United States Institute of Peace | Virtual Event

Description: As Moldova moves toward EU accession under the direction of pro-Western President Maia Sandu, the country has been working constantly to root out malign influence, gain energy independence and institute anti-corruption reforms. However, Moldova has been faced with challenges stemming from Russian espionage and disinformation campaigns aimed at destabilizing the country and inciting conflict — including in the breakaway Transnistria region. Join USIP for a discussion on the state of the conflict in Transnistria and efforts to combat Russia’s malign influence, propaganda, and destabilization activities in Moldova. The conversation will also look at Moldova’s broader trajectory as it moves toward EU accession and how the current challenges will shape the country’s future.
