Editorial
29 September 2025
The Moldovans have overwhelmingly confirmed their wish for a European future, despite Russia's interference and destabilising manoeuvres. The vote on 28 September is a clear rejection of Moscow's influence. Transnistria remains a point of tension, but the motivations for secession appear doomed to failure. This election serves as a reminder that Europe continues to embody hope and sends a strong message to both the Kremlin and Western democracies.

Its military budget is growing rapidly and principles such as European preference are emerging. As mistrust of the United States grows, Europe is asserting its sovereignty more strongly. It remains a beacon of democracy and the rule of law, capable of adapting to the challenges of today's world.
