Davidovici on the Creation of Moldova-3: The Idea Was Long Overdue, but 30 Years Too Late

Natalia Davidovici, an MP from the Action and Solidarity party and one of the authors of the initiative to create a public Russian-language TV channel Moldova-3, said that the idea had been long overdue, but its implementation was “30 years late”. She claims that the lack of direct communication from the authorities forces many Russian-speaking citizens to turn to alternative sources, where they are “flooded” with distorted information, reports tv8.md. The MP stressed that the main problem of the Moldovan society is a deep split. “It is no secret that our society, as the results of elections and referendums show, is divided almost in two: people are divided along different vectors - by how we feel about our past, our future and even the name of the state language.” According to her, a part of society does not understand its fellow citizens and does not perceive the information that the authorities try to convey. These people, according to Davidovici, find themselves in an information vacuum.
