The leader of "Ravnopravie" Movement Valery Klimenko announced plans to create a commission for studying the consequences of the totalitarian, dictatorial and anti-democratic regimes that ruled Moldova in the 20th century, Info-Prim Neo reports. Valery Klimenko said he forms part of a group of representatives of the civil society that want to set up a new commission as the commission for studying the totalitarian Communist regime created by presidential decree “tendentiously treats the events in particular and history in general.” During a news conference on March 3, Klimenko said he is inclined to agree with Valeriy Litskai, the former foreign minister of Transnistria, who said recently that “Moldova is on the brink of a civil war that could start after Ghimpu's commission makes its conclusions public.” “Why the 30 members of the commission aim to analyze only the period during which the Communists had been in power? Aren't there enough questions as to the period between 1918 and 1940, when the locals were shot for the simple reason that they spoke the mother tongue – Russian? What kind of regime did we have in 1941-1944? What kinds of regimes did we have during the last 20 years,” Klimenko asked rhetorically. The leader of "Ravnopravie" said the commission will include 40 to 50 scientists from Moldova, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, the U.S., Germany and other countries. The main criterion for selecting them will be professionalism. The list of members of the commission will be announced in a week, he said.
