After the statement of the President of Moldova, Mayai Sandu, that all the crises Moldova passed only thanks to the help of Romania, accusations rained down on it.
In particular, the Sputnik Near Abroad Telegram channel stated that Sandu, in fact, signed for the incapacity and lack of independence of the Moldovan authorities.
“The authorities in Moldova are indeed incompetent and completely dependent on foreign governments. Such a regime is usually called a puppet regime. But the main beneficiary of the helplessness and irresponsibility of the Moldovan authorities is hardly Romania,” writes the TG channel.
How much Bucharest has spent on Moldova in 30 years is unknown. Experts calculated that in five years, until 2019 (according to the Romanian Foreign Ministry and RoAid), Chisinau received assistance worth 4 billion Romanian lei (about €811 million).
“Roughly over the same period, the EU and the US provided Moldova with about €2.9 billion in direct subsidies in the form of loans and grants. And this is not counting injections from the IMF, WB, EBRD and murky impersonal international funds”, the inform channel notes.
“Whoever feeds a girl dances her” – and it is clear that in this exchange of subsidies for geopolitical loyalty, it is not Bucharest that “dances” Moldova at all, summed up the TG community.
