The national road M1 will undergo repairs, from the Leușeni border crossing point towards Nisporeni

The national road M1 will be repaired on a section of almost 38 kilometers, from the Leușeni border crossing point towards Nisporeni. The National Road Administration has launched the tender for the designation of the company that will carry out the works financed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, reports IPN.

According to AND, the contract is divided into two lots. The first targets the rehabilitation of an 8.2 kilometer section, in the area of the localities Leuseni, Cotul Morii, and Sarateni. The second lot includes a segment of 29.6 kilometers that crosses the localities of Onesti, Costesti, Bujor, Chetroseni, Miresti, Mirzoaia, Cristesti, and Iurceni.

The project involves the construction of a new concrete roadway, earthworks, drainage system arrangements, building of retaining walls, rehabilitation of bridges and culverts, as well as marking and signaling works. Depending on the specifics of each section, two, three or four traffic lanes will be arranged, along with roundabouts, sidewalks, and public transport stations.

The estimated duration for the execution of the works is approximately 2 and a half years. Interested companies can submit their offers until September 30, 2026, through the EBRD’s electronic procurement platform.

According to the National Road Administration, the rehabilitation of this section of the M1 road is a project of strategic importance, which will improve accessibility, traffic conditions, and road safety for the residents of the region and for traffic participants.



Official documents issued in the Republic of Moldova and Germany may now be used in each other’s countries with only an apostille, without the need for the legalization procedure. The measure enters into force following the Federal Republic of Germany’s withdrawal of the reservation it made in 2007 when the Republic of Moldova acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention, IPN reports.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that the decision was made following steps taken by Deputy Prime Minister Mihai Popsoi, Minister of Foreign Affairs, during his May 18–19 meeting with his German counterpart, Johann David Wadephul.

The ministry emphasizes that the new system will eliminate the need to visit multiple institutions or diplomatic missions to have documents legalized, which will reduce both the time required and the costs incurred by citizens. The simplified procedure will apply to official documents such as birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates, criminal records, academic diplomas, and diploma supplements.

The Hague Convention on the Apostille entered into force for the Republic of Moldova on March 16, 2007. With its implementation in relations with Germany, the Republic of Moldova will benefit from the same simplified procedure for the recognition of official documents as it does with all 130 states and entities that are parties to the convention.

Maritime schools could be opened in Moldova following the full transposition of relevant European legislation. The statement was made by Deputy Prime Minister Vladimir Bolea, Minister of Infrastructure and Regional Development, who noted that there is growing interest in such programs, including from Ukrainian citizens affected by the war, according to IPN.

Vladimir Bolea stated that the new regulations will allow seaman’s books to be issued based on studies completed in the Republic of Moldova at authorized institutions.

The minister told the press that, at present, no ships are sailing under the flag of the Republic of Moldova, but the authorities are working to transpose European legislation and develop the legal framework necessary for the development of this sector.

According to him, the state and the Naval Agency could generate significant revenue both from ships sailing under the Moldovan flag and from institutions that train seafarers.
