STORYLINE:
Soldiers from Moldova's army units were voting on Sunday in Chisinau in a tense parliamentary election plagued by claims of Russian interference.

The vote is seen as a choice between integration with the European Union or a drift back into Moscow’s fold.

Sunday’s pivotal vote will elect a new 101-seat parliament, after which Moldova’s president nominates a prime minister, generally from the leading party or bloc, which can then try to form a new government.

A proposed government then needs parliamentary approval.

Polls opened at 7 a.m. (0400 GMT) and will close at 9 p.m. (1800 GMT).
