4 July 2025 Today, Chisinau becomes the meeting point for Moldova and the European Union. The summit reaffirms that we are moving in the right direction and that our European partners recognize and trust the progress we have made. Moldova is being treated as a serious candidate for EU membership, a reliable neighbour and a country committed to change. This is reflected not only in political and financial support, but most importantly in concrete projects that deliver real benefits to our people. The European Union's €1.9 billion Growth Plan for Moldova is the largest financial assistance ever granted to our country. Europe is coming to Chisinau because Moldova demonstrates determination, results and credibility. And we, at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, remain committed to supporting this progress through hard work and a strong sense of responsibility. EU accession means real, lasting change for our citizens. Moldova is ready to move forward.
