Maia Sandu's re-election as Moldova's pro-Western president signifies a resistance to Russian influence in a critical geopolitical region, marking a pivotal moment in Moldova's democratic journey.
In her victory speech, Sandu highlighted the role of Moldovans abroad in her win, declaring, 'Today you saved Moldova... In our choice for a dignified future, no one lost.'
Sandu condemned attempts from outside forces to manipulate the election, stating that her victory was against 'hostile forces' and an unprecedented attack marked by 'dirty money and illegal vote buying.'
European leaders reacted positively to Sandu's victory, with Poland's Prime Minister describing it as a triumph against Russia's pervasive interference, hoping for continued democratic progress across the region.
