#Moldova: alongside the first round of the presidential election, the constitutional referendum on the accession to the European Union took place.

Despite ongoing investigations into vote buying and "unprecedented malign interference by Russia" as described by the EU, the amendment to the Constitution was approved by 50.35% of the voters, with a difference of 10,564 votes in favour. The Constitutional Court validated the referendum yesterday, meaning the Constitution will be amended.
