Moldova's intelligence chief reveals Russia's plans to destabilize internal situation

Russia has prepared plans to destabilize the situation in Moldova. In particular, it wants to influence the presidential elections. This was stated by the head of the Information and Security Service of Moldova, Alexandru Musteata, in a statement to Reuters.


According to him, in 2023, the Information and Security Service intercepted a record level of activity of Russian special services and expects new destabilizing actions this year and next.


Musteata clarified that Russian special services want to interfere in the election process.


"We have information that attempts are being made to disrupt the referendum on European integration, interfere in the presidential elections, and discredit government institutions and politicians who support Moldova's accession to the European Union," the intelligence chief said.
