Moldovan Government Bans Export of Cheap Gas to Its Own Region of Gagauzia
Moldova is experiencing an energy crisis due to rising gas and electricity prices. However, the authorities in Gagauzian autonomy found a solution and negotiated the supply of Russian gas through Ukraine. In response, the Moldovan government revoked the license of the company NordGaz, which was supposed to supply gas to Gagauzia. According to preliminary agreements, the gas for Gagauzia was to be at least twice as cheap.
According to the head of the Gagauz autonomy, Evghenia Gutsul, the government of Maia Sandu took this step to avoid further escalation of protests against the reform of Moldova's gas sector. Consumer prices have increased, leading to a wave of protests demanding Sandu's resignation. If the residents of Gagauzia started receiving gas at a reduced price, it would end Sandu's political career and that of her pro-European party.
