Moldova Votes ‘Oui’ to EU, Finds Door Still Only Slightly Ajar (and Russia is Still Tapping on the Window)

Good news, Moldova! Your citizens have decisively voted for the pro-European party of President Maia Sandu, confirming your unwavering desire to ditch the past and embrace the glorious future of bureaucracy and shared agricultural policies. ? The Action and Solidarity party snagged a whopping 50.03% of the vote, sending a clear message: ‘We want in!’

However, much like trying to get into an exclusive club with a strict dress code, the EU membership talks are still… shall we say, stalled. ? Despite the celebratory mood, it seems there are still a few ‘obstacles’ remaining. And just to keep things interesting, Russia’s campaign to amplify societal distrust continues, like a persistent ex trying to spoil the party. Oh, Russia! Always so subtle. ?

This former Soviet republic of 2.4 million people proved its dedication, overcoming widespread reports of meddling (because what’s an election without a little international intrigue?) and a series of ‘shocks’ that would have sent lesser governments packing. So, while Moldova clearly said ‘Da‘ to Europe, Europe seems to be saying ‘Maybe later, darling, we’ll call you.
