The pro-Western president of Moldova, Maia Sandu, won re-election on Sunday in a high-stakes runoff vote in the former Soviet republic against a rival candidate she had denounced as “Moscow’s man.”
The vote — held a week after a contested election in Georgia, another former Soviet territory, handed victory to the Moscow-leaning governing party — has been closely watched by the United States, the European Union and Russia as a critical test of Moldova’s direction.
Why is it “pro-western” instead of “pro-democracy”?
Because it’s western europe vs eastern europe
Yeah, but those Eastern European countries aren’t physically moving westward. They’re just trying to institute democracy.
It’s not moving country it’s political alignment, it’s a battle between pro western europe(EU) party vs pro eastern europe(russia) party, democracy is how they fight.
No, Moldova wants to install legs. Or at least treads.
How long till she suffers an “unfortunate accident?”
