00:00Let's go back now to political consultant and human rights defender, Arnold Devillay.

00:05Stay with me. Arnold, I'm glad to have you stay with me.

00:08Thank you for your patience.

00:09Now, the footage shows how the Holy Fire steam made it to Kisinau,

00:14despite the authorities preventing the Archbishop from going to collect it.

00:18So, the question now is, what was that incident all about?

00:22Well, that incident was all about trying to provoke people of Russian culture at large,

00:34including Orthodox people, people of the Orthodox faith.

00:39It attempts also to create division within Moldova.

00:43We've seen already going back to the election cycle in that country,

00:48how the local authorities essentially had made it quasi-impossible

00:54for the nearly 500,000, 400,000 Moldovans living in Russia

00:59to exercise their right to vote there,

01:03with, I guess, the assumption that they would not be voting for the right candidate,

01:09what can assume.

01:11But, yes, Moldova also has illustrated itself

01:15in arresting members of the opposition

01:19simply for having traveled to Moscow,

01:22including the regional governor of Gagosia.

01:27So, this is a fault line, to be sure,

01:30Moldova is a place that we should,

01:32we would be wise to keep a close look on what's going to happen there.

01:37The current head of state, Maya Sandu,

01:41is pretty much a narrow-selected construct type of candidate,

01:48and she's been, you know, more than enthusiastic about

01:54putting forward some provocative policies like this.

01:58What this reminds me also is this kind of artificial split

02:05on religious fault lines that we've seen in Ukraine.

02:09We know that Western intelligence agencies have promoted a schism

02:13within orthodoxy in Ukraine going back to 2018,

02:19to be sure, specifically, but more, you know, going back further than that, even.

02:25And we know that those methods are definitely used to pry open

02:29and to divide societies

02:31to basically make it easy, then, for external control to take place.

02:37So, again, this is just one of the latest expression

02:41of this Russo-phobia, Slavo-phobia, Orthodox-so-phobia,

02:45and I'm not that surprised in and of itself.

02:50Now, Moldova's Ministry of Justice has now come out to say

02:54that he recognises Easter as constitutional,

02:58declaring the holiday as healthy,

03:00and that Easter and Easter cakes comply with EU laws.

03:05What do you make of those words?

03:06Well, as a Jewish, it just makes no sense.

03:12I mean, how can you compare secular law with religious belief?

03:19Religious belief in and of itself is incorporated into a fundamental right

03:24in any country that has a somewhat viable constitution

03:27to worship, you know, according to one's own beliefs.

03:33So I don't understand how this is actually constitutional.

03:36How it requires the Minister of Justice

03:40to make a determination as to whether or not this is constitutional

03:43when those types of rights are enshrined in any constitution

03:49in any modern country.

03:52So it's almost like he's reinventing the wheel,

03:57but in so doing, somehow this belies how they have maybe gone a step too far

04:05and tried to fix it, and it fails miserably, if you ask me.

04:11All right.

04:11We have to leave you here now.

04:13Arno Devile, political consultant and human rights defender,

04:16thank you so much for your time today.

04:19All right.
