The Prime Minister Pavel Filip regrets the fact that the motion of no confidence debate did not take place, because of this he was deprived of the possibility to present his speech and to answer the questions. The statement was made today after the meeting of the Legislative, closed due to lack of quorum.

"I would like to answer to this motion, but unfortunately, the majority did not meet in the Parliament. Let us not forget that we live in the era of informational technologies and electronic communication that is why you will be able to see my speech online, on which, I must admit, I worked and prepared thoroughly. You'll find there many numbers and arguments that come to disprove this motion of no confidence. I think it is a correct decision of the parliamentary majority not to provide a platform for political show to those who submitted the vote of no confidence. It is a frivolous, cynical and demagogic motion", he declared.  

We remind that the Permanent Bureau decided to organize a special meeting today to discuss the no-confidence motion against the Filip Government, initiated by PSRM, PCRM and PLDM. However, the meeting did not take place due to lack of quorum after the MPs of the parliamentary majority have announced that they will not participate at it, classifying it as an electoral show.

Although, he expressed his regret for not reading his speech in the plenary, it seems that the Prime Minister did not intend to do so. At least that results from the fact that Pavel Filip had to be present in the Parliament at 12:00 AM, and just over half an hour had already planned a meeting with his Belorussian counterpart, Andrei Kobeacov.

Shortly, after the fail of the no-confidence motion, on the official page of the Government was published the speech that the Prime Minister Filip referred to.
