Moldovan President Vladimir Voronin has accused EU member Romania of meddling with his country’s affairs and attempting to stage a coup, following anti-communist riots in Chisinau after the Sunday’s elections.
Kouchner’s spokesman reiterated the joint statement made by the foreign ministers of France, the Czech Republic and Sweden on Thursday, urging Moldovan authorities to resume normal ties with Romania.
“Through this statement, the minister (French Minister Bernard Kouchner – e.n.) wants to reassure Romania of the European Union’s support, of France in particular,” Kouchner’s spokesman said.
After accusing Romania of fueling the riots in Chisinau, the Moldovan authorities reacted by imposing a visa regime on Romanian nationals, expelling Romania’s ambassador and denying access or detaining Romanian journalists.
