Chisinau (Moldova.ORG) – Although words spoken by Sergiu Mocanu (Leader of the Political Party for Nation and Country) sound apparently extremely unusual for the Republic of Moldova, and even if the „spokesman of Plahotniuc denies the accusations and suggests Mocanu to… write epigrams”, according to a piece of news on the website Pro-Tv.md, the posits of the latter seem to be credible. I have never had access to sources of data, neither files, etc., but as a citizen of the Republic of Moldova (R.M.) with equal rights – I will use the right to free thinking. On the other hand, it is normal to admit, that this kind of discussions can be joined in by any citizen of the R.M., regardless of whether doing it orally or in writing.<\/p>\n

The story with Vlad Plahotniuc seems to be credible not so much in terms that in the R.M. would not be possible for a person to get rich inasmuch as the subject of this scandal does, rather indirectly – the fact how Marian Lupu behaves in the electoral campaign, the fact that his team has been quit by people who are really worthy of trust (for ex., Oazu Nantoi), and the values from which Marian Lupu more and more obviously detaches, by the fact that the Democratic Party of Moldova (DPM) takes more and more a characteristic of – duplicity – which is risky for the political future of the R.M.<\/p>\n

It wouldn’t be an absolute novelty in the R.M., that among businessmen circles and politicians could exist formally undeclared „coalitions”, stemmed on certain economic and clan-type interests, as there is no doubt anymore that „money doesn’t smell”. However, the big question emerging is – to what extent? What matters is what are we facing if, indeed, the state of affairs is just as, or close to, what Sergiu Mocanu describes? What is harder to admit, that… it seems credible. Another strong argument that makes me believe his statements is that he is not alone, that he has a team, who seem to out-speak coherent and logical messages. They look well qualified and, not less important, for my logic – Mocanu’s team has been joined in by Mr. Gheorghe Susarenco, Deputy Minister of Justice. Sincere and fair people can be noticed by their attitudes and by the essence and logic of their words. Mr. Gheorge Susarenco has always been inspiring trust to me and the circle of my interlocutors.<\/p>\n

The situation is really tensed, because some leaders claim that they would do the “supreme sacrifice”, by declaring: „We are in a permanent political war…”, like Iurie Roshka (on pro-tv.md), and he would never make a hint on – whether somebody asks him to do such a sacrifice. If he can offer himself with so much sacrifice, and has so many “capacities” to “address” the problem of Moldova, I wander what has he been doing by now. Would he really believe that without him the R.M. would get lost? This kind of messages, in my view, can be read only obliquely – he has neither pro-development ideas nor methods to promote… It’s a typical mere mercantile interest.<\/p>\n

I wouldn’t approach this subject in general, should I have had the feeling of this as being a “strictly internal issue” of the R.M., and wouldn’t have had the opportunity to read very recently the articles: „Stratfor’s geopolitical journey”, signed by Mr. George Friedman<\/a>, SEO and founder of the organization with the same name. Inter alia, with regard to the region the R.M. is placed, there is the phrase: „ What I do not expect this to be is a region of perpetual peace. It has never been that before. It will not be that in the future. I want to understand the pattern of conflict that will occur in the future”.<\/p>\n

We should admit that in the history of big conflicts the “mysterious” structures like bolsheviks, have never been patriotic ones, as they claimed to be vociferously, with mauzer-guns in their hands…, they were criminal structures which had no more interest than that the majority to fear of their horrors, so that their deeds remain undisclosed, unanalyzed and not subjected to proper lawsuits. Of these situations suffer majorities of the nations and countries in which this kind of “politicians” have “nested”, used and … left in “due time”.<\/p>\n

Through that all, I wouldn’t allow myself to be dogmatic in approaching that the “history repeats”. This is a cheap excuse, used by certain groups of interests. It is the people who continue to make mistakes similar in terms of manifestations and implications; what repeats is the indifference of the people, and the ease at which they get in despair. What repeats is the indifference due to (i) improper education and\/or (ii) lack of some “leaders” to make extensive and free access to education of due quality. Rather, what they mostly do is make education more difficult to access, so that people continue to „stay in despair” when it comes to education of due quality, so that on the background of ignorance emerge also various kinds of occurrences, including that as mentioned by Sergiu Mocanu, no matter what would be their real face.<\/p>\n

The aim of this making attitude is not to „be a judge”. On virtue of the fact that the R.M. is in the view of experts with world-wide vision in terms of geopolitics and symptomatic situations analysis, it is essential, that the population manifest sufficient seriousness to analyze the messages of the electoral competitors in such a way as political support, on behalf of the citizens, be given to most worthy political formations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
