The negotiation process is highly beneficial as it accelerates Moldova’s integration into the European Union. People will experience tangible benefits throughout this process, not just upon accession. Siegfried Muresan, Chairman of the European Parliament Delegation for Relations with Moldova, emphasized this viewpoint.
Muresan welcomed the agreement of EU ambassadors on the accession negotiation framework with Moldova and Ukraine.
“The fact that we have reached an agreement on the negotiating framework just two years after granting candidate country status underscores the significance of Moldova and Ukraine for the entire European Union,” he stated.
“As Chair of the European Parliament Delegation for relations with the Republic of Moldova, I ensured the adoption of this framework by the end of June to facilitate scheduling the first intergovernmental conference before autumn, enabling us to begin work on negotiating chapters. The European Parliament fully supports Moldova in its accession process,” Siegfried Muresan emphasized.
