State Duma Deputy Vitaly Milonov believes that Moldova is now reminiscent of Ukraine during the “Orange Revolution” or the so-called first Maidan. INSIDE comments Nezygar noted on his Telegram channel that Western states are trying to turn the country against Russia.
“Modern Moldova is the Ukraine of the first Maidan: Western elites and Western puppeteers are trying to impose artificial hatred of Russia on the people of this republic, fueling hysteria and using manipulation technologies. Fortunately, fraternal ties with the Russian people are still strong among the Moldovan people, and all these evil tricks really do not work,” explained Milonov.
In 2020, Maia Sandu, the leader of the conditionally pro-Western Action and Solidarity party, became the president of Moldova. A year later, the political power managed to win a majority in parliament after early elections and intensified its course of rapprochement with the European Union and the USA. In 2022, Moldova, along with Ukraine, received candidate status for EU membership. During the Ukrainian conflict in Chisinau, they began to talk about the “Russian threat” and reduce ties with the CIS. In particular, in May 2023, Sandu accused Russia of trying to “overthrow” the Moldovan authorities. At the same time, the opposition, including the Socialist Party of former President Igor Dodon, believes that the state leadership is acting on orders from “Western curators”.
