Moldovan Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu announced his resignation on Friday, putting an end to the pro-European government he led since last November.
“I accepted the proposal to be Prime Minister with great responsibility and with the firm belief that I can contribute to changing things for the better,” he wrote in a post on his Facebook page. “But the moment I understood that I could no longer exercise my mandate in accordance with the principles and beliefs I have, I chose to leave.”
Moldovan President Maia Sandu appointed Munteanu to the premiership in November of last year. Both politicians backed policies geared toward facilitating the Eastern European country’s speedy accession into the EU.
