Chisinau warns of Russian interference in voting abroad

The Moldovan special services have asked the German authorities to protect Moldovan citizens who will vote at polling stations in Germany in the second round of the presidential election on November 3 from possible Russian interference.

This is reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to DW.

According to the Welt am Sonntag newspaper, the government in Berlin asked the German Federal Criminal Police Office to treat this information “carefully”. Fake reports of mining were mentioned as an example of possible provocations. There will be 20 polling stations for Moldovan citizens in Germany.

Moldovan intelligence services also see the risk of similar Russian actions in France, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Washington has previously expressed fears that Russia will try to interfere in the new expression of Moldovan will.
