Quick Glance: Romanian Orthodox Church Embraces Moldovan Priests
- A growing conflict within Moldova's Orthodox community between the churches affiliated with the Russian Orthodox Patriarchate and the Romanian Church reflects the divided opinion among parishioners.
- Over 60 priests have switched from the Moscow-linked church to the Romanian Church since last year, aligning with Moldova's pro-European authorities' goal to join the European Union by 2030.
- The pressure to choose between the two rival churches highlights Moldova's tumultuous history, having been part of the Russian Empire, Soviet Union, and 'Greater Romania' in the past.
- While the Romanian Church continues to welcome Moldovan priests and establish new churches, the Moldova Metropolis has defrocked priests joining the rival church and urges them to return.

Quick Glance: Heads of anti-government bloc report delays and harassment upon returning to Moldova
- Leaders of a new pro-Russian electoral bloc opposed to Moldovan President Maia Sandu's plans to seek European Union membership said they were deliberately delayed and harassed at the airport on their return home.
- Opposition parties, meeting at the weekend in Moscow, announced the formation of a bloc dubbed 'Victory' to take part in a presidential election and a referendum on EU membership set for October.
- The parties rallied around the fugitive pro-Russian business magnate Ilan Shor, who was sentenced last year in absentia to 15 years in prison for mass fraud.
- Sandu criticized Moscow's incursion into Ukraine and identified Russia and corruption as the two main threats to her country nestled between Ukraine and EU member Romania.
