The discussions were focused on the situation in the region and the bilateral agenda of the parliamentary group for the support of the Democratic Belarus, set up last year. The lawmakers of the parliamentary group, led by Marina Morozova, had a separate discussion with the opposition leader from Belarus.     

„I wished success to these women, who are special guests of the Moldova Women Forum 2023 and I am sure that such events will inspire as many as possible women to more actively get involved in the social, economic life. Our women create and lead success businesses, become world champions in performance sports, do wonderful things in the villages and cities which they lead,’’ Parliament Speaker Igor Grosu said.
