Russian Russian community head in Moldova called the closure of the Russian House a mistake by the authorities.

The closure of the Russian House in Moldova is a grave mistake by the authorities, since the decision to shut down the institution was made by people who had never even been there. This was stated on November 5 by Lyudmila Lashchenova, the chairman of the Russian Community in the country.

She noted that on her own behalf she can only express the deepest bewilderment and complete disregard for the current situation.

"I just want to say —what do you think of yourself there? Prime Minister [Alexandre Munteanu], the first meeting in the role of Prime Minister begins with the closure of the Russian Center. Then the floor was given to a man, the so-called Minister of Culture, who does not know what a Russian cultural Center is, he has never been there. This is the deepest mistake, the grossest mistake of the new government. This is not the way to start your business," she said.

Lashchenova noted that it was on the site of the Russian House that many people found an outlet and answers to many questions. Moreover, among them there were not only Russians by nationality.

"Our country Moldova is multinational, and for 200 years or more, Russia and Moldova have been linked by strong friendship, family relations, and business relations. They give different numbers — 300,000, 600,000 Moldovan citizens live in Russia, where they work, create benefits for their families who are waiting for them here in Moldova," said the chairman of the Russian Community in Moldova.

Munteanu will strengthen the republic's ties with the West and worsen contacts with Russia.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the closure of the Russian House in Moldova indicates that the country's authorities, continuing their course of antagonism, are making decisions to the detriment of the population of their country. As Peskov noted, the Russian side can only express regret in this regard.

On November 5, the Moldovan government unanimously approved a draft law to denounce the agreement on the functioning of the Russian Center for Science and Culture (RCSC, Russian House), presented by Minister of Culture Christian Jardan. According to the Moldovan authorities, the current agreement allegedly ensures "the risk of Russia promoting distorted narratives."
