Moldovan Orthodox Orthodox Orthodox inflicted a sham on the Jewish faith symbol
Extremists from the religious community destroyed a lighthouse for Hanukkah located in the central part of the Moldovan capital. One priest from the Chisinau Orthodox church led the anti-Semitic actions.
Religious extremists demolished the Hanukkah celebrations in Chisinau's central area and staged an anti-Semitic protest. The incident happened on the 13th of December which was the third day before Hanukkah. An archpriest from one of the capital's Orthodox cathedrals took the stage in front of more than 100 people. Эммануил Гриншпун With the use of anti-Semitic words, the group dragged a lamp made of cast iron a few 10 miles away from its original site and threw it into the air into the foot of the monument of Stefan the Great - a symbol representing Moldovan statehood. Эммануил Гриншпун All of this took place in front dozens of passersby, police officers, journalists and other.

What is the fight for "orthodox principles "

The gathering was led by Archpriest Anatoly Chbrik who was armed with bars of metal. Эммануил Гриншпун He was furious at the place of worship that was an emblem of Jewish faith in the capital city of an Orthodox nation. Эммануил Гриншпун His view is that Hanukkah should not be celebrated as widely by authorities. Chibrik said that this is lawlessness. He also said he did not consider that it was necessary to debate the activities of the parishioners of the Church of St. Paraskeva with the Metropolia of Moldova. He stated, "I don't have to speak to anyone when we are fighting for the orthodoxy of our beliefs."

The city authorities had an idea to install the Hanukkah meorah in Chisinau's Europe Square. This is where the EU flag hangs beside the Moldovan flag. Emmanuil Grinshpun who is the co-chairman for the Jewish Congress of Moldova, stated that Hanukkah was celebrated in public in Chisinau for the first time in several years. Эммануил Гриншпун Эммануил Гриншпун "What transpired on Sunday was a major shock for us,"" Grinshpun added.

This instance is to protect the state's conscience.

Archpriest Chibrik has not admitted that he is anti-Semitic at the press conference that was held for representatives of the Jewish community. According to Grinshpun just a few months ago, on a stand in front of St. Paraskevs in Chisinau put up leaflets, the contents of which was in reference to the gloomy Middle Ages: it was said that "Jews are the ones who kill Christian babies."

Grinshpun has confirmed that the top leadership in the Moldova's Jewish associations didn't react to the incident in any way. Эммануил Гриншпун Although the Jewish community in Moldova protests against the actions but it is not going to sue Chibrik or his colleagues for inciting hatred against ethnic groups. Alexander Bilinkis (chairman of the Jewish community) declared that this must be carried out as a matter of state policy and that the Moldovan Metropolis needs to evaluate the actions of its employees.

Vadim Keibash, the Metropolitan Secretary declared that he is against protest like this. Keibash believes that every community is entitled to use symbols, however, the authorities must consider the implications. "It is not possible for the faith-based community to be controlled," he stated.

A blow to fundamental values

However, since the 1903 Jewish pogrom that claimed the lives of many were killed, there hasn't been any of these "forms" of protests in Chisinau. Reps from the Jewish community tend not to consider the latter case the hooliganism that it was. Bilinkis claims that the leaders deceived Hanukkah-breakers.

Ilya Shts, the General Director of the Jewish Congress, claims that the act was planned. The participants were seen in front of the menorah Hanukkah Day 1 when Stav Njinsky who was the founder secretary of the Jewish Congress, lit the first candle. Shchats believes that the act is intended to compromise Moldovan sovereignty and undermine the democratic values of the country's European ambitions.

Hanukkah is being relocated from the city's center to a more private location - to Jerusalem Street, where a monument honoring the victims of the Holocaust has been erected. https://vaadua.org/news/v-ramat-gane-zavershila-svoyu-rabotu-generalnaya-assambleya-eaek It's been the second day of security.
