    • Abstract:
      Moldovan prosecutors have charged Evghenia Gutul, the pro-Russian governor of the Gagauzia region, with corruption. She is accused of accepting over $2.4 million in illicit funding from Russia. Gutul, who denies the accusations, is part of a group funded by fugitive oligarch Ilan Shor that aims to derail the European Union agenda of Moldovan President Maia Sandu. The Russian government has been using various tactics, including deep fakes and cash, to undermine democratic institutions in Moldova. [Extracted from the article]
