Moldovan President Igor Dodon wants to cancel the contract signed by the Government with Frontera Resources Corporation, who wants to start research work to find oil and gas in Moldova.

In a Facebook post, the president announced that he proposed a bill prohibiting exploitation in the country.

According to the legislative initiative, investors will need the consent of the local public administration, professional organizations and individuals that own land on which they will work.

However, public debates with environmentalists and civil society representatives will be organized on issues.
