The UK Spectator: Let us help plucky Moldova
The Spectator, a well-known British weekly, published an editorial by Daniel Korski bout Moldova in its Saturday issue.
The article is called "Let us help plucky Moldova" and urges the European Union to take a more pro-active approach in helping the country develop closer ties to the West.
An excerpt: "Now that the post-Cold War era has ended it is hard to find small, inspirational states who seek to cement a new-found independence and yearn for what the West has to offer. Georgia looked like such a state until Russian aggression and Tblisi's behaviour put an end to the country's westward journey. Ukraine is too big, and too bolshy to count. Belarus is happy in Moscow's embrace. But one country still fits the bill - Moldova."
