What's going on in Moldova? (1 Viewer)

[CarterYang]

In Moldova, there’s a lot going on that we should be paying attention to. President Maia Sandu is pushing to abolish direct elections for regional leaders, particularly in Gagauzia, raising concerns about political control and democratic processes. The recent detention of Bashkan, the head of Gagauzia, Eugenia Gutsul seems to be part of a strategy to silence opposition voices.

Are these moves being backed by foreign powers? Some suggest that the UK, through its intelligence services and NGOs, is shaping a "friendly" political landscape in Moldova, steering it towards managed democracy and centralized control.

What do you think? What else is happening in Eastern Europe that’s worth keeping an eye on?

Of course, it's all Globalists, George Soros, corporate interests, foreign players, the WEF, woke progressives and Liberals behind this move to "shape" the political landscape in their favor.

From the OP: "Some suggest that the UK, through its intelligence services and NGOs, is shaping a "friendly" political landscape in Moldova, steering it towards managed democracy and centralized control."

Please provide copies and pastes of the "suggestions" re the UK interference in Moldova. Be sure to include the links to the sources.

Thanks.

My opinion is that you should provide more evidence to support your claims about UK interference.

...Moldova - a landlocked country bordering Ukraine and Romania - emerged as an independent republic following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

It is one of Europe's poorest countries, with its economy relying heavily on agriculture. Two-thirds of Moldovans are of Romanian descent, and the two countries share a common cultural heritage.

The industrialised territory to the east of the Dniester, generally known as Transnistria or the Dniester region, was formally an autonomous area within Ukraine before 1940, when the Soviet Union combined it with Bessarabia to form the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic.

This area is mainly inhabited by Russian and Ukrainian speakers. As people there became concerned at the prospect of closer ties with Romania in final years of the Soviet Union, Transnistria unilaterally declared independence in 1990.

Since Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Moldova's pro-Western and pro-Russian factions have become increasingly divided.

In 2023-24 the US and then the EU sanctioned several pro-Russian politicians for collusion with Russia amid attempts to destabilise Moldova.

In 2024, voters narrowly backed proposed changes to its constitution and a commitment to joining the EU and also re-elected President Maia Sandu in a tense election seen as a choice between Europe and Russia....

Moldova has expressed its intentions to join the EU for a decade already, and projects that its own EU qualifications will be met by 2030. Maybe yes - maybe no - but at least we know where their sentiments lie.
