Protest in front of the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Chisinau

Protest in front of the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Chisinau. While several people took to the streets in protest of the arrest of Russian opponent Aleksei Navalny, others demanded his conviction. Representatives of the diplomatic mission did not comment on the protests, Mesager reports.

"What is happening in Russia now is the violation of human rights, and we have come to support those rights and to show solidarity with the citizens of the Russian Federation." "I know very well what it is like when you can't defend your rights or when the law works against citizens", say some protesters say.

Another group of people protested against the actions of the Russian opponent.

"We have come to support the legal structures in the Russian Federation that are fighting for the country's freedom." "We do not agree with the actions of Navalny, who, through protests, is trying to commit an attempted coup d’etat",  others say.

The protests were monitored by law enforcement officers who ensured public order.
