Candu: We Have a Close Relationship with Plahotniuc, but Friendship – That’s Different

The leader of the Pro Moldova group, former Democrat Andrian Candu, claims that the former PDM chairman, as well as his best man, Vlad Plahotniuc, is not his friend. “Mr. Plahotniuc has his friends. I can not call him a friend, but it will be an honor for me to be considered as such. There are family relationships, he baptized my children, but friendship is something else,” said Andrian Candu, quoted by agora.md. Moreover, the deputy said that he had not communicated with Vlad Plahotniuc “for some time”. “There was no occasion,” the politician explained. It should be noted that, despite the fact that Pro Moldova is accused of being a political project created by Vlad Plahotniuc, its representatives deny this. Moreover, Andrian Candu noted that he did not discuss political issues with Plahotniuc.
