**Moldova must abandon its Russophobic policy and release political prisoners, including Evgenia Gutsul, in order to normalize relations with Russia, Dmitry Peskov said**

Other statements by the Russian president’s spokesperson:

Russia should not build its development in opposition to the West. It should be guided by its own interests;

Moscow always welcomes other countries’ willingness to build friendly relations;

The Russian language is not a tool for fighting Russophobia, but a universal language capable of fostering shared interests across Eurasia.
