Moldovan authorities have prohibited a pro-Russian political party from participating in the upcoming 2025 elections, citing national security concerns. The decision was announced by the country's Central Electoral Commission, which stated that the party failed to meet legal requirements and posed a threat to Moldova's sovereignty and stability. The move has sparked controversy, with critics arguing it undermines democratic processes and restricts political pluralism. Supporters of the ban contend it is necessary to prevent foreign influence and maintain Moldova's independence amid ongoing regional tensions.
