The Moldovan government says that Russia is violating the law by printing ballots in the Transnistrian region ahead of its presidential "elections.

The Moldovan government has said that Russia is violating the law by printing ballots in the Transnistrian region ahead of its presidential "elections." This was stated by Moldovan Deputy Prime Minister Oleg Serebryan, according to Euractiv, UNN reports .

These ballots were most likely printed right there (in Transnistria - ed.) to avoid transporting them through the border crossing,

- Serebryan said.

According to him, Moldova's borders are controlled and there is no way to legally import or export ballots.

It is difficult to say how they would have been transported across the border. Moldova's borders are controlled, and there is no way to legally import or export them,

He said.

Serebryan emphasized that the printing of ballots in Transnistria was intended to show Moldova that the region does not respect national laws.

Recall

Russia is trying to use the unrecognized regions of Transnistria and Gagauzia to conduct hybrid operations and destabilize Moldova on the eve of EU accession talks and presidential elections.
