More than half of Moldovans support EU accession in referendum

The majority of Moldovans would vote in favor of joining the European Union if the issue were put to a referendum, with this option proving more popular than joining the Russian-controlled Eurasian Union.

This is evidenced by a survey conducted by CBS Research and commissioned by the WatchDog.MD initiative, the IPN news agency reports.

In the event of a referendum on accession to the European Union, more than 56% of respondents would vote in favor, and 25% would vote against. The rest are undecided or say they will not participate.

In a similar referendum, 35% of respondents would vote in favor of joining the Eurasian Union, while 47.5% would vote against it.

Given a choice between the EU and the Eurasian Union, 54% of Moldovans would choose the EU and only 25% would choose the Eurasian Union.
