Russia and its supporters will try to organize a rebellion in Moldova if a pro-Russian candidate does not win the presidential elections.

This is stated in a joint statement by the governments of the United States, Canada and Great Britain.

While defending our shared democratic values, we warn our democratic partners and allies that Russian actors represent a scenario for influencing the results of the presidential elections in Moldova in the fall. They intend to spark protests in Moldova if the pro-Russian candidate does not win, the document states.

It is noted that Russia is trying to form among the population of Moldova a negative attitude towards the governments of Western countries, the country's authorities and its ability to join the EU. In parallel, the Russian Federation is trying to destroy the population’s faith in Moldova’s ability to maintain its security and the rule of law.

We have full confidence in Moldova's ability to deal with these threats posed by Kremlin interference. We are taking a number of measures to support these efforts as part of our partnership with Moldova and its people,” the statement noted.

Canada, the US and the UK have worked together to share information about Russia's intentions with partners in Moldova so that they can further investigate and thwart and thwart the Kremlin's plans.

We will continue to work closely with the Government of Moldova on this matter,” the document states.
