The European Union will continue to support the current reform efforts in Moldova in order to maximize the benefits of the Association Agreement, says a congratulatory statement addressed to Moldova on the 25th anniversary of its independence.
“To enhance the resilience of both state and society, and for the benefit of all citizens, the implementation of much-needed, genuine reforms, an unwavering fight against corruption, the de-politicisation of state institutions, the strengthened independence of the judiciary, the modernisation of public services, the improvement of media freedom, and the implementation of deep economic reforms are indispensable prerequisites.
On the occasion of this 25th anniversary, the European Union reiterates its call for renewed efforts of the sides towards reaching a comprehensive, peaceful settlement of the Transnistrian conflict based on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of Moldova with a special status for Transnistria”, reads the statement.
