Anatol Salaru criticized Andrei Nastase in a Facebook post and charged him of 'hypocrisy and self-righteousness' for the declaration 'Republic of Moldova is doomed to failure if Chisinau will be ruled by Socialists'.

'Dodon's taking over of the Constitutional Court, Prosecutor General's Office and Anti-corruption Fighting Center (CNA), security sector did not doomed to failure the Republic of Moldova? The Alliance made by Kozak, Dodon's federalization projects do not doom to failure the Republic of Moldova? The Republic of Moldova was doomed to failure when they allied with Igor Dodon and PSRM. To say that Moldova is doomed to failure if Socialists will take over the power in Chisinau is an aggression towards the common sense and intelligence of the Chisinau citizens', Salaru said.

He also says that 'the electoral anti-Socialist rhetoric of Andrei Nastase, while he is in an alliance with them and is voting for Russia within APCE is unspeakable', wrote adevarul.ro.
