Myths related to the process of European integration and the signing of the Association Agreement with the European Union are persistent in the Republic of Moldova. The most controversial of these are determined by several factors, which go hand in hand with considerable shifts in Moldova’s political climate. We could mention these political factors briefly: 1) the support for the European idea is continuously decreasing and is paradoxically lower than during Communist majority rule of 2005 - 2009; 1 2) the current government promotes the Association Agreement in an unfavorable context (unlike the accession of new states to the EU, which enjoyed the full support of the population), which increases the risks associated with the process; 3) the European agenda is promoted under these conditions within a narrow circle of people, gradually becoming a clique affair; 4) the criticism of integration processes by the opposition is confusing, focusing more on a Europeanism deficit in Moldova (not enough Europeanization) rather than on refuting of the European idea (the Europeans are accused of failing to adhere to their own ideas in the fight against corruption, free market, and enlargement).
