Filat: PAS Launches Unprecedented Attack to Distort Local Election Results

PLDM leader Vlad Filat accused PAS of attempts to distort the autumn local elections results. According to Filat, the PAS will launch an attack, forcing mayors and candidates, who are likely to win, to join the party in local elections, tv8.md reports. “In a desperate attempt to cover up the lack of popular support and distort the local election results, the PAS is launching an unprecedented attack, and I tell you this has never happened before. This attack is aimed at candidates who have a real chance to become mayors forcing them by various methods to go to the local elections under the PAS logo. This is a cowardly attempt, like everything the PAS does,” Filat said at the press briefing. Filat also argues that the pressure exerted by the PAS on mayors will affect the democratic process. The PAS representatives responded to the journalists’ question that they had not commented on Vlad Filat’s statements.
