“Public perception in Romania reflects a strong and consistent support for the Republic of Moldova’s pro-European direction,” said Remus Stefureac, Director of INSCOP Research, emphasizing that in no demographic group do negative opinions outweigh positive ones.
The survey took place between October 6–10 on a sample of 1,100 respondents through telephone interviews, with a margin of error of ±2.95%.
