Former Moldovan journalist Natalia Morari received an official document confirming her ban from entering the EU, SEE and Switzerland until 2030. She crossed the Leușeni border without incident, but at Albița in Romania she was questioned and denied entry. The Romanian Border Police cited national‑security concerns under the 2002 Foreigners Regulation and issued a five‑year prohibition. Morari announced she will appeal the decision. The ban also affected former Moldovan prime minister Vasile Tarlev and Chișinău mayor Ion Ceban, following earlier restrictions in July 2025.
