The European Parliament will vote next week on a resolution assessing the challenges facing the Republic of Moldova
The European Parliament will vote on 19 April on a resolution assessing the challenges facing the Republic of Moldova, according to a press release from the institution. The resolution is the result of a plenary debate on the same subject held in March.
The decision was taken after President Maia Sandu warned earlier this year that Russia wants to stage a coup in Moldova, including through sabotage and increased civil unrest, to halt the country's EU integration process.
The statement said that the Republic of Moldova, as one of the poorest countries in Europe, has suffered from political and economic upheavals due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, including street protests organised with the aim of destabilising the country's political situation.
The Republic of Moldova was granted EU candidate country status with Ukraine in June 2022.
