In an electrifying vote, Moldova has narrowly decided to pursue EU membership, leaving Russia reeling! Dive into the fascinating results and implications of this pivotal referendum!
In a nail-biting election held on October 20, 2024, Moldova has cast its votes for EU membership, scraping by with a razor-thin margin. The outcome came as a resounding 'yes,' with a squeaky win of just over 13,000 votes amidst fierce pressure from both pro-European and pro-Russian factions. President Maia Sandu, who campaigned vigorously for closer ties with the European Union, describes the referendum as a significant step towards future stability and development, prevailing over what she claimed were attempts to interfere by pro-Russian forces. This win is viewed as a victory for democratic values in the country, despite accusations of an unfair campaign environment.
