Gagaus Autonomy Yuggenya Gutul called on UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterresh to pay attention to the situation around the region.
"I call on you as the Chief of Human Rights at the International Human Rights, followed by everything that is happening in Gagausia, please not stay indifferent to our situation, but to stand out to our people.
Your support will be an important signal to the world that the right to self-government and democratic principles are protected, and that the UN is ready to intervene where these fundamental values are in danger, "said Guterreshi, which was published in Telegram.
The head of Gagauzia added that he is "in one of the most terrible prisons in Europe", and that the criminal case against him is "not only on an attack on a specific politician, but to deprive Gagauzia-elected leadership."
He noted that "Moldovan authorities operate unpunished, confident that their steps will not meet in the international arena of resistance."
