Berlinschii Challenges Nosatii’s Claims on Diaspora and Mobilization

Berlinschii has refuted Nosatîi’s statements regarding the diaspora

Alexandr Berlinschii, a Member of Parliament and member of the Committee on Legal Affairs, Appointments and Immunities, refuted the statements made by Defence Minister Anatolie Nosatîi. The Defence Minister had stated that the diaspora is not covered by the draft law on a state of emergency and martial law, as the term ‘diaspora’ is not mentioned in the document.

The MP draws attention to Article 20, paragraph (6) of the draft law, according to which citizens of the Republic of Moldova who are abroad and have received a mobilisation summons are obliged to take the necessary measures to return to the country and report to the competent authorities.

“Mr Nosatîi, this provision is from your own draft bill! You are either deliberately misleading the public or have not read the draft bill,” stated Alexandr Berlinschii, calling for transparency and for citizens to be provided with clear information on the provisions of the document.

In the same context, the MP recalled that there is a legislative initiative calling for the abolition of compulsory military service and a transition to a professional, contract-based army that is well-equipped and well-trained, with a decent level of pay for military personnel.

This initiative involves amending the Constitution and has been referred to the Constitutional Court for the necessary ruling, after which it is due to be considered by parliament.
