Political Party protests in front of Russian embassy

Tens of members of the Moldovan Liberal Party (PL) picketed the Russian Embassy in Chisinau on Monday and then went to protest in front of the Government. They have expressed their sympathy with the Georgians, now in conflict with the Russian Federation, and condemned the Moldovan officials' lack of reaction concerning the situation, Info-Prim Neo reports. The Liberals had posters and a Georgian flag. “We're solidary with the Georgian people, all the more that we have the same problem – the Transnistrian problem. We wonder why the Moldovan Government keeps silence, because the empires would be empires: Georgia today, Moldova may be the next,” the PL leader Mihai Ghimpu stated . Asked whether he expected any statement from the Russian officials in the embassy, the Liberals' leader said “the imperialists look from above at small peoples.” “It's a big shame to think that the problems are to be solved with the armored car in the 21st century,” he said.
