- Political discussions are polarizing, involving pro-EU, pro-Russia, and neutral viewpoints.
- Avoid discussing the unification of Romania and Moldova, or the conflict in Transnistria.
- Exercise caution when discussing Moldova's relationship with Russia and EU membership, especially in Gagauzia and Transnistria.
- While Romanian is the official language, identity and language discussions can be sensitive (Moldovan vs. Romanian).
