At this stage, the authorities in Chisinau do not see how the Russian Federation could reach Moldova militarily. The statement was made by Prime Minister Dorin Recean at a press conference held after the cabinet meeting, IPN reports.

The chief executive said that Moldova is at the table of talks on peace in Ukraine. "President Sandu is present in the international and European environment. And correspondingly, the Republic of Moldova is taking care to move to shelter," the prime minister added.

Dorin Recean also said that the country's goal is for the Republic of Moldova to become a member of the European Union, where there is peace, security and prosperity.

The US administration, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, has halted funding for new arms sales to Ukraine and is considering freezing arms deliveries from US stockpiles. They are measures that threaten Kiev's ability to fight at a critical moment in its struggle against Russian forces, current and former US officials have said, cited by international media.
