Maia Sandu, who is running for a second presidential term in Moldova, has asked the electorate of other candidates who support European integration to support her in the second round of the presidential election.
“We have won the first battle in our struggle. Moldova fairly won an unjust war, defending its aspirations to join the EU. Moldovan citizens are united. I ask those who voted for pro-European candidates to support their position,” Sandu said.
She appealed to the electorate of Ion Chicu, Octavian Ticu, Andrei Nastase, and Tudor Ulianovschi to support her in the second round. Sandu made the same appeal to Renato Usatii’s supporters.
