Independent presidential candidate Victoria Furtuna presented on Monday her electoral program. At a press conference at the INFOTAG agency, the politician said that among the main priorities is the industrialization of the republic.

“Moldova is being used as a HUB (transshipment point) for the logistics of international terrorists close to al-Qaeda, claims civil activist Veaceslav Valico.” He said at a press conference at the INFOTAG agency on Thursday that he took the responsibility to make such an assumption based on data from open sources.

The public movement “For Peace” will organize a demonstration on Saturday, October 5, at the “Eternity” memorial complex in Chisinau to “prevent Moldova from being involved in any armed conflict.”

The representative of the association Lege si Dreptate, Marcel Darie, said that in “the Chisinau municipal prosecutor's office there is a prosecutor-judicial criminal group that blackmails businessmen, extorting money from them under various pretexts”.

Valery Klimenko, chairman of the Congress of Russian Communities (CRC) of Moldova, has appealed to Russian President Vladimir Putin with a request “to protect Russian compatriots in Moldova.” Klimenko said at an INFOTAG briefing on Tuesday that “the heat of anti-Russianism and Russophobia cultivated by the current Moldovan central government has reached a level beyond which is the start of a new civil war.”

A representative of the public association Lege si Dreptate, Marcel Darie, claims that the “mafia” in the prosecutor's office in Chisinau is covered by people from the judiciary.

Public activist Marcel Darie claims that the Chisinau municipal prosecutor's office is run by a “mafia”, but this remains unattended by the competent bodies, first of all the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office.

Moldovan presidential candidate Victoria Furtuna spoke in defense of the Orthodox Church and clergymen. At a press conference at INFOTAG on Friday, Fortuna said that “the country's current government is attacking the Orthodox Church and its ministers” and that in 2024 Moldova's politicians have suddenly become experts in religion.”

Pensioner Elena Juc and her husband Valeriu, deprived of their two-story house and four hectares of land in Drochia, are demanding that the Moldovan authorities stop the “lawlessness” against their family, which began in 2009.

Marcel Darie, a public figure and former candidate for Chisinau mayor, has spoken about an unprecedented situation in the Chisinau prosecutor's office.

Lawyer Sergei Mishin believes that “voting by mail in the October 20 presidential election is a gift to the authorities in the form of bribing the CEC.” He said at a press conference at the INFOTAG agency on Wednesday that “the law on voting in envelopes is a legal nonsense that has nothing to do with the equal right of citizens to participate in the electoral process.”

Avelin Tabarcea, a potential presidential candidate, intends to challenge in court the decision of the Central Electoral Commission, which the previous day refused to register an initiative group in support of his candidacy. At a press conference at INFOTAG on Tuesday, Tabarcea named the CEC's decision as an ‘attack on democracy’ and a gross violation of human rights.’

“The citizens of the republic should become masters in little Moldova themselves and only then it will become blooming,” says presidential contender Stefan Savitchi. At a press conference at the INFOTAG agency on Friday, as a contender in the election race, he said that he intends to undergo the necessary legal procedures at the CEC together with the members of the initiative group.

Former Prosecutor General Alexandru Stoianoglo announced his official entry into the election campaign for the Moldovan presidency starting August 21. He told an INFOTAG news conference on Tuesday that he had held a series of meetings with politicians, including participants in the electoral race, over the past month.
