Ratification of the Rome Statute of the International Penal Court: an imperative issue on Moldova's European Integration Agenda
To investigate the most heinous crimes of the twentieth century - genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, the international community has set up ad hoc tribunals such as the International Military Tribunals at Nuremberg and Tokyo, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and the International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia. However, genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes remain a grim reality of the world today.
CEC officially announces preliminary results
Central Electoral Commission Chairman Eugen Stirbu stated at a news conference on Thursday morning that the CEC had processed 98.3% ballots. So far, no ballots have come from 33 polling stations opened at Moldovan diplomatic missions abroad. And three stations inside the republic have not yet sent in their complete data.
According to these preliminary results, the Communist Party has received 45.1% (704,610 ballots, so far known), the Liberal Democratic Party - 16.4% (256,310), the Liberal Party - 14.4% (224,470), the Democratic Party - 12.6% (197,126), the Moldova Noastra Alliance - 7.4% (115,273), the Christian Democratic Popular Party - 1.9% (29,805), the Social Democratic Party - 1.9% (29,310), and the "Alianţa Verde" [Green Alliance] Ecological Party - 0.4% (6,463 ballots).
With such statistics, which can eventually change by no more than tenths of a percent, the Communist Party is receiving 48 mandates in parliament, the Liberal Democratic Party - 17 mandates, the Liberal Party - 15, the Democratic Party - 13, and the Moldova Noastra Alliance - 8 mandates. The rest runners have failed to overcome the 5% barrier and have remained outside the forum.
Eugen Stirbu said that, according to the preliminary data, the voter turnout was 58.8% - 1,573,604 voters out of 2,574,673 included into voter lists.
He said the Central Election Commission will draw up and made public the election's final results "in the nearest days". For this work, the law assigns 48 hours to process all ballot-papers inside the country and 72 hours - for data coming from overseas stations.
