Moldova’s upcoming presidential election and EU referendum represent a turning point in the region’s geopolitical landscape. At stake is the nation’s strategic realignment towards the European Union, a move spearheaded by President Maia Sandu amidst rising tensions with Russia.
With eyes cast towards the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, Sandu is pushing for a second term while campaigning for a constitutional affirmation of EU accession goals. Accusations of Russian interference loom large, as Moldovan authorities claim significant financial efforts have been deployed to sway the vote against Sandu.
The Kremlin denies meddling, claiming instead that many Moldovans wish to maintain ties with Russia. The electoral outcome holds significant implications for Moldova’s parliamentary future and its quest for EU integration.
