Up to 100,000 people gathered in Chişinău's Great National Assembly Square on November 3 for “a rally in support of their country’s accession to Europe,” reports Adevărul Moldova, quoting figures released by protest organisers.
Demonstrators - who police said numbered only 60,000 – waved European flags and carried placards — including “We fight for Europe” — in English, after they were encouraged to take to the streets by the ruling pro-European coalition government.
Only a few weeks before a summit in Vilnius where Moldova plans to sign an Association Agreement with the EU, we want to say that having experienced life in “in Italy, France, Austria and Poland, we want to be on the same level,” remarks the daily.
