Pro-EU election victory in Moldova ‘doesn’t reflect the will of the people’ – ex-MP

Opposition politician Marina Tauber alleged massive fraud during the campaign.

The victory of Moldova’s ruling pro-EU party in the parliamentary election does not reflect the will of the people, former legislator Marina Tauber told RT.

According to the official tally, President Maia Sandu’s Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS) received 50.2% of the vote on Monday, while the opposition alleged fraud and manipulation.

“It was the dirtiest campaign in the history of Moldova. There are no words to describe what has happened,” Tauber said on Monday evening. She claimed the result was “not real” and “not the will of the people.”

Former Moldovan President Igor Dodon, who leads the main opposition alliance, the Patriotic Bloc, accused Sandu’s government of “falsifying” the election. In a Facebook post, he cited “hundreds of violations” of the law and said authorities blocked roads and bridges to prevent residents of Moldova’s breakaway region of Transnistria from casting ballots.

Speaking to RT, Tauber criticized Chisinau for opening just two polling stations in Moscow, despite the large Moldovan diaspora in Russia. “It is not normal. Everybody has the right to vote and should have the technical possibility to do it,” she said.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Monday that there were “widespread violations and falsification” during the vote, alleging a crackdown on the opposition in Moldova.

In 2023, Moldova’s top court banned the Sor Party, led by businessman Ilan Sor. In the run-up to Monday’s election, authorities barred three more opposition groups – the Victory Bloc, Greater Moldova, and Heart of Moldova – from participating.

  1. Ah yes, the classic EU style “democracy”.

    Hope the people enjoy their coming economic collapse, catastrophic migration, crime and digital ID.

  2. Yep next time the slimy EU accuses someone else of election interference people need only respond with one word “Moldova.”
