MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russia's foreign ministry summoned the Moldovan ambassador on Wednesday and issued a protest against "unfriendly acts" in the latest of a series of jabs exchanged between the Kremlin and the ex-Soviet state's pro-European authorities.
A ministry statement denounced the "systematic character" of Moldovan actions it said were directed against Russian citizens. These, it said, included "politically motivated persecution" of Russian and Russian-language journalists.
