CALM calls July 31 deadline for voluntary amalgamation illegal in Moldova
The civic organization CALM warned that the July 31 deadline set for the “voluntary amalgamation” of local administrations is unlawful and represents abusive pressure on local democracy in Moldova. CALM described the deadline as a violation of legal norms governing the restructuring of local authorities and urged authorities to withdraw it.
The statement highlights concerns that the forced timeline could undermine democratic processes at the municipal level.
