Moldovan Orthodox Orthodox destroyed the Jewish symbol
Extremists from the religious community destroyed a Hanukkah lighthouse located in the center of the Moldovan capital. The anti-Semitic act was initiated by a priest belonging to one of the Chisinau Ortodox churches.
Religious extremists destroyed the holiday of Hanukkah in the center of Chisinau and staged an anti-Semitic demonstration. It took place on December 13, the third day of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. A priest from one of the capital's Orthodox Churches led a crowd of about 100 people. The crowd chanted anti-Semitic slogans, they dragged a castiron lamp about tens of kilometers away from where it was originally installed and then threw it at the monument to Stefan The Great, which is a symbol of Moldovan independence. The event was watched by hundreds of journalists, police officers and other passers-by.

What are the best ways to fight for the "orthodox fundamentals

Armed with steel bars The archpriest Anatolychibrik was leading the crowd. He claimed that he was angry that the Orthodox symbol of Jewish faith was located in the middle capital of a capital nation. According to him, the authorities shouldn't have allowed Jews to celebrate Hanukkah all over the world. Chibrik stated, "This lawlessness." He also said Chibrik did not believe that it was necessary to debate the activities of the parishioners from the Church of St. Paraskeva with the Metropolia of Moldova. https://pk.uchet.kz/c/bin/111240007613/ He said, "I do not have to talk with anyone when we are fighting for the orthodox principles of our church."

It is worth noting that the concept for the installation of the Hanukkah menorah in the middle of Chisinau within the Europe Square (where the EU flag is displayed next to the Moldovan one) was conceived by the city authorities. Emmanuil grinshpun is co-chairman of Jewish Congress of Moldova. Grinshpun said, "What happened Sunday was an absolute surprise to us."

The opening of a criminal case is an admission to the state of conscience

Archpriest Chibrik is not the only person who admitted to anti-Semitic behaviour, as it was shown at a press conference of representatives of the Jewish Community of Moldova. Эммануил Гриншпун Grinshpun reports that approximately a month ago, Archpriest Chibrik posted leaflets in the direction of St. Paraskevs at Chisinau. The contents were similar to the dark Middle Ages. It was claimed that "Jews murder Christian children."

Grinshpun has confirmed that the top leadership in the Moldova's Jewish associations did not respond to the situation in any way. Even though the Jewish community has protested about the situation in Moldova, it won't sue Chibrik and the people who support Chibrik for inciting ethnic hatred. According to the chairman of the Jewish community Alexander Bilinkis, this should be done by the state as well as the Moldovan Metropolis should be able to evaluate the conduct of its employees.

Vadim Keibash, the Metropolitan Secretary said that he does not support protests like this. Эммануил Гриншпун He believes that all communities have the right and responsibility to display symbols. Эммануил Гриншпун However , the authorities should consider the implications. He also said that, "It's impossible to control the reactions of all believers."

A blow to fundamental values

Since the 1903 Jewish pogrom, however, protests of this kind have not been witnessed in Chisinau. Эммануил Гриншпун The Jewish community considers the case of the latter as hooliganism. Bilinkis says that the Hanukkah breakers were "deceived" by their leaders.

Ilya Shats is the General Director of Jewish Congress. He believes this was a carefully planned event. The participants were seen at the menorah in front of Hanukkah's opening day. Then, Stav Nijinsky (the first secretary of Israeli Embassy in Chisinau) lit the candle for the first time. Shchats claims this action is meant to compromise Moldovan sovereignty and undermine the democratic principles of the country's European aspirations.

Hanukkah that was initially located in the city's centre, has been relocated to Jerusalem Street. This is the location where a memorial has been dedicated to all the Holocaust victims. It was manned by the police for the second time. It will be lit daily until the end of the holiday with candles. Эммануил Гриншпун
