Russia had almost 20 tentatives to declare Vlad Plahotniuc in international search. This was revealed by the PDM leader in an interview for Deschide.md.

The numbers of the requests is really big. The Russians noticed that Interpol rejects those, because this is politic harassment. Thus, to be more confident, they obtained prosecutors' decisions to incriminate him, but  those were rejected, being classified as political pressure. 

According to Vlad Plahotniuc, everything started with Laundromat criminal file that provided money laundering in sum of 22 milliard USD, money coming from Russia, through Moldovan banks. The ones targeted in the penal case tried to influence the Chisinau governance, to block the developing of the case. 

The leader of the democrats says that there was a direct pressure upon the deputies in the moment the laws were voted, according to the security of the banking system, because this meant blocking some criminal groups from Russia, that used the banks from Moldova in illegal actions.

Moreover, Plahotniuc highlighted the thing that Moscow hided the criminal file on racial, political, ideological and ethic hate, because it is pretty clear that this is fake. The Interpol also concluded this, because it refused to announce Plahotniuc in international search. 

He mentioned that he doesn't know anything about the penal fugitive Renato Usatii, the one who initiated the criminal file.

Vlad Plahotniuc mentioned that the Russian Special Services are desperate. Recently, some FSB agents went to Bucharest, to force a penal case on his name. There they had some meetings scheduled by Usatii.

The PDM leader commented the denouncement of Veaceslav Platon, the No.1 raider in CSI on summer of 2016. The politician mentioned that Platon just wanted to make a televised show, based on lies.

"Those things are week and don't touch me at all, moreover, those things mobilize me", said Vlad Plahotniuc.

The PDM President commented that Russian State Duma wants to vote a resolution against anti-propaganda law that came into force at the beginning of February in Moldova.

Vlad Plahotniuc mentioned that he would enjoy if the Russian legislature would first discuss the aggressive campaigns of manipulation promoted by several Moscow television stations. Especially because Moldova is humiliated in lying reports.

 The Balti referendum on the dismissal of Mayor Renato Usatîi, scheduled for March 4th, was left in the shadow.

The PDM leader noted that the Government has intervened in a crisis situation regarding the garbage, but does not intend to handle the city administration.

According to Vlad Plahotniuc, it is a political right of local councilors and a decision that must be respected. The result of these actions must overcome the crisis and the city management.
