The Delegation of the European Union to Moldova, in the meeting of the Council for Trade, formulated a number of recommendations for stimulating the implementation of the commitments within the Deep and Compressive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) between Moldova and the EU. One of them is to more actively use the export potential of the DCFTA, especially of the preferential quotas, and to obtain the right to export products of animal origin, IPN reports, quoting the Ministry of Economy.

The EU experts recommended resuming and accelerating the activities to harmonize the national legislation and implement the European legislation. It is planned that about 30 European directives in different areas will be transposed to the national legislation in 2015. It was also recommended organizing videoconferences to ensure the better understanding of the EU legislation and its impact on the business environment and consumers and to stage activities to disseminate information about the DCFTA in Moldova, including Transnistria.

It was noted that the foreign trade in 2014 grew following the 9.6% increase in exports to the EU, compared with 2013. These exports represented 53.3% of the total exports.
