His opponent, pro-European Maia Sandu, the leader of the Action and Solidarity Party got only 48% of the vote, show the results provided on Monday by the Central Electoral Committee. Also on Monday Maia Sandu announced she would challenge the result of the election at the Constitutional Court, as, according to her, there is evidence that the vote was rigged. The election was marked by protests after ballots in various polling stations in the Diaspora ran out. This election was the first after 20 years when Moldovans voted for their president through direct vote. So far the president was elected by Parliament. In Bucharest, President Klaus Iohannis reiterated Romania\u2019s firm support for the Republic of Moldova\u2019s European accession and for the continuation of bilateral projects. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ELECTION BULGARIA<\/strong>&#8212; Sunday\u2019s presidential election in Bulgaria was won by the candidate of the Socialist opposition, General Rumen Radev, a former air force commander and a Russia-friendly political novice. He obtained 58.1% of the votes while his challenger, centre-right speaker of parliament, Tsetska Tsacheva, won just over 35% of the vote. Following the result, the PM Boyko Borisov has tendered his resignation, after the Socialist candidate defeated his nominee in the presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p><strong>MILITARY DRILL<\/strong> &#8211; Romanian, Bulgarian, Croatian and Georgian soldiers are participating, as of Monday, in a multinational exercise meant to improve the activity of military engineers during operations in hostile environments under NATO command.
