Yedinaya Gaguzia Movement warns on protests
The social movement "Yedinaya Gagauzia" warns it is likely to unfold
protests in case of invalidating the elections in the constituencies
where its supporters were elected as local parliamentarians, Info-Prim
Neo reports.
A communique issued by Yedinaya Gagauzia's executive committee reads
that the representatives of the central authorities largely used
administrative resources in the elections in the autonomous area.
Especially in the runoff, on March 30, employees of the
law-enforcement organs interfered into the ballot and exerted
pressures on voters.
The movement?s representatives maintain they hold information on the
further use of administrative resources, the pressure being now
exerted on the newly elected parliamentarians who support the
movement. In case the latter ones don?t give in, pressure is exerted
on courts to invalidate the elections in their constituencies.
The social movement "Yedinaya Gagauzia" states that, in case
pressures are exerted on courts not to recognize the mandate of the
legally elected MPs, "supporters of our movement reserve the right to
organize protest meetings and to take adequate measures to defend
democracy, the citizens' rights and freedoms."
Yedinaya Gagauzia requests the representatives of the OSCE and of
diplomatic missions accredited to Moldova to support the validation of
the results of the runoff for the local People?s Assembly.
