MOLDOVA

Russia's latest attempts to meddle in Moldova's politics take shape through Ilan Shor and his pro-Russian allies launching a new political bloc called "Pobeda," purposefully orchestrated to unseat Moldova's Western-oriented leadership. As Russia tries to pull Moldova back into its orbit, Moldova's government and the EU are on the opposing end.

GE Foreign Influence Bill

Foreign Influence Bill

GEORGIA

Georgia is at a political crossroads. There is widespread anger on the streets over a bill that seeks to curb foreign funding of non-governmental organizations. Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze says it is necessary to block external influences. But protesters say the legislation would silence critics of the government, ahead of parliamentary elections in October. European leaders have also criticized the bill, which feeds the concern that the crisis will undermine Goergia's ambition to join the European Union.

QT Blamed for Funding Chaos in US

Blamed for Funding Chaos in the US

QATAR

An Israeli media report has blamed Qatar for the ongoing protests against Israel in US colleges. Qatar is the top source of foreign funding for US colleges and has donated more than $5 billion in the last few decades. Israeli analysts believe Qatar, a major supporter of Hamas, is spreading antisemitism on campus. Meanwhile, the focus of college protests has turned back to Columbia, where students occupied the iconic Hamilton Hall, a historic place that had been occupied in the 1960s by students protesting the Vietnam War.
