The place of the Republic of Moldova is in the European area and the transatlantic one, said U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Eric Rubin. In a meeting with President Nicolae Timofti in Chisinau, the U.S. official said the United States supports Moldova’s integration into the Western area, IPN reports.
If Russia exerts economic pressure on Moldova, the U.S. will provide more support to Chisinau, including financial, said Eric Rubin. He welcomed the Moldovan authorities’ decision to send a group of servicemen to Kosovo to take part in the international peacekeeping mission there.
“In this period that is decisive for my country’s future, we highly appreciate any sign of encouragement coming from our American fiends,” said Nicolae Timofti.
The two officials met at the Presidential Residence on November 8.
