Political activity edit
Valeriu Boboc Prize edit
The initiative regarding founding Valeriu Boboc Prize for the liberty of press and defending of democratic values was launched on April 19, 2010, by Mihaela Popa. She said in front of the Senate that "April 7 events opened the way of Moldova to Europe and Boboc is no longer just a name, but a symbol of struggle for democratic values and freedom of expression."[1] On April 23, the newspaper of a former ally of Communists Iurie Roşca, Flux, had a very hostile reaction to the initiative.[2] The memorandum regarding founding the Prize "Valeriu Boboc" for the liberty of the press and for the defense of democratic values was adopted on April 30, 2010, by the permanent bureau of the Senate of Romania.[3]
