BCS MPs left the Parliament session "in protest"
The last session of the Parliament this year continues in the absence of opposition. It happened after the faction of the "Sor" Party announced that it will not go to the plenary session, as a sign of protest, and the deputies of the Bloc of Communists and Socialists (BCS) left the meeting hall, after a break of more than an hour.
Socialists and communists argued their decision to boycott the last meeting of the Legislature this year by saying that opposition projects would be missing from the agenda. BCS deputy Grigore Novac expressed his dissatisfaction, in plenary, after, according to him, the only opposition project included on the agenda, regarding the entrepreneur's patent, was approved negatively by the relevant parliamentary committee.
"There was practically no opposition project on the agenda. The only project, 406, regarding the entrepreneur's patent, also has a report for rejection. We don't see the point of participating in today's meeting and as a sign of protest we will boycott it", said socialist Grigore Novac.
The BCS announcement did not go unnoticed. Deputies of the Action and Solidarity Party (PAS), which holds the parliamentary majority, criticised the opposition's decision to boycott the plenary session.
"The traditional hypocrisy of the PSRM. Everyone knows that at 14:00 the socialists have a corporate party, they celebrate. Happy birthday!" said PAS deputy Adrian Cheptonar.
"I was ready to vote for the project, but I'm sorry if my colleagues choose corporate instead of people. What can we do, we can't vote in your absence", declared PAS deputy Ion Groza.
"Socialists are not going to go to any celebration today. You told another lie in your style," Grigore Novac said in reply.
Moldova 1 recalls that the people's elected officials met today, starting at 10:00, in the last plenary session of this year. The deputies of the "Sor" Party announced, in the morning, that they will also boycott today's plenary session, as a sign of protest against the policy promoted by the PAS government.
