The dog of Maia Sandu, Moldovan president, has bitten the
hand of Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen.
The etiquette faux-pas happened on Thursday when der Bellen
tried to pet the dog, a rescue called Codrut.
In an Instagram post on Friday, the Austrian president said
the dog’s reaction was understandable, adding that he gave Codrut a toy on the
last day of his visit as a sign of friendship.
“My first meeting with Codrut, the “First Dog” of the Republic of Moldova, caused a bit of a stir,” the president posted on his Instagram.

“Everyone who knows me knows that I’m a big dog lover and
can understand his excitement – he was nervous because of all the people around
him. It was all half as bad.”
Der Bellen added that the talks held with the Moldovan
president and many Austrian entrepreneurs were fruitful.
