Imbangi yakhe uMnu uDodon uzwakalise ukudumala ngalo mphumela, wathi esitatimendeni; “Kusobala ukuthi besifuna iphesenti eliphezulu”. Uhalalisele izimbangi zakhe kodwa waxwayisa ngokuthi amasosha akhe azobheka kakhulu ngoba kuyingozi ukuthi iqembu elilodwa libe namandla okuphela kwezombusazwe zaseMoldova.
