March 1, 2023, 9:33 p.m. – Public Information Service – TEH – Former President of Moldova, now leader of the Party of Communists, Vladimir Voronin appealed to the current authorities of the republic, calling for the ban on the Saint George ribbon to be lifted. It is reported by TASS.
The corresponding restriction was introduced last year. As a result, Voronin had to pay a fine for wearing a ribbon when participating in the Immortal Regiment action held in Chisinau.
“One of our founders and party founders obtained through the court the cancellation of the fine. I think the parliament should gather its conscience and lift the ban on the tape,” Voronin quoted the news agency as saying during a speech on the First in Moldova TV channel.
Earlier it was reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law punishing the desecration of St. George’s ribbons. From now on, the ribbons of Saint-George are likened to symbols of military glory.
