Moldovan President held meeting with Council of Europe Secretary General
President Maia Sandu held a meeting today with Secretary General of the Council of Europe Alain Berset in the context of the Republic of Moldova assuming the Presidency of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe. The presidency, For a Europe of Peace and Resilience, will focus on promoting peace, supporting mechanisms for a just peace in Ukraine, and strengthening democratic resilience on the continent. The head of state emphasized that after three elections in two years marked by foreign interference, Moldova is ready to actively contribute to European efforts to protect democracies from hybrid attacks.
During the discussions, the President welcomed the continuous support provided by the Council of Europe for building institutional capacities and advancing judicial sector reforms outlined in the Council of Europe's Action Plan for the Republic of Moldova 2025–2028. This document is an essential tool for strengthening the independence and integrity of the judiciary, aligning legislation with European standards, and enhancing the transparency and accessibility of state institutions for the benefit of citizens. The reforms, eagerly awaited by society and supported by European partners are essential for advancing the EU accession process.
Maia Sandu reaffirmed Moldova's firm commitment to remain a constructive European partner dedicated to peace, democracy and the rule of law. Over the next six months, our country will play an increasingly active role in the work of the Council of Europe, with the Presidency concluding with the Ministerial Meeting in Chișinău on 15 May 2026.
