We condemn Russia’s military aggression against the people of Ukraine. War is the most barbaric way to deprive people of their rights. Through these aggressive actions, the Russian Federation has flagrantly violated international law and exposed to risk and violence not only the Ukrainian people and the international community, but also its own citizens.
In these conditions, the Promo-LEX Association expresses its readiness to provide assistance to the national authorities, but also to the Ukrainian citizens who are in dire need of help.
We call on international organizations to take all necessary action under international law to stop Russia’s aggression immediately. The response of international organizations and the community must include measures to discourage and sanction the aggressor state, but especially to protect the rights and civil liberties of the people of Ukraine.
In these difficult times, as never before in the last thirty years, it is important that all citizens of the Republic of Moldova, but also all political forces alike, show unity, solidarity, calm and responsibility.
At the same time, we urge the media in the Republic of Moldova to refrain from distributing false news, hate speech, propaganda, to combat misinformation and to report correctly and responsibly the topics related to the crisis in the region, using official sources of information. The information space of the Republic of Moldova must be secured urgently.
It is important that the authorities of the Republic of Moldova communicate continuously with its citizens, but also with civil society, in order to provide information on the measures taken at national level in the context of the announced exceptional situation.
Democracy, diplomacy and human rights must be a priority for the entire international community, but also for the authorities of the Republic of Moldova. Today’s realities have exposed our civilization to an enormous humanitarian crisis, and its outcome depends on the actions of each of us.
War, throughout human history, has been the most heinous means of upholding national interests. In our century, the century of reason and common sense, we must oppose this barbaric and inhuman practice and defend, at all costs, democracy and fundamental human rights.
We stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and express our full support for their endurance in these extremely difficult times.
