7:06Now PlayingAdmiral Michael Mullen, 17th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, talks about rising global geopolitical tensions.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy called on the world leaders to support Moldova in the face of Russia’s alleged attempts to influence its parliamentary election on Sunday.
“Georgia is dependent on Russia, and for many many years Belarus has been moving toward dependence on Russia,” Zelenskiy said in a speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Wednesday. “Europe cannot afford to lose Moldova too.”
The small country, sandwiched between war-torn Ukraine and the European Union and NATO member state Romania, is a key battleground between pro-European and pro-Russian political forces. The Sept. 28 election comes less than a year after a referendum on whether Moldova should pursue EU membership passed by a wafer-thin margin amid claims by the government of Kremlin interference.
Bloomberg reported this week that Russia has devised a plan to intervene in elections in Moldova and disrupt the government’s efforts to keep the country on the path toward European Union membership.
The multi-pronged strategy was finalized in spring and coordinated directly by the Kremlin. The goal is to undermine the chances of President Maia Sandu’s Party of Action and Solidarity in the Sept. 28 vote and ultimately see her removed from power, the documents citing the internal Russian plans suggest.
