The Kremlin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said Russia does not recognize the Moldov President Maia Sandu winning the election.
Peskov told pro-state Kommersant news outlet on Tuesday that the “majority” of Moldovan’s did not vote for her.
Another Russian MP, Sergey Mironov has claimed that the “West has shown how you can steal elections under the guise of democracy.”
Russia strongly believes that the West has worked out a way to keep controlled elites in power.
Sandu won the election by a margin of 55.3% to 44.7% and she said there was “unprecedented” election interference which was backed by Moscow.
The Kremlin backed predecessor and the socialist chairman; Igor Dodon accused the Moldovan President of “brazen manipulation” in the elections.
The party is planning to appeal Sandu’s win in the Constitutional Court and Central Election Committee over the so called “violations by authorities.”
Mironov told LondonLovesBusiness.com, “The current president, Maya Sandu, who was supported by the United States and the EU, won the elections in Moldova.
“According to official data, she won thanks to the votes of the country’s citizens living in Europe and America. On the territory of Moldova, a smaller part of voters voted for Sandu.
“The West has long used a variety of ways to suppress the votes of unwanted voters, including administrative pressure. In the case of Moldova, a huge diaspora in Russia was actually excluded from the elections – only two polling stations were opened for these citizens in Moscow, where ballots quickly ran out.
“By comparison, more than 80 polling stations were opened in Europe and North America, which is more than in the previous elections. The voting and counting of votes there were completely non-transparent, the opposition could not control it in any way. Unlike Sandu’s henchmen, who organized the whole process, and the authorities of the countries where the polling stations were located.
“The majority of voters in Moldova did not support Sandu, but her rival, Alexander Stoyanoglo, who advocates the development of good relations with Russia.
“Moldova and Russia historically have close relations, and the republic is home to a large number of Russian and Russian-speaking residents who, like in Russia, profess Orthodoxy. But the elections were actually stolen from these people. This is not democracy. I will be glad to make a mistake if such a “victory” by Sandu does not lead Moldova to the catastrophe that the West is pushing it to.
“But it will be possible to avoid it only if Chisinau starts listening to citizens living in their own country, and not to advisers from Brussels and Washington.”
