  • Several thousand protesters denouncing Moldova’s pro-Western leaders marched through ex-Soviet state’s capital for the sixth consecutive Sunday (23 October) and set up a new tent camp days after police cleared a similar encampment.
  • Demonstrators converged on Chisinau’s central square in four columns but police kept them well away from the parliament and the president’s residence.
  • Activists set up an encampment of several dozen tents by the prosecutor’s office, five days after police removed without incident a much larger camp outside parliament.
