Noul premier al Republicii Moldova, în fața primelor mari proteste: „Lucrurile stau prost la capitolul bugetar. N-o să fiu populist”

Moldovan Prime Minister Vasile Tofan addressed protesting educators in Chișinău, acknowledging their salary demands while highlighting budget constraints. He emphasized the need for transparency in financial decisions and promised to engage directly with citizens. The protest, organized by the Federation of Education and Science Unions, calls for a salary increase commitment by September 2026. Unions warn of potential nationwide protests if demands are unmet, with a national action planned for World Teachers' Day on October 5.
