Chisinau, 13 February /MOLDPRES/ - President Maia Sandu, at a today’s news briefing, referred to Russia’s plans of Moldova’s destabilization and how the state’s institutions worked to ensure the country’s security. The head of state said that documents had been received on behalf of the Ukrainian partners, which imply the organization of more subversive activities, the presidential press servide has reported.   

„Through violent, masked actions or protests of the so-called opposition, they would try to force the change of the power in Chisinau. The documents received from our Ukrainian partners prove a good documentation of the locations and logistic aspects for the organization of these subversive activities. Also, the plan implies the use of people from abroad for the violent actions,’’ the Moldovan president noted.        

Maia Sandu gave assurances that the state’s institutions worked to prevent these provocations and that the situation was under control. At the same time, she asked all state’s institutions to prove maximum vigilance.   

„Moldova’s parliament must adopt, in the nearest future, the draft laws due to give the Intelligence and Security Service (SIS) and the Prosecutor’s Office the instruments needed to more efficiently combat the risks to the country’s security. All those who participate in these actions aimed against the state Republic of Moldova – external elements, members of political parties and crime rings, as well as those who protect them must be called to account,’’ President Maia Sandu stressed.      

The head of state says that the citizens’ safety and the country’s security represent the principal priority of the authorities. Maia Sandu specified that the latter, in continuation, would do their utmost to protect the state, the citizens and the public order.    

„I want to ask you to stay vigilant, be attentive and trust the official information, as the most aggressive form of attack is the information attack. The Kremlin’s attempts to bring violence in our country will fail. We should keep calm. We should trust the Republic of Moldova,’’ the Moldovan president added.
