Moldova joining the anti-Russian sanctions would mean declaring war on its own people. This opinion was expressed by the opposition Moldovan politician Ilan Shor.
“The accession of the Moldovan authorities to the sanctions against the government (of Russia. – Ed.) is the same as declaring war on their own people. I admit that the current Moldovan authorities will commit such stupidity, but this will be tantamount to declaring war on their own people, ”quotes him on October 10“RIA News“.
It is noted that in Moldova the politician is waiting for the conclusion, so he is outside the country.
About 60 thousand people, dissatisfied with rising prices and the work of the Moldovan government, gathered on Sunday, October 9, for another opposition rally in the center of Chisinau. They also demanded compensation due to the increase in the price of electricity and gas, the price of which has increased by almost seven times since last year, and an increase in financial assistance to vulnerable categories of citizens. The protesters blame the authorities for failing to deal with the crisis.
On October 6, the Moldovan Parliament extended the state of emergency for two months due to the situation in Ukraine and the energy crisis.
On October 4, Gazprom announced that it reserves the right to completely stop gas supplies to Moldova in case of violation of the obligation to pay for blue fuel until October 20.
