Moldova Protest: Citizens Take to the Streets

Chisinau Protest: Citizens Demand Justice and Freedom A large protest took place in Chisinau, Moldova on May 20, 2025, outside the courthouse. The demonstration centered around concerns about the fairness of recent elections and what protesters see as an oppressive government. I. Stamov, a prominent figure in the protest, addressed the crowd, expressing frustration with the political situation. "After what happened in the Romanian elections, we all understand very well what happened in the presidential elections in our country," Stamov stated. The protest included signs and chants calling for freedom and an end to what they term a "dictatorship." The event highlights growing political tensions within Moldova. The peaceful nature of the demonstration, however, suggests a commitment to democratic processes.
