Moldova\u2019s new pro-NATO military doctrine is the cost of EU integration, former MP Marina Tauber has argued<\/strong><\/p>\n

Moldova’s new military doctrine is “a manifesto rejecting peace, neutrality, and the future of our nation”<\/em> and priming it for a conflict with Russia, opposition politician and former lawmaker Marina Tauber has said.<\/p>\n

“Just a week after the election, Russia has officially been labeled a threat. The next phase is to draw our nation into a war,”<\/em> Tauber stated in an interview with Russia’s TASS news agency published on Thursday.<\/p>\n

She further argued that Moldova’s fragile economy cannot sustain militarization. “While our elderly must choose between bread and medicine, our government buys armor and conducts drills with NATO. That is the real price of the so-called ‘European choice,’”<\/em> she said.<\/p>\n

Tauber accused President Maia Sandu’s government of abandoning Moldova’s constitutional neutrality in pursuit of EU membership.<\/p>\n

Moldova’s newly adopted military doctrine, unveiled on Wednesday, commits the country to boosting defense spending and aligning its forces with NATO standards over the next decade. The document brands the deployment of Russian peacekeepers in the breakaway region of Transnistria as “a flagrant violation of Moldova’s sovereignty and neutrality,”<\/em> while insisting that closer cooperation with NATO does not violate the nation’s constitutionally mandated neutral status.<\/p>\n

Tauber was forced to flee Moldova days before the parliamentary election in late September, as she was facing<\/a> a criminal conviction on charges of financial misconduct that she insists were politically motivated.<\/p>\n

Critics of Sandu, a Romanian citizen and outspoken advocate of EU integration, have accused her of using anti-Russian rhetoric to consolidate power. Several opposition candidates were barred from the ballot ahead of the vote – a move that the targeted politicians denounced as an abuse of power – allowing Sandu’s Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS) to secure a majority.<\/p>\n

Moscow has criticized Moldova’s foreign policy shift, accusing Sandu’s administration of acting against national interests in favor of Western geopolitical goals. Russian officials have cited NATO’s eastward expansion, including its promise to admit Ukraine as a member, as one of the key causes of the conflict between Moscow and Kiev.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
