Posoi Criticized Dodon: The Country Is Sold out to Pieces

"The country sold out to pieces," that’s how the Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS) called its press conference on Friday outside the presidential administration building. They dedicated it to criticism of Igor Dodon when he was Minister of Economy (2006-2009),  infotag.md reported. The role of accuser took vice-chairman of the party and parliament, Mihai Posoi. According to him, Minister Dodon "established a monopoly on meat imports, issuing authorizations at his own request and earned money importing electricity from Ukraine by setting up an intermediary firm in Hungary." Posoi recalled both the National Hotel, which "that disappeared from state property due to Dodon," and the "Codru Hotel," that he put up for privatization while a company affiliated with Plahotniuc acquired it at knockdown price. The MP claimed that "because of Dodon, an area of 11 hectares near the North Station of the capital, where the construction of a shopping complex was supposed to hold, was transferred to Plahotniuc." He also told about "schemes with the port of Giurgiulesti and BEM loans". "Poverty in the country has been caused by such a long time theft. Dodon, when he was minister, did nothing for ordinary citizens, he only stole and helped Plahotniuc laying his hand on the most valuable objects," said the representative of the party, whose leader Maia Sandu is Dodon's main competitor in the upcoming November 1 presidential elections.
