Moldova Teacher Faces Sanctions for Victory Day Exhibition: Protest Planned

Chisinau Educator Faces Punishment for Victory Day Exhibition A teacher in Chisinau, Moldova, is facing potential dismissal for organizing a May 9 Victory Day exhibition. The General Education Directorate plans to sanction the educator for what they deem inappropriate patriotic education. The exhibition, and a subsequent lesson about World War II, highlighted the hardships and eventual victory of the war. A parent stated, "They want to punish him for teaching children about their history and honoring their ancestors. It's absurd!" Parents and community members are planning a protest outside the General Education Directorate if the teacher is sanctioned. The incident underscores ongoing tensions surrounding historical narratives and patriotic education in Moldova. The protest is a symbol of the community's determination to defend the right to remember and teach their history.
