A Geopolitical Approach to the National Security of the Republic of Moldova in the Context of the Interferences of the Geostrategic Relations of the Great Powers

Abstract

The weight of the Republic of Moldova on the international stage, including the European segment, is practically insignificant, but, because of its current geopolitical situation and of its status as a supplier of regional insecurity, this country has caught the attention of the great powers, which perceive it as part of a geostrategic game, a situation which generates an imminent impact on national security. Because of its reduced geopolitical potential, the Republic of Moldova is treated by the international actors as a small state/ simultaneously dependent on the fluctuations of the geostrategic interests of the great powers, with national security constantly requesting a pragmatic approach as well as a diplomatic-political approach.
