Moldova's Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu resigns, triggering government's resignation.
Moldovan Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu announced his resignation on Friday, which automatically triggers the government's resignation under Moldovan law. Munteanu did not provide a clear reason for his departure, which comes less than a year after he took office leading the pro-Western government of the EU candidate country. President Maia Sandu will consult parliamentary groups to appoint a new prime minister.
