Communists will not get any of the three leadership positions: Alliance member

Vlad Filat, head of the Liberal Democratic Party, the largest member of the Alliance for European Integration, said today that the Party of Communists will not get any of the three leadership positions in the state (President, Prime Minister, and Speaker).

Mr. Filat added that the President will be a political appointment. Alliance members echoed the Liberal Democrat's message, which comes right after Communist M.P. Vladimir Turcan said that the Party of Communists would vote for an apolitical President and suggested that his party should be given one of the three leadership positions in the state.
