local election campaign. I won’t talk about Usatii’s guilt or innocence, but the fact that the decision to initiate cases has been made now clearly indicates that Moscow is helping Igor Dodon,” Maia Sandu said on Puterea a Patra on Channel 4.
