Candu: Plahotniuc Told Me Long Ago He Is Off Politics

A frequently debated topic these days is that some politicians from Moldova had met with Vladimir Plahotniuc, who was in Turkey, to provide him with information on the political situation in the country. Former Democrat Andrian Candu denies having met with the former DPM leader when he was in Istanbul, realitatea.md reports. Moreover, the Pro Moldova leader claims that he does not know Plahotniuc's current whereabouts. "I was making my trip via Istanbul, because it is a hub enabling flights to the European countries today," Candu said on the air of the TVR Moldova show. "Do you think a person necessarily needs a meeting to be informed? I rarely communicate with Mr. Plahotniuc. We are not talking about politics. He told me long ago that he is off politics," Candu said.
