Valeriu Mițul (9 March 1961 – 2 October 2021[1]) was a Moldovan politician, an opponent of the separatist regime that is in power in Transnistria.
Political activity
Mițul was a participant in the 1992 War of Transnistria on behalf of Moldovan governmental forces. He was the mayor of Corjova village, considered by separatist authorities as a suburb of Dubăsari.
As a result of his opposition to authorities from Tiraspol, he was arrested several times by Transnistrian police, most recently on 13 May 2007.[2]
Mițul was elected mayor of Corjova in the Moldovan local election, 2003, as a candidate representing the ASLMN party.
During the Moldovan municipal elections on 3 June 2007, the Transnistrian authorities prevented the inhabitants of Corjova from participating in the elections. Mițul, who was up for re-election, received death threats.[3][4]
