"In the past 2.5-3 years, Moldova’s government has practically blocked all contacts with Russia and we have had relations only at the level of presidents. I am sure we will have very good relations with Russia under the new government," he said in an interview with the Vesti Nedeli with Dmitry Kiselev weekly news roundup on the Rossiya-1 television channel.

Earlier, Dodon noted that Moldova’s relations with Russia would largely depend on who heads his country’s government.

Its supporters unblocked entrances to the governmental buildings. The new government of Maia Sandu gathered for its first meeting on Saturday.
