MOLDOVA

The Biden administration will provide $300 million to the Republic of Moldova in energy assistance and share intelligence with this country, which Russia is trying to destabilize, the White House has announced. National security spokesman John Kirby told the media that, although it has not noticed any immediate threat to the Republic of Moldova, the USA believes Russia is trying to weaken this small country, to orchestrate an insurrection and install a pro-Moscow government. Washington trusts democratic and economic institutions in Chișinău and their capacity to respond to these threats, the US official went on to say. „We will continue to provide assistance to this country”, John Kirby added. Protests against the Moldovan government and president, organized by the pro-Russian Shor Party, have been held repeatedly in the Moldovan capital in the last months.
