Member of Parliament Botgros explains why Lăutarii got free land for a residential block instead of a folklore center
He was given a free plot of land in Chisinau by the government with the intention of building the International Folklore Center "Lăutarii." However, instead of the center, a block of 20 apartments was constructed. Nicolae Botgros, a deputy from the Action and Solidarity Party (PAS), claims that the folklore center project was never realized because potential sponsors repeatedly refused to finance it. As a result, he was compelled to sell everything to settle the debts that had accumulated, according to the parliamentarian.
