Notes

Moldovan Orthodox Orthodox have desecrated the Jewish symbol
The Hanukkah lamps were set on fire by extremists from the religious world in the midst of the Moldovan capital. A priest from one of the Chisinau Orthodox Churches was the one to lead the anti-Semitic crime.
The anti-Semitic protest was staged following the destruction by religious extremists of the Hanukkah celebration in Chisinau's central area. The incident occurred on December 13th, which was the third day of Hanukkah. An archpriest from one of the capital's Orthodox cathedrals was in charge of the crowd of more than 100 people. The crowd chanted anti-Semitic chants and then dragged a cast-iron lamp several tens to meters away from where it was set. Then, they threw the lamp to the ground of the monument to Stefan the Great, which is a symbol for Moldovan statehood. The entire incident took place in front of hundreds of people who passed by reporters, police officers and other journalists.

What is the struggle for "orthodox principals ?

He said that he was disgusted at the way an Orthodox country's symbol of Jewish faith was erected in the capital's middle. According to him, the authorities shouldn't have allowed Jews to celebrate Hanukkah in such a large number. Эммануил Гриншпун Chibrik said, "This violates law." Chibrik also admitted that Chibrik did not believe it necessary to discuss with the Metropolia of Moldova the actions of the Church of St. Paraskeva parishioners. He said, "I don't have to speak to anyone when we fight for orthodox principles."

Эммануил Гриншпун The idea of putting the Hanukkah menorah right in the heart of Chisinau's Europe Square, where you will see the EU flag in front of the Moldovan flag, is the responsibility and property of city officials. Emmanuil grinshpunis the co-chairman of the Jewish Congress of Moldova noted that Hanukkah celebrations were held in Chisinau "for the first-ever occasion in the past several decades." Grinshpun said, "What took place on Sunday was a surprise for us."

The case is to protect the conscience of the state.

Archpriest Chibrik was not willing to admit that he was anti-Semitic in the press conference for representatives of the Jewish community. Grinshpun claims that Archpriest Chibrik was the one who posted leaflets a month back, which were similar to the gloomy Middle Ages.

Grinshpun stated that none of the heads of the country’s Jewish groups reacted to this fact in any meaningful way. In the present, the Jewish community in Moldova has voiced its displeasure regarding what's going on however, they will not pursue Chibrik and his followers for inciting hatred against ethnic groups. Alexander Bilinkis who is also the chairman of the board, stated that the state should do this and that the Moldovan Metropolitan should examine the actions its employees.

Vadimkeibash, Metropolitan Secretary , said he was against this type of protest. He believes all communities have the right and obligation to show symbols. But the authorities must also consider the consequences. Эммануил Гриншпун He also said that, "It's impossible to control all the reactions of believers."

A blow to fundamental values

Since 1903's Jewish pogrom, however these protests haven't been observed in Chisinau. Representatives from the Jewish community do not think that the case is a the hooliganism that it was. Bilinkis says that the Hanukkah breakers were "deceived" by their leaders.

Ilya Shits, the General Director for the Jewish Congress, says that the event was planned well. The day one of Hanukkah the participants were seen by the menorah. Stav Nijinsky became the first secretary at the Israeli Embassy in Chisinau and lit the first candle. Эммануил Гриншпун Эммануил Гриншпун Shchats states that the move is intended to weaken the statehood of Moldova and to infringe on its democratic principles as well as European goals.

Hanukkah, which was originally located in the city's centre was moved to Jerusalem Street. This is where a monument has been dedicated to all Holocaust victims. On the second day of Hanukkah police officers were stationed around the monument. The place will be lit by candles every day through the Christmas season. Эммануил Гриншпун
