MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia said on Monday it had summoned the Moldovan ambassador in Moscow to protest against what the Russian Foreign Ministry called "unfounded accusations" against the Russian ambassador in Chisinau by a Moldovan political party.
The foreign ministry said in a statement that the unnamed political party had called for Russia's ambassador to be expelled and for the work of Russia's embassy to be limited.
Moldovan President Maia Sandu told her Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Saturday that Russia was orchestrating an energy crisis in her country with the intention of bringing a pro-Moscow government to power there.
Russia denies any interference in Moldova's internal affairs.
