At a press conference, several persons, who introduced themselves as members of Botanica territorial organization of the Democratic Party of Moldova (PDM), stated that about 300 party members leave the party. (Source: Infotag)

Leaving the Democratic Party by members of Botanica organization is denied by PDM official statement, according to which Mr. Serghei Poddubnîi, who claims to represent a group of party members, does not represent the Democratic Party, since he was expelled from the party long before.
