People take part in an anti-government rally as part of the Movement for the People's protest action, in Chisinau, Moldova. The Moldovan opposition has been holding protests against rising prices and high gas and electricity tariffs for almost a year. The most massive rallies are held under the aegis of the Sor party. The demonstrators accuse the country's authorities of being unable to cope with the economic and energy crisis. They also criticize the Moldovan government for their reluctance to negotiate better gas prices with Russia, as well as for political pressure on opposition leaders. Sor urged his supporters to continue the protests until the country's leadership resigns.
