Hogan: US United States prepared to undertake also other measures of sanctioning corrupt Moldovans

U.S. Ambassador to Moldova Derek J. Hogan today issued a public statement, which reads that the United States is prepared to undertake also other measures to sanction the corrupt people of Moldova.

At the same time, the American official noted that he encouraged the Moldovan cabinet’s promise to reform the justice and fight the high-level corruption.

Ambassador Hogan said that the institutions of combating corruption had made progress in the key criminal investigations and urged the leaders of Moldova “to protect the independence of the institutions of fighting corruption, to empower reformers within these institutions and protect them from interferences from outside.”   

On 13 January 2020, a press release by the U.S. Department of State informed that the former leader of the Moldovan Democratic Party (PDM), Vladimir Plahotniuc, and his family were not eligible to get entry visa for the United States.
