Great synopsis of the process. Thanks for debunking the misinformation from the Wall Street Journal. Collapse is not the correct description.

I have the pleasure of knowing Natalia Gavrilita personally, for a long time. She is one of the most forceful and insightful people I know. She is strong and feisty. Her honesty is legendary. Her knowledge of public affairs is amazing. I am sure Natalia will continue to play a very important role in Moldovan politics, even if from the background. Natalia is far from done with working for the country. I cannot but feel for her and in a way am glad that she will have a chance to breathe, however she must be feeling gutted now and needs all our support we can offer.

Hi Tamara, thanks for the comment and the personal insights! Personally, I think it will be very interesting to see where the former Prime Minister winds up. I also believe she has a lot to contribute and I hope that she finds a place in or out of the new government where she can continue to support Moldova's EU path. That said, I hope that all comes after some much deserved rest.
