According to the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Moldova, Mihai Popșoi, right now, the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and his henchmen are doing everything possible to overthrow the Moldovan government and prevent the country from joining the EU.
Putin is increasing pressure and influence on Moldova
According to the Moldovan diplomat, Putin's regime is constantly learning and adapting to the events taking place in different countries of the world.
They are trying to use the democratic process against us... to overthrow the democratic government in Moldova, Mihai Popșoi said.
He also stressed that his country's authorities know that Putin intends to invest "a lot of energy and financial resources" through his puppets to get his way.
The Kremlin will also try to bribe Moldovan citizens.

What is happening in Transnistria
As Mihai Popșoi notes, the situation with Transnistria remains tense.
Official Chisinau is also concerned that speculation about the region could negatively affect investment in the country.
Despite this, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Moldova confirmed his country's progress in ensuring energy security. As of today, it is "completely independent or has an alternative and can choose where to buy gas and electricity."
The Moldovan diplomat does not deny the fact that a significant number of Moldovans still live under the influence of Russian propaganda, which "made NATO a horror film."
But this does not prevent us from cooperating with our NATO partners and strengthening the stability of our armed forces, — concluded the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Moldova.
