Russia Accuses NATO of Preparing to Occupy Moldova

Russia claims that NATO forces are planning to 'occupy' Moldova, which is a country near Ukraine.

They say this is part of a larger plan by the European Union.

These claims come just before an important election in Moldova.

The election will decide whether Moldova will become closer to the European Union or Russia.

NATO forces are reportedly gathering in Romania, close to Moldova.

Russia’s foreign intelligence service made the claim, according to the Associated Press.
