The report that last year three Moldavian banks transferred about $1 billion abroad through offshore companies without the knowledge of the central bank has aroused mass protests in the country. Led by Left parties, protesters demand the resignation of the central bank governor and the prime minister, early parliamentary and presidential elections.
Recently, protesters have forced members of Moldavia’s parliament to give sanction to the arrest of the prime suspect, namely MP and former premier Vladimir Filat. Observers think such concessions kindle leftists’ enthusiasm to change a pro-Western political course and improve relations with Russia.
