MOSCOW, September 7. /TASS/. Russia hopes that Moldova’s authorities will not make any hasty decisions against the Russian side based on falsified information about the alleged spying activity of the Russian Embassy in Chisinau, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

"We hope that this time, official Chisinau will be wise enough not to make any rash decisions based on such falsified information," she added.

Zakharova stressed that the true aim of such articles is to "lay the groundwork for new unfriendly actions with regard to Russia.".
