44 M.P.s who were in the first Moldovan Parliament join the Liberal Democratic Party

A number of 44 M.P.s who were in the first Moldovan legislature after the country's independence joined the Liberal Democratic Party during the party congress today.

This event carries on a special significance because a lot of these M.P.s were part of the early movement for national liberation at the end of the 1980s in the Soviet Union and were some of the earliest promoters of Moldova's pro-Western orientation.

The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is the largest member of the current ruling Alliance for European Integration. Prime Minister Vlad Filat is LDP head.
