The National Anti-Corruption Center has detained the head of the Giurgiulești post and five inspectors following 24 searches at the port. Prosecutors describe a systematic scheme involving bribes between €20,000 and €30,000.
Airspace security remains a brief affair: a drone spent eight minutes over national territory overnight before disappearing. It is the latest in a series of violations that have become a standard, if unwelcome, feature of the Ministry of Defense's morning briefings.
The government is reshuffling its diplomatic corps, recalling four ambassadors while eyeing a potential €500 million windfall from the Growth Plan by year-end. In the capital, officials celebrated 590 years since the first mention of Chișinău, though the focus in the cabinet is on the future of energy: the Prime Minister has suggested gas negotiations with Ukraine are now on the table.
