High turnout expected in pivotal Moldovan vote
(ANSA) - MOSCOW - With 86% of votes counted, three pro-Western parties are in the lead with 44% in the general elections held yesterday in Moldova, compared with 40% which was got by the two pro-Russian opposition parties.
The Socialists are booming, being at the first place with 22%. It will be difficult to form a government majority. A grand coalition between the pro-EU parties and the communist parties is more likely to be the solution, gathering all the political forces which are not hostile to integration into the EU, though in favour of a revision of the EU Association Agreement.
