“The opposition’s document contains a great many articles, yet they provide no real evidence for the allegations made and bear no relation to reality. It is manipulation in the classic sense of propaganda; reality is being turned on its head. International awards are being used as a shameful pretext to support their intention to oust the country’s president. For them, international recognition is a violation, and donations are labelled as bribes. The awards were presented in recognition of the defence of democracy, the promotion of the European path and efforts to modernise the country. It is a source of pride for Moldova to have transformed itself from an isolated country into one that is held in high regard,” stated Igor Grosu.
The Speaker stated that the initiative is backed by former presidents, prime ministers and mayors who, in his view, share common interests and oppose European integration.
“They blame the President for every government issue, most recently even for the global rise in gas prices. And then, in the document, they criticise the President for dealing with the affairs of state. In other words, it’s utter nonsense. In their minds, the president is to blame for all the affairs of state, but under no circumstances should he be allowed to deal with the affairs of state,” said Grosu.
According to the Speaker of Parliament, the draft has been analysed, including from a legal perspective, and will not be accepted onto the legislature’s agenda. He pointed out that the opposition has the right to initiate such a procedure, but the authorities cannot accept accusations which they consider to be unfounded.
It should be noted that the parliamentary opposition has initiated proceedings to suspend President Maia Sandu from office. The opposition alleges that the head of state has violated the principle of the separation of powers and the obligation of political impartiality. The draft resolution, signed by 46 MPs from five opposition political parties, was registered with the Parliament’s secretariat on 29 September 2026. The draft was not included on the agenda for the parliamentary session.
