EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Vice-President of the European Commission Kaja Kallas began her official visit to the Republic of Moldova with a meeting with Minister of Foreign Affairs Mihai Popșoi.

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the discussions focused on the European Union's consistent support for the Republic of Moldova in managing the economic and social effects of the war of aggression initiated by Russia against Ukraine. The European official reaffirmed the EU's strong support for Ukraine in the face of military aggression.
