The Common Action Party – Civil Congress (Romanian: Partidul Acțiunii Comune – Congresul Civic) is a left-wing political party in the Republic of Moldova. It was split from the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova. The values of the party are defined as social justice, solidarity, humanism, scientific outlook and critical analysis. Notably, it opposes the unification with Romania, NATO membership and supports closer ties with Russia.
History
The party was formed following the 2019 Moldovan constitutional crisis, inspiring its creation. On 31 July 2019, the political program of the party was presented for public discussion. The creation of the party provoked discussion on social networks and in both Moldovan and foreign media.
On 22 September 2019, in the House of Culture of Drochia, a regional forum of initiative groups of the Civil Congress of the Northern Regions of Moldova was held. On 17 November 2019, the founding conference of the Chișinău organization of the Civil Congress was held.
On 8 December 2019, the Constituent Congress of the new political formation was held. The Manifesto and the Charter were adopted, as well as its Action Plan "Moldova 2020–2025".
On 13 January 2020, the Common Action Party – Civil Congress was registered with the Public Services Agency of the Republic of Moldova.
Ideology
The party has the stated goal of prioritizing human development over economic development. Its declared political values of the party are social justice, solidarity, humanism, scientific outlook and critical analysis. It opposes the unification of Moldova and Romania, NATO membership for Moldova, is anti-Western and supports closer ties with Russia. Unlike traditional parties, the party has no chairman and is instead based on the principle of collective leadership.
Some political scientists have described the Civil Congress as part of a new generation of European left parties, supplanting communists and social democrats. The party has been compared to Podemos (Spain), SYRIZA (Greece), La France Insoumise, Razem (Poland), the left wing of the Labour Party (UK) and supporters of Bernie Sanders in the Democratic Party (United States). Romanian newspaper Adevărul criticized the party as being anti-Romanian and formed of radical ex-members of the Party of Communists.
