The People's Party of the Republic of Moldova was founded with the support of three youth groups: the Young Democrats, Youth for Moldova, and Force of Moldova. The party aims to represent all citizens of the Republic of Moldova and to build a robust and modern state of welfare and justice. According to the PPRM, their ideology aligns with those who believe that responsibility, common sense, modesty, and efficiency must replace political warfare, incompetence, and populism.

Congress approved essential changes to the party's statute and program, a new leadership was elected, and goals were set for the next term. Under the new statute, the party leadership consisted of four co-chairs, one of them the coordinating co-chair. Alexandru Oleinic, former Minister of Information Technology, was elected coordinating co-chair. The other three elected co-chairs were Valeriu Cosarciuc, former Minister of Agriculture, and Angela Cebotari and Vasile Guțu, both leaders in the territory.[1]

The new political program, projected PPRM as a modern, pro-European party to establish the Republic of Moldova and upholding the rule of law, its sovereignty, and democracy. It highlighted the PPRM's commitment towards the consolidation of the Moldovan society as a united civic nation and the integration of ethnic groups in common cultural communion. Another key objective was political stability, which would be achieved by improving the political system.
