22 November 2007 UTC You are not preserving the intent of the decree It talks both about the threat which a the restriction of civil rights more proper term per you of non Moldovans and b the movement for autonomy both taken together pose for political stability and personal safety of the citizens of the republic It goes on to specifically mention the language law as something which should be reexamined These are all key points which your edit ignores and frankly is less informative an account than it should be Your over simplifiation puts the blame squarely and solely on the Moldovans oppressing minorities and states Gorbachov declared the declaration of autonomy illegal just to save Moldova I m sorry now that you want to provide more detail based on the content of the declaration I do not believe your now simplification is adequate I would request several other Russian knowledgeable editors to read the decree or better to find a reputable English language source discussing its content 23 03
