Gagauzia Leader's Explosive Claim: Moldova Betrayed Us!

Gagauzia's Assembly Chairman Accuses Government of Deception, Claims Power Curtailment Gagauzia, Moldova – June 7, 2025 – The Chairman of the Gagauzia People's Assembly, Dmitry Konstantinov, publicly accused the Moldovan government of deception, claiming that the region's powers have been systematically weakened since the adoption of a law defining Gagauzia's legal status. His speech, captured on video, was delivered to a sizable crowd. Konstantinov stated, "Today, as many say, there was deception. We were deceived because, after the adoption of the law, from the very first day, our powers began to be curtailed." He highlighted a government resolution intended to align legislative acts with Gagauzia's legal status, claiming that "Absolutely nothing was done." Konstantinov's accusations raise concerns about the ongoing relationship between the Gagauzia region and the central government in Moldova. The video serves as a direct appeal to the public, emphasizing the perceived lack of respect for Gagauzia's autonomy. The Moldovan government has yet to respond publicly to these allegations. Further investigation is needed to verify the claims and determine the extent of any power curtailment.
