A statue of Stefan cel Mare, installed at the initiative of President Igor Dodon, in the village of Capriana, scandalized the officials of the Agency for Inspection and Restoration of Monuments. They say raising the sculpture is illegal.
"First of all, the procedure for endorsement of this concept must be respected and any concept must be coordinated with the Ministry of Education, Culture and Research." This monument can not be inaugurated until the legal procedure will be done", said Ion Stefanita, director of the Inspection Agency of Monuments.
Asked about this situation, Dodon's counselor Maxim Lebedinschi said he does not know what monument is. According to the mayor, soon next to this sculpture would be installed two more statues.
"For the first time I'm hearing about illegality. The project costs about 900,000 lei, totally with all three statues, until it is over." We at the local budget, where can we get such financial sources? If I said it was a donation, it means I do not get involved as much money is spent. If Mr. Dodon thought he had to write, it means he wrote it", said Ion Scutaru, Mayor of Capriana.
There are almost six thousand state-protected monuments in the country.
