Moscow plans to force a change of the political power in the R. of Moldova in the forthcoming period, through violent actions designed to destabilise the country, Moldova’s president Maia Sandu said. According to her, Russia allegedly intends to use diversions, attacks on institutions and hostage taking. The plan was uncovered with the help of intelligence received from Kyiv, among others, Maia Sandu added. ‘The goal of these actions is to upset constitutional order, to replace the legitimate power in Chişinău with an illegitimate one, which will leave our country into the hands of Russia, to stop the European accession process and to ensure that Moldova can be used by Russia in the war against Ukraine,’ Maia Sandu said. Last Thursday in Brussels the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke to EU leaders about such a plan put together by Russia.
