FfFfFfFF 58,083 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 After the European Commission pledged for Moldova to get official EU candidate status, Lavrov responded saying the West is trying to turn Moldova into a ''second Ukraine''. The Russian Foreign Minister also accused Moldova of using its EU ascension as a tool to blackmail Russia to make concessions, such as selling cheaper gas or staying in the CIS (the Russian equivalent of EU). Besides this, he said that unlike Georgia, Moldova seeks a reunification with ''the Motherland'' (ie Romania). Moldova's president, Maia Sandu replied to Lavrov warmongering and misleading accusions and said: ''I see no connection between gas supplies and our intention to obtain candidate status. We have been talking here about the fact that we have wanted this for a long time, we have been announcing this for many years, we have made some commitments to apply for membership of the European Union.''
