Summary/Abstract: It is a common point to claim that the Republic of Moldova is vulnerable, and that it is generally an ‘unsafe and instable place’, jeopardized by multifarious and strenuous security risks. On the other hand, anybody who visits Chisinau, not mentioning smaller cities or the rural area, has the feeling of “stopped time”, of a space where nothing happens. Which is the real dimension of security risks and which are the insecurity challenges in the republic of Moldova today? I tried to briefly present the real situation of the security threats and to find out which might be the options of solving these problem in the nearest future and on medium term.
