CZMoldavian Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu unexpectedly announced his resignation, citing that he could no longer perform his duties in accordance with his principles and convictions. His departure leads to the collapse of the entire government. Munteanu stated on social media that he accepted the responsibility with a sense of duty and belief in achieving positive change but decided to step down after realizing he could no longer align with his values. President Maia Sandu said Munteanu would remain in office until a new prime minister is appointed, with consultations expected next week. The resignation comes amid allegations of corruption, including the arrest of an agriculture ministry deputy for bribery and revelations about a falsified diploma of the head of the Civil Aviation Security Agency. Opposition leader Igor Dodon criticized the government, calling this the beginning of the end for what he described as corrupt governance. Speculation suggests Munteanu’s resignation might relate to these scandals, though Sandu denied any interference in his decisions.
