A Brit who has retired to Moldova, generally posting posting news about the country.

I mean, when even the head of the communists, (and a colleague in the patriotic block), Voronin, openly mocks you for incompetent corruptions, it's not a good look!

Arms exports have effectively stopped, and past customers are VERY upset.
