The struggle between political parties in the R.M. is more than an ideological one – essentially it is a struggle between archaism and modernism, healthy aspirations and degradation, between the morality and amorality, between the ethical and unethical, between corruption and tendency towards transparency and civilization, between honor and meanness, and not least between cleverness and its antipode. It is the struggle that sooner or later we will have to get through, and, probably the fact that we overcome it now – it is not too late.<\/p>\n

We have had in the recent past another phase of political crisis in the frame of the AEI, and the fact that the joint declaration of those 4 leaders that the alliance is alive, is a natural occurrence of this hard process. It is, nevertheless, essential to think upon some aspects, such as, for instance, if we have managed to learn something from the latter crisis. <\/p>\n

It is quite normal that there are different interpretations with regard to the amounts that can be allocated for the good of the people, unavoidably we have to deal with four vies instead of only one; anyway it is much better that there have been made decisions to provide compensations and subsidies to the people of the country, and the money has not been misused for some shameful purpose.<\/p>\n

It is obvious that these four leaders cannot think absolutely similarly, because they are leaders of four categories of different people with different interests, aspirations and political visions; what matters is that their views do not differ on essential issues.<\/p>\n

But, should we think on the fact – how plausible have there been the critics addressed to Mr. Prime-minister Vlad Filat?, – we can easily come to conclude that this is totally regretful. Should we have heard „excuses” from some high-school schoolchildren for having been eventually manipulated, by some offender, I could have said… it could be. But when we hear that some persons in ranks of ministers lament to their political leaders for having allegedly manipulated by the Prime-minister – I can hardly believe this is something normal, and I think it might be good that the respective leaders, next time, should think double before assigning certain persons for ministers offices, even if the cabinet will have to be composed based on algorithm.<\/p>\n

With all my respect to the AEI, it is essential to understand and alert the political party leaders – we do not need such ministers who profane the image of the cause we strive for. This conclusion should not be perceived as an eventual attempt to idealize Mr. Filat, but rather a situation which makes us believe that a cabinet of ministers who can be eventually manipulated, probably can admit problems of another extreme, versus those we can hardly get through. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
