Vladimir Plahotniuc is also known as the Founder of Edelweiss Foundation which is involved in implementing various social projects in Moldova.

The Foundation implemented many cultural projects, book donations, music concerts and artistic events,[41][42][43][44][45] supported Moldovan sportsmen,[46][47][48] provided financial support for people in need of medical care,[49][50][51][52] Thus, flood victims of the summer 2010 Prut River overflowing received financial aid and goods,[53][54][55] People in need from all around the country benefited from the same type of assistance and support,[56][57][58] Edelweiss refurbished the dormitory building of the "Gracious Joseph" Orphanage and donated them various gifts.[59][60][61][62]

In 2014, Edelweiss started a national scale social campaign, called "Revive Moldova".[63] The campaign soon reached its goal: to collect 1 million euros for the reconstruction works and modern medical equipment of the Institute of Mother and Child in Chisinau.[64]

Controversy

Most of the controversies regarding Vlad Plahotniuc has been launched by controversial political figures, such as Sergiu Mocanu[65][66] or Andrei Năstase, both of them having strong connections with two convicted Moldovan businessmen – Victor and Viorel Țopa.[67][68]

According to "Antimafia Movement" leader Sergiu Mocanu declaration, Plahotniuc bought this diploma and even a criminal case was opened on this fact, but for unknown reasons was closed.[69]

According to Moldovan newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda, in early 1990s when Plahotniuc held the position of specialist at the "Minor" Center for prevention and rehabilitation of juvenile offenders, he started recruiting young ladies from socially vulnerable families for sex slavery abroad. Many trafficked girls disappeared in Albania, Bosnia, Croatia. But their parents believed that their daughters were working as guides, managers or business women.[69]

In 2004-2007 Plahotniuc was the unofficial business partner with Viorel and Victor Țopa, together with whom he gained control over bank Victoriabank and Prime TV channel.[70]

Vladimir Plahotniuc acted as the Chairman of “Victoriabank”, one of the leading banks in Moldova until January 2011.[2][4]

In the spring of 2008, Plahotniuc was named ″Abramovich of Moldova″, and, after the resignation of Vasile Tarlev from office of Prime Minister, Plahotniuc was close to become Prime Minister of Moldova.[71]

Plahotniuc was worth 300 million dollars as stated in the top of wealthiest people published by Ukrainian business magazine "Delo", in August 2010.[4] Money originated from both "Victoriabank" and "Petrom Moldova" activity, where he acted as Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors.[4][72] Despite the fact that his name is not mentioned in the founding documents, there is a rumor that Vlad Plahotniuc is the owner of the most luxurious hotel in Chişinău - “Nobil”.[4] It was also said that he owns “Codru” hotel and “Asito” Insurance Company, “Drive” Night Club from Moldova.[4]

Moldovan media speculated on Sergiu Mocanu's statements, a controversial businessman and politician,[73][74][75][76] a former counselor with special missions for the ex-President of Moldova, communist Vladimir Voronin, and named Plahotniuc the “shadow cardinal” of the ex-communist president's family.[77] This label was attributed due to an alleged business relationship with the former communist President.[77] Also the media speculated that Plahotniuc supported financially the Communist Party until 2009, and then the Democratic Party since 2010.[77]

At the beginning of 2011, shortly after his election in Parliament, Romanian newspaper "Adevărul" unveiled the fact that Vlad Plahotniuc has Romanian citizenship, being registered under the name of Vlad Ulinici.[78] He explained this fact by "wanting to protect his children against discrimination during their studies in Romania".[79] Later on, he announced that he requested that his name be changed into Plahotniuc in his Romanian documents as well.[80] For the use of the false identity Vlad Plahotniuc faced criminal prosecution in Romania three years after his double-Ulinici Plahotniuc identity was revealed in newspaper "Adevarul" Moldova. As results from the prosecutor's decision to dismiss the criminal case, Vlad Plahotniuc did not face criminal liability in Romania for the use of false identities just because in Republic of Moldova using a false identity is not a crime.[81][82] In 2012, at that time First deputy Speaker of Moldovan parliament, Vlad Plahotniuc was unmasked by the London Hight Court of Justice as the direct beneficiary of the raider attacks on the shareholders of Victoribank, Banca de Economii and ASITO.[83]

Plahotniuc is seen as an oligarch in Moldova,[84][85][86][87][88][89][90][89][90][91][92] and was accused in past that was involved in several crimes. Also, Plahotniuc was accused for traffic of influence over all Moldovan political class.[93][94] He was nicknamed "The puppeteer" (Romanian: Păpușarul).[95][96] In June 2015, former Prime Minister of Moldova, Ion Sturza, stated in a TV talk-show that "[...] Republic of Moldova is a captured state, and it is controlled by Plahotniuc, and things in this country [...]".[97]

In the context of 2015–16 protests in Moldova, Global Business Center, seat of Plahotniuc's firms was picketed by public street protesters.[98][99][100][101][102] In January 2016, after Plahotniuc was nominated by parliamentary majority for the position of prime minister, the proposal was immediately rejected by President Nicolae Timofti, invoking integrity reasons.[103] Two rallies took place in Chișinău, one that supports Vlad Plahotniuc for the position of prime minister and another that opposes the nomination. Next day, protests continued, with tens of thousands of people demonstrating in central Chișinău against Plahotniuc.[104][105][106]
