Moldova calls withdrawal from Russian market a sabotage
The former Prime Minister of Moldova spoke about the withdrawal of his country's products from the Russian market.
According to the politician, the step taken by the authorities was a diversion for the Moldovan economy.
This statement was made by Moldovan presidential candidate Vasile Tarlev in a conversation with RIA Novosti journalists.
Let us recall that Moldova is an observer in the CIS and the EAEU, but has not participated in the life of these organizations since 2022. The country has repeatedly stated its intention to reorient its market to the West.
At the same time, Tarlev rightly noted that now on the shelves of stores in Russia one can easily find wines of French, Italian, Czech and German production, while at the same time Moldovan wines have become a real rarity.
They [European countries – editor’s note] deceived us so that we would leave the market, and they took it over,” Tarlev is sure, calling this step sabotage.
According to the politician, the European Union market is quite large, but it is already occupied by products from Europe, so it will be difficult to take a place there. Moreover, Moldovan products are unknown there.
Moreover, Moldova supplied huge volumes of its products to the CIS, while the EU was only willing to take small quantities.
