Weird that he included Romania too, Romania is part of NATO , has pretty cold relations with Russia and we use a latin based keyboard.

There must be a different reason.

Nope, that's Moldova. Reasons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russians_in_Moldova https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transnistria

That makes sense, but the article is using the wrong reason , it placed Romania and Ukraine in a list of "Kremlin friends", I just wanted to append to the parent comment to clarify for people that don't know all the eastern European countries and the relations.

They didn't, they included Romania (Moldova), which must be what they use in Moldova.

It's "Romanian (Moldova)", i.e. "Language (Country)". East Moldova stopped calling it Moldavian a while ago and "mo" and "mol" have been deprecated.

My point stands, they did not include Romania, the country -- you would not have the Romanian (Moldova) keyboard installed in Romania.
