In Moldova, a political split remains between the pro-Western Action and Solidarity Party of President Maia Sandu and the pro-Russian opposition represented by the Party of Socialists, the Party of Communists and other forces. The initiation of impeachment proceedings against a president is a rare event in the country's constitutional practice.
There is no chance of impeaching Moldovan President Maia Sandu anytime soon due to the constitutional majority of her Action and Solidarity party. Former president of the country Igor Dodon told Lenta.ru about this.
The day before, the head of the Party for Development and Unification of Moldova (PROM), Ion Chicu, announced the beginning of the procedure for removing Sandu from the post of head of state. Together with him, the initiative was taken by the Party of Socialists of the Republic of Moldova (PSRM), led by Dodon, as well as the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova (PCRM), “Alternative”, “Our Party” and “Democracy at Home”.
“This initiative has no chance. According to the constitution, to suspend the powers of the president and begin the impeachment procedure in parliament, 67 votes of deputies are needed, but the opposition has only 46,” Dodon emphasized.
The politician noted that such an impeachment procedure was registered for the first time in 35 years of the history of modern Moldova. According to Dodon, the very fact of uniting the entire opposition is remarkable. “46 out of 101 united, despite different political views,” summed up the ex-president.
