🇲🇩 russia recruited 130,000 Moldovan citizens to disrupt the EU accession referendum.
Approximately 5% of the country's population participates in the scheme. Only in September, russia transferred $15 million to their accounts so that they would vote against Moldova's accession to the EU and disrupt the referendum.
Funds are transferred to the cards of a bank affiliated with the Ministry of Defense of the russian federation. And instructions on how to vote and spread false information about the EU are distributed on Telegram.
▪️ Already on October 20, the country will hold presidential elections and a referendum on joining the EU. Both votes are important for Moldova, because russia is trying to bring the country back into its sphere of influence.
