MAE: România condamnă alegerile organizate de Rusia în teritoriile ocupate din Ucraina și în Transnistria
Romania's Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemns Russia's organization of elections in occupied Ukrainian territories and in Transnistria without Moldova's consent. The elections for the State Duma are scheduled for September 18-20, 2026. The Romanian government views these actions as violations of Moldova's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Additionally, Romania rejects any attempts to legitimize Russia's actions through electoral processes, asserting that such elections cannot alter the international status of the affected territories. Romania reaffirms its support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of both Ukraine and Moldova.
