Political developments in Gagauzia

Overview

Political tension in Gagauzia has centered on leadership stability and regional autonomy. Interim governor Ilia Uzun requested that the People's Assembly of Comrat postpone upcoming gubernatorial elections, pending a Supreme Court of Justice ruling regarding Evghenia Guțul. Uzun characterized Guțul’s seven-year prison sentence for illegal party financing as “purely political.”

In a separate development, politician Fiodor Gagauz launched a public consultation campaign titled ‘Vocea poporului găgăuz’ (Voice of the Gagauz People). The initiative seeks to address concerns regarding the loss of regional competencies and a “de facto impasse” in relations between Comrat and Chisinau. The campaign aims to gather citizen proposals to advocate for the preservation of Gagauzia’s autonomy within the Republic of Moldova.
