Filip: The Government Acted Strictly in Accordance with the Constitution

The Chairman of the Democratic Party, Pavel Filip, said that the government did not violate any provisions of the Constitution of the Republic of Moldova, taking responsibility for a number of bills. On the air of the Punctul pe Azi program on TVR Moldova, the democrat noted that the current situation is paradoxical, deschide.md reports. “The Constitution says that the prime minister can come to parliament to take responsibility. This is a mechanical, technical action, the Prime Minister comes and reads the commitment, and the parliament has 72 hours to vote,” said Pavel Filip. According to the PDM leader, the opposition dragged on taking responsibility as much as possible. “I heard that the government should have succumbed. It is unacceptable. You cannot cancel a political move. The government acted in strict accordance with the Constitution of the Republic of Moldova. When opposition colleagues did not come to the conference room, it was completely irresponsible,” Pavel Filip said. Moreover, the democrat said in Prime Minister Chicu’s place, he would do the same. “These laws concern the state budget. They should take effect as soon as possible. The situation is extraordinary, because EU assistance is also involved,” the PDM leader said.
