It has been 95 years since the birth of the late writer Vladimir Besleaga. To mark the occasion, the National Museum of Romanian Literature has opened an exhibition dedicated to the author’s life and work, featuring books, photographs, manuscripts, and literary documents, including previously unpublished materials donated by the writer to the museum during the final years of his life, according to IPN.
As part of the commemorative exhibition “The Man of Light: Vladimir Besleaga, 95 Years Since His Birth,” the public has access to a significant portion of the author’s personal archive and to accounts of his literary work.
The opening also featured the presentation of the book “Batranii din casuta cat nuca” by Vladimir Besleaga, published in 2026 by Epigraf Publishing House in Chisinau. The event was attended by writers, literary scholars, journalists, publishers, museum curators, family members, and admirers of his work.
Vladimir Besleaga was born on July 25, 1931, in the village of Malaiesti, Grigoriopol District, and passed away on February 25, 2025, at the age of 93. His novel “Zbor frant” (“Broken Flight”), published in 1966, is considered one of the most important works of postwar prose in the Republic of Moldova.

Freelance workers will be able to opt for the entire package of social benefits, including maternity or paternity leave, if they pay a higher social contribution. The Parliament has approved, in the first reading, a bill that extends social insurance rights for this category of people, reports IPN.
The initiative, drafted by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, aims to apply the principle of equal treatment between women and men who carry out independent activities and transposes into the legislation of the Republic of Moldova the European standards in the field.
According to the project, independent workers will be able to choose to benefit from the entire social benefits package by submitting a declaration to the National House of Social Insurance and paying an increased fixed tax, set annually by the State Social Insurance Budget Law.
In this case, they will have the right to compensation for temporary incapacity to work, maternity allowance, child-rearing allowance, paternity allowance, as well as a one-time allowance in the case of adopting a child. At the same time, the project stipulates that the wives of independent workers will also be able to benefit from maternity allowance.
The data from the State Fiscal Service shows that, in 2024, in the Republic of Moldova there were 50,879 registered independent workers who were contributing to the state social insurance budget. Currently, they only benefit from retirement due to age limit and death assistance, without having access to maternity benefits or other social services.
