PSRM calls for the exclusion of MPs Vasile Bolea and Alexandr Suhodolskii from the party's ranks

The Executive Committee of the Party of Socialists asks for the exclusion of MPs Vasile Bolea and Alexandr Suhodolskii from the party's ranks and from the parliamentary faction. PSRM states in a press release that the two have allegedly behaved defiantly in recent months, contrary to the party's position and interests.

At the same time, the PSRM Executive Committee asks Vasile Bolea and Alexandr Suhodoliskii to give up their mandates as MPs.

The two did not comment on the decision. Radio Moldova tried to contact Vasile Bolea, but he did not answer the phone.

Vasile Bolea had previously clashed with the party leadership because he supported Victor Petrov in the elections for governor of the Gagauz region and not Grigore Uzun, officially supported by PSRM.

Alexandr Suhodolski is said to have been one of those who invited the leader of Tatarstan, Rustam Minihanov, to the Republic of Moldova, who was banned from entering the country, leading to a diplomatic row between Chisinau and Moscow.
