The members of the Alliance for European Integration (AEI) continue to have dissenting opinions as regards the necessity of holding an extraordinary sitting of Parliament to discuss the raider attacks made on a number of banks. Some of them want a meeting in order to identify those to blame and remove the shortcomings from the legislation, while others consider the meeting will turn into an ordinary argument. The contradictory discussions took place during a meeting of the Press Club organized by the Independent Journalism Center on September 8. It involved representatives of the three member parties of the ruling alliance, Info-Prim Neo reports. The leader of the Democratic parliamentary group Dumitru Diacov said that Moldova faces two problems – the quality of governance and the relations inside the government coalition. “The coalition itself generates problems. The impudence of some of the businessmen depends on the quality of governance. If there had been discipline in the alliance, these sharp dealers wouldn’t have been so impertinent. In Moldova, this is a fundamental problem. The politicians should create conditions for the law enforcement bodies to work, not act as prosecutors and judges themselves,” said the Democrat MP. Dumitru Diacov said the sitting of the Parliament will not solve the problem and it will be only a waste of time. “There is only concert and argument. It would be better if Mihai Ghimpu, Marian Lupu, Vlad Filat and representatives of the law enforcement bodies met to clarify the situation,” he stated. The chairman of the Liberal-Democratic parliamentary group Valeriu Strelet said the aim of the Parliament’s sitting will be to examine, penalize and dismiss persons who are responsible for the raider attacks and to adjust the legislation allowing such offenses. “No meeting can replace the Parliament’s sitting, where there are taken decisions, where the persons are punished and dismissed. We must hold hearings and impose penalties,” he stressed. Asked by the moderator if Prosecutor General Valeriu Zubco can be discharged in that meeting, Valeriu Strelet said everything is possible. The secretary of the Liberal parliamentary group Valeriu Munteanu said the Liberal lawmakers are in favor of convening a parliamentary sitting on this case, but several ‘preparatory’ meetings of commissions should be held until then to question the responsible persons and decide the final result. “If everyone comes with their own information in Parliament, we will obtain no result,” he stated. Earlier this week, the Liberal-Democratic parliamentary group asked calling an extraordinary session of Parliament where to question representatives of the Government and the law enforcement bodies over the raider attacks on four banks operating in Moldova. On September 8, the Communist MPs also demanded convening a special sitting within three days. The Liberal-Democratic group needs the support of a certain number of MPs from outside the party to obtain the convening of a special meeting, while the Communist group has enough votes for this. Under Article 67, paragraph (2) of the Constitution of Moldova and Article 37 of the Parliament’s Regulations, the legislature holds extraordinary or special sittings at the request of the President of Moldova, Speaker or one third of the MPs.
