CHISINAU, December 18. /TASS/. Moldovan President Igor Dodon has expressed indignation at the Foreign Ministry’s decision to recall the country’s Ambassador to Russia Andrei Negutsa for consultations.
"This unfriendly step has been taken ahead of my upcoming visit to Moscow upon the invitation of Russian President Vladimir Putin," Dodon told TASS.
