Prime Minister Dorin Recean delivered a firm message to the key institutions fighting corruption and organized crime, stating that Moldova has reached a turning point. He met with representatives of the Prosecutor General’s Office, the Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, etc. He identified two urgent priorities: genuine institutional cooperation and the fight against electoral corruption.
“We have seen how electoral corruption can destroy a country’s sovereignty. It is not just one institution’s problem—it is a shared responsibility that endangers national security,” Recean stated. He strongly criticized institutional inaction, internal blockages, and the shifting of responsibility, emphasizing that the government would no longer tolerate such behavior.
The Prime Minister warned about the risk posed by recent legislative manipulations related to the amnesty law, which could have released dangerous criminals. He called these actions “a moral and institutional disaster” and demanded that such schemes never happen again.

Recean also announced that authorities sanctioned over 6,000 individuals for electoral corruption in the previous elections. Criminal investigations currently target more than 140,000 citizens. With the parliamentary elections set for this fall, he called on all institutions to step up and take full responsibility.
“We can let this opportunity slip away because of fear, passivity, or indifference, or we can unite and take action to build a European state founded on justice and dignity,” the Prime Minister concluded.
Parliament Speaker Igor Grosu previously announced that Moldova will hold parliamentary elections on September 28, 2025, after PAS deputies submitted the proposal for the election date.
