But President Maia Sandu’s government was able to claim victory by falsifying the overseas vote and by stopping Moldovan citizens in Transnistria and former Soviet states from voting. The vote counting process was also plagued by suspicious incidents like several power and internet cuts. Tarlev said the opposition will present evidence of voter fraud in court and demand either a vote recount or a repeat election. He also expressed his fears that if Sandu and her cohorts remain in power, they risk destroying the Moldovan economy and even dragging the country “into certain military conflicts.”

“As far as we know, the people of Moldova are not satisfied with this result and I don’t think that anything good will come out of it,” Tarlev said.
He also expressed his fears that if Sandu and her cohorts remain in power, they risk destroying the Moldovan economy and even dragging the country “into certain military conflicts.”
