The Moldovan president dissolved parliament and called early elections
Moldovan President Maja Sandu dissolved parliament and called early elections for July 11th.
This came shortly after the country's Constitutional Court overturned a state of emergency imposed by parliament to fight the pandemic but thwarted Sandu's intentions for new elections.
The pro-Western president accuses the parliamentary majority of obstructing necessary reforms and anti-corruption measures. Former Moldovan President Igor Dodon, the pro-Russian leader of the Socialist Party, has said he is ready for the election, although the country's current budget does not provide funding for their organization.
