An efficiently functioning border that facilitates free movement of people and goods is a strategic priority for the Republic of Moldova. This was the central focus of the latest meeting of the National Council for Integrated State Border Management, chaired by Minister of Internal Affairs Daniella Misail-Nichitin.

The Moldovan Ministry of Internal Affairs prioritizes strengthening mechanisms to prevent and combat drug use and trafficking with the goal of protecting citizens from the harmful effects of illicit substances and promoting a safe and healthy environment.

Moldova continues to strengthen its commitment to public security, institutional reform and regional stability through its active participation in the 34th session of the UN Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, recently held in Vienna.

Border crossings in Moldova will become faster, safer and more efficient for citizens. Border police will be equipped with modern tools and receive advanced training to prevent illegal migration and combat cross-border crime, enhancing the safety of people and communities.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) and the Global Security Sector Reform Foundation (GS Foundation) are strengthening their collaboration to build a more effective, transparent and people-cantered security sector. The signing of the new Cooperation Agreement marks a decisive step toward protecting citizens and upholding democratic values.
