Prime Minister Vasile Tofan today in Antalya had a meeting with Vice President of Turkey Cevdet Yılmaz, on the sidelines of the UN Climate Change Conference (COP31). The discussions focused on developing the Moldovan-Turkish strategic partnership, strengthening economic relations and cooperation for the development of the Autonomous Territorial Unit of Gagauzia.

The officials discussed expanding trade, facilitating access for Moldovan products to the Turkish market, including by increasing the quota for wine exports and attracting new investments. PM Vasile Tofan also highlighted the contribution of Turkish companies to the development of the energy sector, through their involvement in the Balti–Suceava power line project and investments in renewable energy.

An important topic of the discussions was Turkey’s contribution to the development of the Autonomous Territorial Unit of Gagauzia. Prime Minister Vasile Tofan appreciated the Turkish side’s continued support for the region and reaffirmed the authorities’ commitment to respecting Gagauzia’s autonomy and protecting the cultural and linguistic identity of the community.

Against the backdrop of the elections in Gagauzia, scheduled for 15 November, Prime Minister Tofan thanked the Turkish side for supporting the participation of representatives of the Turkish Parliament in observing the vote. The officials also discussed preparations for the opening of the college in Comrat, built with Turkey’s support, which is planned for September 2027.
