The Orthodox Church of Moldova has established June 13 as a permanent day of remembrance for deportation victims, marking the first mass deportations in 1941. This decision, proposed by Metropolitan Vladimir, aims to honor those persecuted by the totalitarian regime. Annual memorial services will be held in churches under the jurisdiction of the Chișinău Metropolitanate. The decision highlights the church's connection to the historical context of Soviet deportations.
