Experts: Gavrilita's Nomination Is a Very Big Mistake, People Can Vote for Her

Natalia Gavrilita's nomination for the post of prime minister is "a very big mistake" and "there is a great risk that the government will be voted on." This opinion is shared by public policy experts Valeriu Pasa and Stefan Gligor, cotianul.md reported. Valeriu Pasa called nominating Natalia Gavrilita "a very big political mistake of the president." “She will have to give so many difficult explanations that she could have avoided - starting with why does not PDS vote for its own government. In addition, Mrs. Gavrilita is a good economist, but she has not yet become a good communicator, and sympathy for civil servants is completely absent, and in such conditions, she will be sabotaged by ministries, not only by parliament. Perhaps she learned this from the mistakes she made during the minister’s mandate, but I don’t think so. The socialists will vote for this government even with their feet, because all the political responsibility for it lies with the president and the PDS,” Pasa commented. According to Stefan Gligor, Maia Sandu went exactly according to the scenario that the socialists wanted. “There are very high risks that we will have a government and that early elections will be postponed indefinitely. This is the scenario that the socialists wanted. Even if the PDS initially stated that it would not vote, other factions could vote for this government and then shift the responsibility for mismanaging the pandemic crisis from the Chicu government to Maia Sandu. I would go to confrontation; I would declare this parliament captured and controlled by organized criminal groups and agents of foreign influence. And the seized power cannot be part of the administration of state affairs. I would refuse to nominate a candidate within 3 months, taking all the risks,” Stefan Gligor said.
