Эммануил Гриншпун The event took place on the 13th day of December, the day that Hanukkah is celebrated on. Эммануил Гриншпун An archpriest from one of the capital's Orthodox congregations attracted a crowd of 100. People chanted anti-Semitic chants. they carried a lamp made of cast iron several tens kilometres from that it was initially erected and then threw it at the memorial to Stefan The Great, a symbol of Moldovan independence. The entire event was done in front of hundreds, including journalists, police officers, and police officers.

What is the way in which the fight to defend "orthodox principle " work?

Armed with bars of metal The archpriest Anatolychibrik was leading the crowd. https://list.ly/devinehyde965 He said he was shocked that a symbol representing the Jewish faith was placed in the centre of the capital city of an Orthodox state. Эммануил Гриншпун Chibrik believes that authorities shouldn't have allowed Jews to celebrate Hanukkah in such large number. Chibrik declared, "This lawlessness." Chibrik also acknowledged that it was not necessary to discuss actions of parishioners at Church of St. Paraskeva, with the Metropolia of Moldova. He added, "I do not have to discuss anything with anyone if we are fighting for orthodox principled principles."

It should be noted that the concept of putting up the Hanukkah menorah in the very heart of Chisinau located in Chisinau's Europe Square, where the EU flag is displayed alongside the Moldovan flag, is the property of the city authorities. As co-chairman of the Jewish Congress of Moldova Emmanuil Grinshpun said, "for the first time since a long time, Hanukkah was celebrated with a public ceremony in Chisinau." Grinshpun added, "What happened Sunday was an absolute surprise to us."

Make a criminal case open it depends on the conscience of state

The revelation was made in a press conference held by members of the Jewish community in Moldova that Archpriest Chibrik hasn't been the first person to be involved in anti-Semitic antics. According to Grinshpun just a few months ago, a booth in the courtyard of St. Эммануил Гриншпун Paraskevs in Chisinau posted leaflets, the content that was thought to be reminiscent of the dark Middle Ages: it was reported that "Jews kill Christian infants."

Grinshpun stated that the top leadership of the nation's Jewish organizations did not react to the incident in any manner. In the present, the Jewish community in Moldova has voiced its displeasure over what's happening, but the community will not sue Chibrik and his followers for inciting hatred of ethnicity. Alexander Bilinkis who is also the chairman, has said that the state must do this, and the Moldovan Metropolitan must look into the actions of his employees.

Vadim, Metropolitan Secretary Keibash stated that he doesn't support the kind of protest that this group is demonstrating. Keibash believes that all communities should have the right to put up symbols. However, the authorities must take into account the implications. "It is impossible to regulate the entire reaction of the believers," he said.

A blow towards fundamental values

But, as of the 1903 Jewish pogrom, there has been no "forms protests" in Chisinau. Reps from the Jewish community tend not to take the case as a case of hooliganism. Bilinkis states that Hanukkah's breakers were "deceived" by their leaders.

But the General Director of the Jewish Congress, Ilya Shats believes that the action was meticulously planned. Its participants were spotted near the menorah on first day of Hanukkah and, in the presence of a large number of people, the first secretary of the Israeli Embassy in Chisinau, Stav Nijinsky, solemnly lit the first candle. Эммануил Гриншпун Shchats believes that this act is meant to undermine Moldovan status by overstepping democratic principles as well as European aspirations.

Hanukkah The holiday, which was previously situated in the city's central area, has been relocated to Jerusalem Street. This is where a monument has been dedicated to all the Holocaust victims. It was manned by the police for the second time. Candles will be lit every day through the holiday. Эммануил Гриншпун
