The Parliament of Moldova (Romanian: Parlamentul Republicii Moldova) is the supreme representative body of the Republic of Moldova (Romanian: Republica Moldova), the only state legislative authority, being a unicameral structure composed of 101 elected MPs on lists, for a period or legislature of four years. The Parliament of Moldova is elected by universal vote, equal directly, secret and freely expressed. The president of the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova is elected by the Parliament, with a minimum of 52 votes.
The Constitutional Court of the Republic of Moldova, on a proposal of the Central Electoral Commission, decides to validate or invalidate the mandate of the Member of Parliament. The mandate is invalid in the case of violation of electoral legislation. The Parliament is meeting at the convening of the Speaker of the Parliament within 30 days of the elections. The Parliament's mandate is prolonged until the legal meeting of the new composition. During this period the Constitution cannot be amended and organic laws cannot be adopted, amended or abrogated.[3]
Parliamentary elections in Moldova took place on 11 July 2021.[4] The snap parliamentary elections resulted in a landslide win for the Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS).[5]
