Explanation
Moldova is an Eastern European state situated between Romania to its west and Ukraine on its other sides. Political maps of Moldova show Romania and Ukraine as the immediate neighbouring countries, with Transnistria lying along the eastern edge adjacent to Ukraine [1]. Ukraine’s border descriptions explicitly list a substantial Moldova–Ukraine frontier (including portions along the Dniester), confirming Ukraine as a direct neighbour [2]. Belarus is not contiguous with Moldova and lies well to the north-east of both Ukraine and Moldova, so it does not share a border with Moldova. Therefore, only Ukraine and Romania border Moldova.
