Zakharova commented on Moldova's decision to demolish monuments

The Moldovan authorities, having approved the regulations on the demolition of monuments, will undoubtedly not stop there and will go further — they will begin to rewrite history and trample on Christian shrines. The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, told Izvestia on October 9.

Earlier in the day, the Moldovan Ministry of Culture approved a document allowing the demolition of monuments if they do not meet public interests or cause a risk of social conflict.

"There is no doubt that monuments to fighters against fascism and Nazism will go under the excavator. Against the background of increasingly active actions to glorify the same Romanian collaborators, subversive work will be carried out to rewrite the history of Moldova," the diplomat said.
