The Moldovan referendum of 2010 will be a nationwide referendum in Moldova on whether or not the country should amend the Constitution of Moldova. The referendum could take place by June 16.[1]
As the constitution can not be changed against the will of the opposition PCRM who hold enough seats to block any changes to constitution by parliament vote, the ruling coalition planning to hold referendum on the question, with the only change to the constitution a directly elected president.[2]
Overview
According to acting President Mihai Ghimpu, the new Constitution will be initially adopted by the Parliament by 50+1 votes. A national referendum will be held afterward where the people will express their opinions on the new Constitution.[1]
The name of the official language will be also modified. According to Ghimpu, Romanian language must be the official language of Moldova. The possible constitutional reform will not cover the country's neutrality policy and the functioning of the state of law, Ghimpu added.[1]
The Venice Commission of the Council of Europe will decide whether or not the Republic of Moldova really needs to adopt a new Constitution or to amend the 1994 Main Law, in particular to revise the existing procedure of electing president of the republic.[3][4]
On 9 March 2010, the four leaders of the Alliance for European Integration decided to organize the referendum until June 16, 2010 in order to adopt the 2010 constitution.[5][6]
