On Sunday, Moldova held key votes in a presidential election and a referendum on EU membership, marking a critical moment in the continuing struggle between Russia and the west for control over the small, landlocked nation in eastern Europe, home to 2.5 million people.

After all the votes were counted in the referendum that asked voters to choose whether to enshrine in the country’s constitution a path toward the EU, the “yes” vote crept into first place with 50.46% of the nearly 1.5m ballots cast, according to the Central Electoral Commission.

Right now they certainly don't, they sit on the fence waiting what next. but the main factor in convincing them to do so was the duplicious stance of EU that was dangling the membership for decades while inviting many other countries before. So it's not like what they want matters, they were never gonna get invited anyways.
