Moldovans are heading to the polls to cast their ballots in what many consider a crucial parliamentary election with high stakes and a central question – will the country choose to integrate with the European Union or drift back into Moscow’s fold?
Sunday’s pivotal vote will elect a new 101-seat parliament, after which Moldova’s president nominates a prime minister, generally from the leading party or bloc, which can then try to form a new government. A proposed government then needs parliamentary approval.
