Moldova’s pro-European Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS), led by President Maia Sandu, claimed a decisive win in Sunday’s parliamentary elections, securing 50.2% of the vote against 24.2% for the Russian-leaning Patriotic Bloc. The result gives Sandu’s government a clear mandate to pursue Moldova’s long-term goal of EU membership by 2030, a move seen as a significant step away from Moscow’s influence in the small former Soviet republic. European leaders, including France, Germany, and Poland, congratulated Moldova on the peaceful conduct of the elections, while European Council President Antonio Costa praised voters for choosing “democracy, reform, and a European future.”

The elections were held under tense conditions, with widespread reports of Russian-backed disinformation campaigns, vote-buying attempts, and cyberattacks targeting election infrastructure. Sandu’s administration highlighted these efforts, noting fake bomb threats at polling stations and attacks on government websites. Russia denied meddling and instead accused the Moldovan government of manipulating the vote, with former President Igor Dodon calling for protests alleging election annulment, though no evidence was presented. Authorities warned of possible unrest in the coming days.

Moldova, a country of 2.4 million people, faces ongoing economic challenges including high inflation and energy costs, while attempting to meet the EU’s stringent membership requirements. Analysts see Sunday’s outcome as a strong endorsement of PAS’s European integration agenda but caution that bridging domestic divides and communicating the benefits of EU accession to sceptical Moldovans remain key challenges ahead.

Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: EA), the videogame publisher behind global franchises such as FC and Battlefield, is in advanced talks to go private in a deal valued at roughly $50 billion, according to sources familiar with the matter. The investor group reportedly includes Silver Lake, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners, with an announcement expected as soon as next week. If finalized, the deal would mark the largest leveraged buyout in history.

The move comes as EA doubles down on its flagship sports and action shooter titles, including the upcoming Battlefield 6 and FC 26, to offset a slowdown in the gaming industry. Shares of EA jumped nearly 15% on Friday following reports of the potential buyout, underscoring strong market optimism around the publisher’s stable cash flows and predictable annual revenues.

For Saudi Arabia’s PIF, the investment aligns with its Vision 2030 strategy to diversify beyond oil and strengthen its foothold in global entertainment, particularly through gaming and esports. Analysts say EA’s globally recognized sports portfolio, led by its soccer franchise FC, represents a strategic cultural asset with mass international appeal.

Belarus is considering the construction of a nuclear power plant in the eastern part of the country that could supply electricity to Russian-controlled areas of Ukraine, President Alexander Lukashenko announced on Friday. He presented the proposal during talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin.

“If a decision is made, we will immediately begin building a new power unit or a new station if there is a need in western Russia and in the liberated regions,” Lukashenko said, using Moscow’s term for Ukrainian territory under Russian occupation. Putin welcomed the idea, saying financing would not be an obstacle as long as there are consumers willing to pay for the electricity.

The proposal highlights the close partnership between the two leaders, with Belarus remaining a key ally of Moscow since the start of the Ukraine conflict. Lukashenko has allowed Russian troops to use Belarusian territory for military operations, and he continues to meet Putin more frequently than any other foreign leader, underscoring Minsk’s alignment with the Kremlin.
