On Saturday, 26 September, the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova (PCRM) organised a flash mob outside the Government headquarters. The event was held under the slogan ‘PAS’s anti-crisis plan – prayer!’.
PCRM Chairwoman Diana Caraman stated that the Government must present concrete measures in the event of a possible rise in gas and fuel prices.
“Instead of asking people to pray for a mild winter, the PAS Government must specify exactly what measures it will take if gas and fuel prices rise and families are unable to pay their bills,” said Caraman.
A new protest is scheduled for Monday, 28 September, outside the headquarters of the National Energy Regulatory Agency (ANRE).
Representatives of the “Democracy at Home” party have stated that they oppose the decision to increase the price of natural gas by 6 lei per cubic metre. They have urged citizens affected by the tariff rise to join the protest and demand a review of the decision, as well as an explanation of the economic justification for the increase.
Ion Chicu, president of the Party for the Development and Unification of Moldova, also urged citizens to join the protest.
“Dear Moldovans, gas and electricity tariffs depend on two factors – international prices and domestic corruption. Come to ANRE on Monday at 10.00!”, wrote Chicu.
It should be noted that on Monday, 28 September 2026, during a public meeting of the ANRE Board of Directors, tariffs for natural gas and district heating are due to be examined.
Previously, requests to this effect had been submitted by Energocom, Termoelectrica and CET-Nord.
