Early to discuss Moldovan President Maia Sandu's visit to Russia, says Russian Foreign Ministry

Moscow/Sputnik: It is too early to talk about Moldovan President Maia Sandu’s visit to Russia before the parliamentary elections in Moldova, Andrey Rudenko, the Russian deputy foreign minister, said on Thursday.

"Currently, Moldova is passing through quite a difficult period, a moment in its political development. The elections, which will largely determine the parliament’s composition and the role of certain political forces, are coming up on July 11. In this regard, I suppose, that probably it is too early now to speak about Sandu’s visit to Russia before the elections’ end," Rudenko said during the Central Asian Conference of Russia's Valdai Discussion Club.

According to Rudenko, anything could happen.

In late April, Sandu had dissolved the parliament, as it failed twice in three months to form a new government after that on May 14, Moldova’s central election committee began to receive documents from political organizations seeking to run in the elections
