On September 28, Moldovans head to the polls to cast their vote in parliamentary elections. Wedged between NATO and Ukraine, amid political strife and still suffering from Russian destabilisation operations and a breakaway region in the east, Moldova is facing unprecedented challenges. Melania Parzonka, coordinator of the Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham House, looks ahead at the elections and their potential consequences for the EU accession trajectory.
