Maia Sandu took the oath of office today, officially becoming Moldova’s President. The inauguration ceremony occurred at the Palace of the Republic in Chisinau.

Sandu became Moldova’s first female president and the sixth in history. She was also the first directly elected president to secure two mandates.

Moldova’s Constitution requires the president to take the oath before Parliament and the Constitutional Court no later than 45 days after the election. The four-year presidential mandate begins on the day the oath is taken.
