Russia's Foreign Ministry outraged by Moldova closing airwaves to Kremlin's TV propaganda

Espreso.TV reports this with a reference to the Russian Foreign Ministry's website. 

Among the channels whose licenses were revoked are TV6, Orhei TV, Primul in Moldova, Accent TV, NTV Moldova, as well as RTR Moldova. The Russian Foreign Ministry believes that Russian national minorities are oppressed in Moldova.

“The authorities of the Republic of Moldova maintain a course to destroy any form of dissent in the country, using methods of totalitarian censorship to clear the national information space of the last cells of alternative points of view. Official Chisinau, hiding behind the imaginary concern for the protection of its citizens from "insufficiently correct" interpretations of the events taking place in Moldova and the world, is deliberately depriving millions of Russian-speaking residents of the country's last sources of news content in the language they speak. Hundreds of journalists will immediately lose their jobs due to the will of politicians who played with the censors,” the Foreign Ministry of the aggressor country wrote. 

The Russians also demand that international organizations assess what happened and take appropriate measures.

• On December 17, Moldova's National Commission for Emergency Situations suspended the licenses of 6 TV channels due to fake news about the war in Ukraine.
