Igor Grosu, leader of Moldova's ruling Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS), emphasizes the significance of the upcoming elections, stating they will shape the country's future for years. With the risk of losing their parliamentary majority, Grosu frames the vote as a choice between peace (EU) and war (Russia). Allegations of Russian interference and a crackdown on opposition parties have intensified. The election is seen as critical for Moldova's EU aspirations, with the PAS pledging to sign an accession treaty by 2028. The opposition, particularly the Russia-friendly Patriotic Electoral Bloc, aims to normalize ties with Russia. Recent legal actions against opposition parties raise concerns about political fairness.
