The Republican Council of the Party of Socialists (PSRM) on September 9 decided to organize an extraordinary congress of the party on December 18 to discuss a number of socioeconomic and political problems faced in the Republic of Moldova, IPN reports.

In a press release, PSRM says the members of the party’s Republican Council expressed their profound concern about the decisions taken by the senior administration of the country: the President, the Parliament, the Government. The Republican Council noted that the biggest threats to the country and society are: the decline in the level of water in the Nistru River, rapid growth in fuel prices and basic necessities, deplorable situation of farmers and producers, sudden rise in the number of COVID-19 cases, legal chaos caused by the new government, stopping of the investigation into the bank fraud and illegal concession of the Chisinau Airport.

The participants in the meeting expressed their concern about “corruption and nepotism in the appointments to pubic posts, unjustified extension of the bureaucratic machinery, abandonment of the balanced foreign policy, the course to a harsh confrontation with the Russian Federation, the tension in the Transnistrian settlement process and the Moldovan authorities’ intention to admit refugees from Afghanistan”.
