URGENT ACTION ALERT!
Tuesday . April 7, 2009
Afternoon Update! Breaking News!
Thanks to everyone who has written today to the Eastern European government of Moldova urging restraint during the public protests in the aftermath of yesterday's elections, and to all who have offered prayers for peace and justice in Moldova.
The situation has just taken another dangerous turn. The police and the army have now entered the square where peaceful demonstrations were taking place and have opened fire.
MCC’s Rev. Elder Diane Fisher is in regular communication with the Moldovan demonstrators. She reports that the police and army have opened fire on the protestors, which include many members of the LGBT community. Ambulances are on the scene. Protestors are being placed under arrest by the police and the military.
Please, please take the following urgent steps:
1. If you have not yet written to the Moldovan government, locate e-mail addresses below and write to them immediately. Demand that they allow peaceable freedom of assembly and freedom of speech for their citizens, and that the government show restraint in this situation. Remind them that the eyes of the world are focused on Moldova right now. If you have already written, please write again. It is urgent that the government of Moldova hear from tens of thousands of people who will speak out for peace and justice.
2. Continue to pray for the citizens of Moldova. Pray for the safety of the demonstrators who are taking a courageous stand for justice. Pray for restraint on the part of the police and army. Pray for peace.
3. Forward this Action Alert to as many people as possible as soon as possible.
Below you will find additional details and contact information.
Your voice is needed -- right now! -- to speak up and speak out for peace for our brothers and sisters in Moldova.

FULL TEXT OF EARLIER ACTION ALERT with e-mail contacts:
Dear Friend:
I am urgently asking for your help.
Members of our faith community in Moldova are involved in a public action in response to yesterday’s Moldovan elections. The Communist Party was re-elected to its third term in office. Moldova has the only Communist Party parliament in Europe.
Reports and concerns have been raised about the validity of the election. Community members have taken to the streets in Moldova and the government is retaliating with violence against the demonstrators.
I have been in touch with Florin Buhuceanu, Eastern European Coordinator, and members of our community.
The violence is escalating – we have just received on-site reports of gunshots and explosions. The parliament is on fire with protestors inside The government has called in the army.
We have been asked to pray for the Moldovan government not to use violence as a way to resolve this protest.
We have been asked to contact our embassies to urge the Moldovan government to use peaceful means to handle this situation.
More information is available in this morning’s Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/04/07/AR2009040700948.html
The links to Embassies and Consulates are listed below. Please contact the embassy. Tell them to protect the safety of their citizens. Tell them the world is watching.
