And all of that, of course, after a rigged election.

The Pro EU candidate won by 11.000 votes. About 500.000 Moldovans live in the EU and Russia each respectively. The ones in the EU could vote in around 280 election offices. The ones in the latter in...two (2).

My first thought was "why didn't Russia do more?" but then I remembered it's a Moldovan referendum and the government of Moldova is responsible for the voting locations.

But that's Western-style democracy for ya.
