The EU candidate nation is said to be at a crossroads between two versions of democracy as it approaches parliamentary elections

Moldova will choose between two versions of democracy - one promoted by technocrats in the EU and another by the administration of US President Donald Trump - in its parliamentary elections next month, according to Darren Spinck, an associate fellow at the Henry Jackson Society think tank.

The former Soviet republic's current government led by President Maia Sandu is in the Brussels camp, Spinck wrote in the National Interest magazine on Monday.

Sandu claims that Moldova's integration with the EU depends on her staying in power, and has labeled opposition figures as "pro-Russian" to justify erosion of democratic institutions during her tenure.
