Approximately 200 elderly people gathered again in the Great National Assembly Square on June 3 to protest against the increasing prices of food products. The pensioners expressed their dissatisfaction with the rising prices and demanded that the authorities provide them with pensions of a corresponding size.

The protesters submitted a resolution to the Government, demanding that it adjusts the pensions to the minimum consumer basket and accusing Union Fenosa, Apa-Canal Chisinau and Termocom of non-transparently and inaccurately measuring the power, gas and heat consumption.

Protest coordinator Maia Laguta said that the resolution gives the authorities two weeks to satisfy protesters’ demands.
