Artists from Romania, for Moldova”, claims Irina Rimes, in a video on Tik-Tok.
The beloved artist urged her audience to vote and criticized the Romanian singers who sent messages of support for Alexandr Stoianoglo.
“Go out and vote! I’m not telling you who to vote for. If you ask me what my position is, I think every person who watches this video knows what my position is, because I have some values. I am not urging you to vote with a particular candidate, I am urging you to go to the polls
I cannot remain indifferent to the things I see before my eyes. To my colleagues who have taken money to support a certain candidate, please stop doing so because you don’t know who you are supporting and it is clear that you have been paid to do so. It can be seen with the naked eye and that is not good. It’s not ok”, Irina Rimes also said.
