The Moldovan authorities are killing the economy of the republic, the former head of Gagauzia said.

The authorities of Moldova refuse to support entrepreneurs, which is why they are forced to leave the country, all this leads to the murder of the economy, the former head of Gagauzia, a potential candidate for the presidency, Irina Vlah said on the Telegram channel.

“Already, more than 200 thousand citizens, mostly young people, have left the country, who now work and pay taxes, open and develop businesses in other countries. Without support from the state, entrepreneurs take their capital and leave the country, this is the worst thing, what could happen: people who know how to run a business and create jobs are leaving the country. This is deadly for the economy,” Vlah wrote.

According to her, we need to “not wait for the mercy of development partners, their grants and loans,” but to act. For example, adopt a national program to solve pressing business problems.

“Business problems are not always just a lack of funds. There are administrative and financial problems. These measures do not require a lot of money. A permanent crisis commission could solve a lot of small problems that today are preventing our business from even developing – from surviving,” Vlah emphasized.


Moldova has been experiencing another wave of economic crisis for several years. In 2022, inflation in Moldova reached a record 30.2%. In 2023, inflation in Moldova was 13.4%. Due to rising prices for energy resources, the population’s debts for utility services are growing. Against the background of rising prices for energy resources, as well as rising inflation, anti-government protests are spontaneously taking place in the country.
