Moldovan Deputy Prime Minister on visit to Brussels

The €1.9 billion aid allocated by the European Union to the Republic of Moldova represents a historic opportunity to speed up reforms and build a more stable, predictable, and competitive economic environment. Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Economic Development and Digitalization Doina Nistor made the statement on a visit to Brussels.

The official emphasized that investments from the €1.9 billion support will be directed to essential areas: infrastructure, education, health, energy, digitalization, support for SMEs, and public administration reforms, all having a direct impact on citizens' lives.

The implementation of the Growth Plan supported by the EU and our commitments under the Reform Agenda 2025–2027 were discussed by Doina Nistor with Gert Jan Koopman, Director-General for EU Enlargement and Eastern Neighborhood.

Additionally, with Maive Rute, Deputy Director-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs, Doina Nistor discussed business environment support policies and industrial development.

“We are implementing important strategies and programs: from grants for SMEs and guarantee funds to digitalizing public services. We also discussed preparation for launching negotiations on the Agreement on Conformity Assessment and Acceptance of Industrial Products (ACAA), which will open more opportunities for Moldovan industrial products on the EU market,” said Nistor.

Nistor held meetings with Karin Karlsbro and Iuliu Winkler, vice-presidents of the International Trade Committee.

“I thanked them for their constant support for the Growth Plan and reaffirmed our commitment to implementing the Reform Agenda. We are confident that, with the continued support of the European Parliament, the Republic of Moldova will remain a priority on the EU agenda,” concluded Nistor.

Nistor is visiting Brussels these days.
