topumThere is a lot of pro-EU stuff everywhere in Moldova's streets. EU flags are everywhere next to Moldovan flags, etc.
This is what we saw in Orhei, one of Moldova's towns:
Most foreigners mistake it for some kind of pro-EU slogan at first (of which one can see plenty here). In reality "EU" means "I" in Romanian and it is simply "I love Orhei" and not "Orhei loves EU" or "EU loves Orhei". This thing is a potential love mess and it takes a minute to figure out who loves whom here.
