The elections to the People’s Assembly of Gagauzia will take place on September 19. A decision to this effect was adopted by the deputies of the Assembly, IPN reports.

The deputies examined two possible dates for elections – August 15 and September 19. Ultimately, the second proposal gained a majority of votes.

A new date of elections to the People’s Assembly of Gagauzia was set after the decision to hold the elections on May 16 was annulled following the declaring of a nationwide state of emergency.

On January 20, 2021, it was four years of the calling of the first meeting of the People’s Assembly of Gagauzia, after the elections of November 2016.
