The doctor \u0218tefan Ga\u021bcan was a deputy in the Socialist Party. Several hours after he announced that he wants to leave the Socialist Party and stated that he wanted to join the newly formed Pro Moldova Party, led by Andrian Candu, the godson of Moldova\u2019s oligarch Vladimir Plahotniuc, Ga\u021bcan disappeared from Moldova, tendering his resignation as deputy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his first 100 days in politics, Ga\u021bcan climbed on the political career ladder. However, it was very clear that the swift rise would soon end up in a political collapse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ga\u021bcan collapsed from politics into a stinking mud pit. A few hours after giving up on politics, he hid in a vineyard and announced that he \u201cneeds rehabilitation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a medical institution, as in a medical career, is vital to be clean. However, now, even if he retires from politics to his private clinic, his past in politics will haunt him everywhere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ga\u021bcan started his political career accepting money from controversial politicians while serving as director of a state medical institution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2012, Ga\u021bcan had countless meetings with Plahotniuc, who allegedly donated some money to the Mother and Child Institute, where Ga\u021bcan was a director. Obviously, there was no transparency in the financial documents. However, the justice system did not work, and Ga\u021bcan made new political relations that led him to political ascension and finally, but later to downfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His last political upswing began in early 2020 when he ran in an election campaign in H\u00e2nce\u0219ti district, the center of Moldova. Maybe Plahotniuc, his former colleague of charitable and political campaigns, convinced Ga\u021bcan to take part in the elections or maybe Ga\u021bcan was blackmailed and coerced to take part in the elections. He also could have run for local elections out of pure love for the Socialist Party or maybe he really took an interest in politics. We hope to find out his real motive for running for local elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was a controversial mandate in the Parliament, won by the vote of the people taken out to elections in a time of the pandemic. Ga\u021bcan became a deputy with the vote of 5,500 people, while the campaign cost him tens of thousands of euros. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to several documents, members of the Socialist Party donated money for Ga\u021bcan\u2019s electoral campaign. Meanwhile, the people in H\u00e2nce\u0219ti district, mention that they received different goods, including gas bottles. However, these expenditures were not recorded in the Socialist Party\u2019s financial statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The doctor and the politician Ga\u021bcan promised voters and all citizens to work on health projects, together with the team of the Socialist Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During his three-months mandate, he did not manage to do too much, but he actively promoted the cause of the Socialist Party. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On June 5, Ga\u021bcan together with President Igor Dodon announced the Year of the Medical Worker. On June 16, Ga\u021bcan promoted on his Facebook page Dodon’s action plan for the Medical Worker Year. On June 23, Ga\u021bcan shared a post written by a Socialist Party deputy, praising the Socialist Party government. During all this time, deputy Ga\u021bcan did not issue any critical remark towards the Government. None. Just praise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On June 28, deputy Ga\u021bcan submitted a request to the leadership of the Parliament, announcing his retirement from the Socialist Party faction and joining Pro Moldova Party, led by Plahotniuc\u2019s godson Andrian Candu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI ascertain no progress and no effective measures to save the medical system, and I regret that the voices of many experts are not heard. (…) Instead, I am deeply impressed by the courage, selflessness, and strength with which the new political party Pro Moldova fights for the interests of citizens and the country. Their latest actions and initiatives, especially in the social field, fully represent me,\u201d<\/em> Ga\u021bcan wrote in a post on June 30. <\/p>\n\n\n\n July 1, 2020, was a memorable day. From morning to evening, the Socialist and the Pro Moldova Parties parliamentarian factions made controversial declarations. The Socialists stated that Ga\u021bcan admires the Socialist Party, while the Pro Moldova Party stated that Ga\u021bcan admires their party. Later on, statements that Ga\u021bcan was kidnapped and then that he was released appeared on the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n At the end of the day, the deputy himself appeared in a video in which he says that \u201che needs rehabilitation\u201d. I am not sure if the electorate from H\u00e2nce\u0219ti will trust Ga\u021bcan ever again. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The doctor \u0218tefan Ga\u021bcan was a deputy in the Socialist Party.
