More Beeb bullshit
For many months, the Beeb news website has been awash with maps of eastern Europe. Many of those maps show where Moldova is.
Moldova is land-locked between Ukraine and Romania. In no sense is Moldova a neighbour of Russia.
But this is on the Beeb site this evening:

I can't tell you about the other support that I'm helping to provide, except to say that it's digital.
