CHISINAU (Reuters) -Moldova's pro-European ruling party faces a tough fight to keep its parliamentary majority against opponents calling for closer ties with Moscow, with a new poll confirming a tight race while many voters remain undecided ahead of Sunday's election.
President Maia Sandu, who has focused on talks for European Union membership by 2030 for one of Europe's poorest countries, has denounced Russia's invasion of neighbouring Ukraine and accuses Moscow of interfering in the election, while the opposition has pressed concerns over high living costs.
