20/04/2021 | 14:24:30 Dear Mr President, I am not against. Just for future reference, we need to clarify what Islamophobia means. We know what Nazism is, we know what anti-Semitism is, and neo-fascism, but I think sometimes we mix Islamophobia with "terrorism-phobia", because I'm sure that in Russia, in Armenia, in many countries, there is not something which is against the religion of Islam, but sometimes we need to fight with you, there must not be equality between Islam-Islam and terrorism-fundamentalism things... 19/04/2021 | 16:30:35 Does it work now? Your Excellency, Madam President, welcome to the cradle of democracy and human rights. As you see, we are, of course, following the processes in Moldova and in Transnistria, the dialogue called 5+2.
