Moscow is stepping up its attempts to influence the policies of Moldova and Georgia, German Foreign Minister Annalena Berbock said in an interview with El Pais newspaper in response to a journalist's question about whether German politics shares fears about a possible transition of Georgia and Moldova to Moscow's side..

“This is part of Russia's strategy to destabilize societies following the European path.. Russian attempts to influence Moldova and Georgia are intensifying, and the governments of these countries are fighting nepotism and corruption in order to dissociate themselves from the Russian Federation,” Burbock said..

The Minister stressed that Germany supports the decision of these countries to live in peace and freedom through the prospects of EU membership..

Burbock also believes that Europe should establish not only joint supplies of ammunition to Ukraine, but also their production..

The EU is considering providing the Moldovan Armed Forces with additional 40 million euros ($42.1 million) in assistance to strengthen air surveillance, logistics and cyber defense.

The media has repeatedly reported that the Kremlin has not abandoned the idea of \u200b\u200bannexing Georgian territories.
