Moldova: Ruling pro-EU party wins election – DW – 09/29/2025
www.dw.com
Moldovans voted in a high-stakes election to decide whether the country moves closer to the European Union or Russia. The defeated pro-Russian party has called for a protest against the results.

  • Moldova had the choice between pro-EU and pro-Russia parties

  • With more than 99.5% of ballots counted, the pro-EU Party of Action and Solidarity has won just over half of the votes, while the pro-Russia Patriotic Bloc came in second with 24.26%

  • President Maia Sandu accused Russia of ‘massive interference’ after casting her ballot

  • Rival Igor Dodon meanwhile claimed interference came from the West

  • Two Russia-friendly parties were disqualified ahead of the vote

    I‘ve come to learn that Lemmy is even more doom and gloom news than other platforms for some reason. This place can leave someone pretty depressed.

      Even in uplifting news the comments will leave you depressed. But good shit does happen around us everyday, important to remember that even though shit is pretty bleak for us lately, at least here in the US.

      Yeah I’ve had to filter by subscribing to a heap of more fun and light comms instead of looking at “all”. Highly recommend.
