The Moldovan Prime Minister spoke to a Ukrainian TV channel in English
The new Prime Minister of Moldova, Maia Sandu, gave an interview to the Ukrainian TV channel “Hromadske Telebachennya”, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The conversation was in English, although Sandu is fluent in Russian. Sometimes it seemed that she was not answering the journalist’s questions quite accurately.
For example, she asked the Moldovan Prime Minister a question about the possible return of oligarch Vlad Plahotniuc to the country, and Sado began to refute the information that she allegedly met with city mayors.
In general, the interview was devoted to the European orientation of the new government, which is going to create an anti-corruption bureau “from scratch” following the example of Ukraine. Sandu called her ACUM bloc’s relationship with the Socialist Party “not an alliance, but a partnership,” and expressed hope that in the future this supposedly pro-Russian party will also advocate joining the European Union.
Sandu called Transnistria a big issue.
“We know that the regime in Tiraspol survived through corruption schemes and smuggling. We hope that the authorities in Kyiv will help us overcome these schemes. In the past, people from Chisinau and Ukraine took part in them,” Sandu said.
