Moldova's pro-European President Maia Sandu nominated businessman Vasile Tofan on Saturday as the country’s next prime minister to replace Alexandru Munteanu, who resigned earlier this month over differences with the ruling majority.
In a video posted to social media, Sandu said Tofan's primary responsibility, after his candidacy is approved by the country’s parliament, would be to move the country further towards its path of "integration" into the European Union.
