Moldova, a small country between Romania and Ukraine, faces Russian pressure. Russia is using tactics like election manipulation to influence Moldova's government. A recent visit from European leaders, including Macron, Merz, and Tusk, aims to support Moldova's EU membership and counter Russian influence. Moldova's last election was very close, with support from Moldovans living abroad crucial for the pro-EU government. There are concerns about Russian disinformation targeting Moldovan voters abroad.
