The Government released over 1,500 archival files of the Communist Party (CP) of the Soviet Union, as well as logs from meetings of the CP's Central Committee. Information from 1974-1984 is now available.
Authorities plan to release every pre-1991 file that is available.
Many of these documents were previously in restricted-access locations, but are now being made available to a commission that is investigating the crimes of Communism in the country. This commission will eventually write a report that will most likely condemn communism in Moldova.
Aside from clarifying Moldova's Soviet past, this move by the new Government could also be a political blow to the current Party of Communists, which claims some legacy with the Soviet-era version but stresses it is a different political group.
