'In the past four years, the government has taken concrete steps to build European Moldova: a safe and prosperous country for people and businesses. We will continue to implement reforms that ensure a better life for all citizens. The main actions we aim to implement can be found in the National Development Plan. There are 267 concrete projects that describe what Moldova will look like in 2028,' he said.


The document sees 108 modernization actions for the country, which will be implemented through 267 development projects. 65% ensure the continuity of projects started within the NDP 2025-2027, and every third initiative is new, adjusted to current needs and European integration objectives.

Major planned projects include repairing 200 km of railway and 1,370 km of national roads. In the coming years, the construction and modernization of thousands of kilometers of roads are planned, including Iași - Ungheni - Chișinău - Odesa highway, Bălți - Florești - Mărculești route, the access route to Cosăuți - Yampol Bridge, and several roads in rural areas.

In the next three years, the government will focus on modernizing localities, improving living conditions, creating jobs, strengthening social and economic infrastructure, ensuring citizen security, and expanding access to digital public services.
