Moldova's 2025 parliamentary elections took place on September 16 amid aggressive efforts by Russia to influence and destabilize the country through hybrid warfare, including misinformation campaigns by Russian media, cyber operations, economic pressure, and covert support for opposition forces. The Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS), strongly supporting European integration, won decisively despite Russia's attempts to split society and disrupt democratic processes. The election outcome reaffirmed Moldova’s commitment to European values and integration, bolstered by support from the United States and European Union. Analysts consider Moldova's electoral resilience a strategic case study in successfully countering Russian hybrid threats through democratic robustness, strong civil society, and international support.
