Moldova has successfully withstood hybrid threats and challenges and continues to advance its European integration agenda, Deputy Prime Minister for European Integration Cristina Gherasimov stated during a meeting in Brussels with Peter Wagner, head of the European Commission’s Foreign Policy Instruments Service (FPI).
The officials focused their discussions on Moldova’s achievements in the EU accession process and on future priorities to strengthen the country’s resilience.
“We discussed our achievements at home so far and our future priorities in the European journey. We reviewed how Moldova has faced all challenges and hybrid threats, and how we can continue to rely on FPI’s support to strengthen resilience, which is essential to completing reforms on the European agenda,” Gherasimov said.
During her working visit to Brussels, Gherasimov held additional meetings with EU officials. She and Gert Jan Koopman, Director-General of the Directorate General for Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations (DG NEAR), discussed the latest developments on Moldova’s European agenda and assessed the country’s readiness to open accession negotiations.
At the same time, Gherasimov met with European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos to review the conclusions of the 2025 Enlargement Report, which commended Moldova for its achievements and steady progress in justice, energy, education, digitalization, and regional development.
