Moldova's democracy stands strong, but political will alone is not enough to face external challenges, I emphasized at the @coe summit in Reykjavik. With Russia remaining a source of instability for our region, Moldova must join the EU to safeguard and consolidate our democracy.

We condemn the attacks on Brazil's Presidency, Congress, and Supreme Court today. Using violence to attack democratic institutions is always unacceptable. We join @lulaoficial in urging an immediate end to these actions.
