Russia is intensifying its hybrid warfare against Moldova ahead of parliamentary elections, employing tactics such as vote-buying, disinformation through bot networks, and exploiting social issues like LGBTQ+ rights. Experts warn of a more aggressive campaign compared to previous elections, with the involvement of local influencers and the Orthodox Church in spreading propaganda. Moldova's authorities are cracking down on these activities, aiming to prevent Russian influence and protect the country's pro-European stance.
