Overview
- PSRM announced it will sit as its own parliamentary faction built on sovereignty, social justice and traditional values, following a party council meeting led by Igor Dodon.
- PCRM will also constitute a standalone faction, with the new line‑up giving PSRM 17 deputies and PCRM 8 in the 101‑seat legislature.
- Although the Constitutional Court has validated the election results, PSRM insists the vote was neither free nor fair, alleging administrative pressure and external interference.
- The court‑confirmed outcome gives the pro‑Western PDS 55 seats, positioning it to form a government after the chamber organizes its leadership.
- Parliament convenes on 22 October to elect a speaker, after which President Maia Sandu will consult factions as PDS says it plans to nominate businessman Alexander Muntianu for prime minister.
