The Constitutional Court has decided to connect the referral submitted by the Gagauz People’s Assembly regarding certain provisions of the Electoral Code with the referral previously submitted by the Ministry of Justice. At the same time, the constitutional judges rejected the APG’s request to seek the opinion of the Venice Commission and the move to suspend the examination of the referral submitted by the Ministry of Justice, reports IPN.

The APG complaint was filed before the Court session and targets several provisions of the Electoral Code related to the organization and functioning of the electoral authority in autonomy. Among these are the use of the phrase “Central Electoral Council of Gagauzia”, as well as articles 17 and 36, which establish the role of this institution in organizing elections and referendums.

The Ministry of Justice has notified the Court regarding the constitutional control of some provisions from the Law on the special legal status of Gagauzia, the Law on police activity, and the Electoral Code. The institution challenges the norms that grant the People’s Assembly powers in approving the composition of the region’s electoral body, as well as in the appointment procedures of the leadership of some territorial structures of the Police, the Information and Security Service, and the Justice Directorate in Gagauzia.

The two notifications will be examined within the same procedure. The Constitutional Court session continues today and tomorrow, July 8th.

by Editor Editor 26.07.2026

Two of the three people, detained following the searches carried out at the state enterprise Moldatsa, were placed in preventive arrest for 30 days. The third person was placed under house arrest for the same period, reports IPN.

The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office specifies that the Chisinau Court, Ciocana headquarters, has fully admitted the initiatives regarding the application of preventive measures against two individuals. For the third, the court ordered house arrest, partially admitting the prosecutors’ request. The institution did not specify whether it will challenge the decision.

The three Moldatsa employees were detained at the end of last week, as part of a case of abuse of office. According to the National Anticorruption Center, they are suspected of causing the company significant damage through irregularities in asset management, resource management, and public procurement.

According to information released to the public, the individuals detained are the chief accountant of the company, the deputy head of the Administrative Directorate, and the deputy head of the Aeronautical Security Department.

by Editor Editor 25.07.2026

In June, more than 170,000 people received subsidized medications and medical devices prescribed through the “eRețeta” system. For these, the National Health Insurance Company transferred approximately 118 million lei to contracted pharmacies, according to IPN.

Of the total amount, over 110 million lei were spent on reimbursed medications, and the average cost of reimbursed treatments and medical devices per person was 689 lei. The largest portion of expenditures went toward the treatment of circulatory system diseases—approximately 54 million lei for about 126,000 patients.

Approximately 40 million lei were allocated for medical products intended for the treatment of endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic disorders, benefiting more than 76,000 people. At the same time, more than 17,000 people received subsidized medical devices worth more than seven million lei.

CNAM states that reimbursable medications and medical devices can be picked up from pharmacies by presenting an ID card, without the need to present a paper prescription. An electronic prescription can be issued by any doctor, including those in emergency rooms or specialists who provide home care.
