The “Pact for Europe” signed by the 13 parties is not a non-aggression pact but a document committing the signatories to support the European integration referendum, which will be on the same date as the presidential elections on 20 October. The vice-president of the Platform for Dignity and Truth, Liviu Vovc, claims that the document signatories represent about 60% of local authorities in Moldova, according to jurnal.md.
“The “Together” bloc supports the European course. The “Together” bloc stands in firm support of the European course. Our initial endeavor will involve participating in the upcoming presidential elections and referendum. The “Together” bloc, even if it was skeptical about the date chosen by PAS regarding the referendum, said that we would support this initiative anyway. We would work to make this referendum pass. Political forces that support Russian Federation interests and parties affiliated with Ilan Shor, PSRM, were not invited to sign this pact. The others who signed, time will show if they were sincere or cheats”, said Liviu Vovc.
