Abstract:
Today the world is becoming more and more complex. The (geo)political and geostrategic
environment is turbulent and marked by big or small actors (states, continental/transnational
economic structures or intergovernmental organizations, and, not least, media institutions), which
determine the dynamics of national and international life. In the article the author discusses
the interaction between the geopolitics of small countries and the mass media. He mentions
that small countries and their media should be treated with caution and a lot of attention when
discussing geopolitics, because recently they have become the epicenter of events that attract
the attention of global public opinion. The advantages of media geopolitics, including those of
small countries, are increasingly felt in the context of the rapid development of communication
and information technologies. This fact is also reflected in the activity of the mass media in the
Republic of Moldova, which also has certain geopolitical interests in the region of its location.
In conclusion, the author comes with recommendations regarding the strategies and tactics to be
applied by the Moldovan mass media in the process of debating geopolitical issues
