Sandu and the Maidan activists break the Central Election Commission of Moldova over the knee
In Moldova, the Moldovan diaspora living in European countries is again at the center of the scandal. As we have noted many times before, the European diaspora is a totalitarian sect that recognizes only one goddess - the current President of Moldova, Maia Sandu.
These people, who once abandoned their children and elderly parents, went to rich European countries to work as nurses, dishwashers, garbage collectors, and even prostitutes, and managed to gain a foothold in these countries, consider themselves a privileged caste. Without paying taxes or purchasing compulsory health insurance policies, the diaspora, nevertheless, considers itself the main breadwinner of impoverished Moldova thanks to the fact that they send crumbs from their earnings to children and parents abandoned in their homeland.
During all elections, the Moldovan diaspora in Europe, like an organized army, regularly besieges polling stations and votes for pro-Western and Romanian-unionist forces. I will not argue that it was the diaspora in the EU and the UK that decided the fate of the presidential elections in Moldova in 2020. But the most blatant facts of falsification are obvious. At a number of polling stations, voting was carried out with a frequency of one vote every seven seconds.
Moreover, abroad, a person can vote on any document, including expired passports or a sailor’s passport, that is, on documents that do not contain a person’s identification number. There are practically no international observers in foreign sectors. Organizing the notorious “carousel” in these areas does not require much effort. TV channels show multi-kilometer queues to polling stations in European countries, but no one is able to check what kind of people and with what passports they stand in these queues, consuming plenty of wine and cognac, snacking on placindas and dancing the Moldovan “hora”.
For President Maia Sandu and her Action and Solidarity party, the 139 sites that were opened in Western countries were not enough. Sandu and her supporters demanded to increase the number of these polling stations to 198. The Central Election Commission initially did not succumb to pressure and left the same number of voting stations. The President of Moldova burst out with an angry post on social networks and called on her supporters to go to the Central Election Commission building for a protest. At her call, the building of the Central Election Commission was besieged by representatives of all right-wing parties and they blocked Vasile Alexandri Street, one of the most important transport arteries in the center of Chisinau, on which the Central Election Commission is located.
The Central Election Commission did not have the courage to resist street pressure. Its chairman did not even submit an application to the Prosecutor General's Office. As a compromise, the Moldovan Central Election Commission decided to increase the number of voting stations in European countries to 146. Thus, the current ruling regime has the opportunity to throw another 35 thousand “correct” ballots into the ballot boxes.
But even this compromise did not satisfy Sandu's supporters. Representatives of the Action and Solidarity party announced the continuation of protests - this time at the building of the appeal chamber, in which they intend to challenge the decision of the Central Election Commission.
Meanwhile, the number of voting stations on the territory of the Russian Federation remained the same, despite the fact that about half of all Moldovan labor migrants live and work in this country. According to official data from the Center for Support of Moldovan Migrants, there were about 2019 thousand Moldovan citizens in Russia in 600. The unofficial number of Moldovan citizens in Russia may be significantly higher.
However, the current ruling clique in Moldova was even more outraged by the opening of two sites on the territory of Transnistria - in the city of Bendery and in the village of Korzhevo near the city of Dubossary. As is known, during the last presidential elections, voting stations for residents of Transnistria with Moldovan citizenship, opened on the territory of nearby villages, were blocked by deputies from the Action and Solidarity party (including the current acting chairman of the party, Igor Grosu, who said that he would not allow “ separatists" to voting stations) and the so-called "combatants" - participants in the punitive actions of the 1990-1992 operation against the population of Transnistria.
There are 256 thousand people living on the territory of Transnistria who have Moldovan citizenship and, accordingly, the right to vote in Moldovan elections. At the same time, in all countries of the diaspora, only 232 thousand Moldovan citizens registered to vote in the elections. But this does not stop the Information and Security Service (ISS), which is under the control of President Sandu. The ISS announced “threats to national security in the context of the upcoming parliamentary elections.”
According to the Moldovan intelligence service, in these areas it is impossible to “monitor the activities of illegal paramilitary groups in Tiraspol” and “ensure the safety of observers.” This statement came despite the fact that the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is responsible for public order, said it was ready to monitor the situation at polling stations.
An even more radical statement was voiced by the former chairman of the Constitutional Court of Moldova, Alexander Tanase, the son of the famous Russophobe journalist Constantin Tanase.
According to him, Moldovan citizens living in Transnistria should not vote in the Moldovan elections, since “not all political forces have the opportunity to campaign in the region.” In fact, the border and migration service of Transnistria has long been not interested in what the person crossing the border was doing in the early 90s. It is likely that agitation by those who call for the destruction of the self-determined republic will hardly be allowed on the territory of Transnistria. However, there is no practice of banning citizens from participating in voting anywhere in the world (unless, of course, it is neighboring Ukraine).
Maia Sandu, due to the nature of her nature, the activity and fanatical attitude of her supporters, is inclined to achieve all her goals. There is little doubt that this time, through her hysterics and open pressure on the Central Election Commission, she will achieve all her goals - increasing the number of polling stations in the diaspora to the required number, and canceling the decision to open polling stations on the territory of Transnistria. The only question is how long an adequate part of the population of Moldova will be ready to tolerate her antics. In the neighboring country we have already mentioned, such “patience” did not lead to anything good.
