@iamdenya_de What exactly is the request? What should Moldovan authorities do? Isn't it up to Belgium to refuse asylum seekers if they are safe in their country?
@WTFWorld01@BornToTweet86@MorningBrew You have positive balance of trade with Moldova and you just imposed a 31% tariff on them. Literally. I mean. Like, in, literally literally.
American entrepreneur in Moldova, @dsmith098, exposes local pro-Russian politician's lobby campaign in Washington DC, gets smear campaigned and threatened for more. Russian money so shy.

Basically Moldova is dealing with a hostage situation. 200k+ kept with no heating in a Russian controlled area, used as electoral campaign topic ahead of decisive Parliamentary elections.

First households in Transnistria report lack of natural gas in their grid. The region was left without supply of free Russian gas. The ”humanitarian catastrophe” designed by Kremlin might be enforced despite reserves of alternative fuel . Tough decisions ahead for the 🇲🇩 gov.
As the fastest shrinking country in the world Moldova could become an interesting showcase of de-growth management. At this moment there is no strategic approach to de-growth. Some schools get closed, some hospitals merged.
There is officially a state of emergency and Chisinau looks surreal, with the Christmas Fair, trolleybuses full of lights and long traffic jams. Looks like the start of a movie. Will it be a romantic comedy? I don't think so. 4/4
Moldova is in a state of pre-emptive crisis. The moment the Russian gas stop arriving in Transnistria, power shortages are possible in all Moldova. How did we get there? 1/4
Since it's technically the last year Russia can create a energy crisis in Moldova, the Damocles spade has no reason to be left hanging. Starting with January, Moldova is expected to have higher electricity prices, shortages and other unexpected events. 3/4
AI combined with reel feeds have a huge impact on human behaviour and decision making. It is a social operating system update that puts democracy in a position to improve its protocols.
Romanian election shenanigans had an unexpected impact on Moldova: the EU saw that the .md referendum demonstrated the strength of Moldovan institutions, not their weakness.
