In recent years, Moldovan authorities have campaigned against Russian propaganda and disinformation in the country and sought to limit the use of the Russian language. In 2021, the Moldovan Constitutional Court repealed a law passed by the previous parliament that would have allowed minorities in the country to use Russian. The law would have required product, service, and medication labels sold in the country to include Russian. On December 24, 2021, when Maia Sandu took the oath for her first term, she spoke not only in Romanian but also in Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and Gagauz. She declared at the time that she "loves and respects equally all citizens of the country, regardless of their ethnicity and religion." "For me, all citizens are equal. I will work with you so you feel secure and can develop, learn, and speak your mother tongue. All of us have been robbed. I want to restore justice for all citizens of our country," Sandu said then in each of the four minority languages in Moldova.
