"We Urge Opposing Moldova’s Liquidation." Civic Congress Appeals AUR's Registration to Run in Elections

The Civic Congress Party will appeal in court the registration of the Romanian Conservative Party Alliance for the Unification of Romanians (Alianța pentru Unirea Românilor - AUR) with the CEC. As Mark Tcaciuc, a member of the executive committee of the Civic Congress party, noted at a press briefing on June 7, the AUR includes, in addition to party members, representatives of other political formations. This suggests that the elections will run for one party, and the "hidden bloc". “The fact is that the leaders of other political formations followed the lists of this party - the leader of the Union for the Salvation of Bessarabia, Valeriu Munteanu, and the head of the Liberal Party, Dorin Chirtoaca. And also at least 20 more people who are in other formations. Consequently, in the guise of the AUR, the CEC is not dealing with a party list, but with a bloc that needs to overcome not a five percent, but a seven percent barrier,” Tcaciuc said. Tcaciuc called the registration of the “hidden bloc” AUR illegal and said that “Civic Congress” is going to court to appeal this decision of the CEC. “The Civil Congress is going to court to challenge the illegal registration of the hidden AUR bloc as a campaigner. We appeal to all participants in early elections, including the PAS party, to immediately condemn the illegal registration of an anti-European, xenophobic, unionist political group,” Tcaciuc said, noting that “AUR openly violates Moldovan legislation, using the symbols of another country, statements by foreign political leaders and public calls for the elimination of Moldovan independence”. He also called on the Party of Communists, rank-and-file members of the Party of Socialists (PSRM) and everyone "who is not indifferent to the future of a free, independent Moldova, to join forces and oppose the liquidation of our country." Let us remind you that on June 4, the CEC registered the Alliance for the Unification of Romanians party to participate in the early parliamentary elections. The list of candidates is headed by Victoria Grosu-Vremes. The second is Vlad Biletchi, the third is Valeriu Munteanu. They are followed by Dorin Chirtoaca, Tatiana Potang, Igor Hancu, Veronica Herta. At the end of the list of the first ten names are Maria Anvinte and Eduard Dragalin.
