Thousands of people took part in protests, reportedly organized by the populist Sor Party, in Moldova's capital, Chisinau, March 12, 2023.whom OFAC previously designated in October 2022 for being responsible for or complicit in interference in a United States or other foreign government election for the benefit of, directly or indirectly, the government of the Russian Federation, according to the U.S. Department of Treasury.
The protesters called for the current president of Moldova, Maia Sandu, to resign."During the protests, Moldovan intelligence services and police forces maintained public order and conducted multiple raids, made arrests, and expelled foreign individuals carrying out subversive actions to destabilize the government of Moldova," the Treasury says.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken addressed the American Israel Public Affairs Committee annual policy summit on June 5, 2023, in D.C. "The sanctions imposed today shine a light on Russia’s ongoing covert efforts to destabilize democratic nations," Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian E. Nelson said in a statement Monday."Russia’s attempted influence operations exploit the concerns of the citizens of these countries, to destabilize legitimately elected governments for Moscow’s own interests.
