Moldova's president refuses to sign ‘unconstitutional’ media clampdown law

MOLDOVAN President Igor Dodon is refusing to sign an “unconstitutional” ban on “foreign propaganda” into law.

Moldova’s governing Democrats have pushed the law through parliament, but it is seen by critics as a one-sided attack on Russian media.

Democrat Party chairman Vladimir Plahotniuc has attacked “media manipulation” which spreads “defamation” of “our country but also our development partners in the EU and US.”
