Addendum
In recent years, Moldova, as Politico notes, has undergone a rapid turn to the West, with the war in Ukraine raging just across its border. Officials have warned that Russian intelligence has been actively trying to disrupt the referendum on EU membership, as well as the simultaneous elections in which President Maia Sandu is running for a second term.
