I first watched the Eurovision Song Contest when I was 11 years old. It was the year Moldova participated for the first time, and Zdob si Zdub's “Grandma” managed to secure 6th place. Since then, I have become one of the competition’s biggest fans. Today, Eurovision continues to be the most exciting European event of the year for hundreds of millions who tune in to watch the show in May, uniting people on the European continent and beyond through music. However, Eurovision left a bitter taste for me and my friends this year, tarnishing what should have been a joyous occasion. Amidst the mishap...

Officials in Moldova's breakaway region of Transnistria appealed to Moscow for protection on Wednesday, as tensions escalate with the country's pro-Western government. On Wednesday, members of the Transnistrian congress used a rare meeting in the regional capital, Tiraspol, to ask the Russian Duma to "implement measures for defending Transnistria amid increasing pressure from Moldova, given the fact that more than 220,000 Russian citizens reside in Transnistria." The dispute began at the start of the year when Moldova, officially a candidate to join the EU, imposed new customs duties on 1 Janu...

Moldova’s president, Maia Sandu, was the target of an attack campaign last September: a seemingly coordinated effort by US celebrities on Cameo, an online video platform, calling for her to be brought down. The catch: the celebrities, including Dolph Lundgren, Lindsay Lohan, Brian Baumgartner, were manipulated into leveling the geopolitical attacks. That’s the conclusion of a new report by the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab), a think tank that studies misinformation and the future of digital rights. Cameo is a platform that lets users pay celebrities and television st...
