Joint Statement by the European Commission and High Representative Josep Borrell on the second round of presidential elections in Moldova
The EU warmly congratulates Maia Sandu (pictured) on her re-election for a second term as president of the Republic of Moldova.
We commend the Moldovan authorities for the successful conduct of the election, despite unprecedented interference by Russia, including with vote-buying schemes and disinformation. These hybrid attempts have sought to undermine the country’s democratic institutions and its EU path.
The European Union supports Moldova’s security and resilience including through the European Peace Facility and the European Union Partnership Mission. Moldova was the first country to conclude a Security and Defence Partnership with the EU.
The recent referendum has reaffirmed the Moldovan people’s commitment to the European path and to further strengthening our close ties. The EU will continue to work with the President and the Moldovan authorities to promote further reforms and enhance the country’s stability and prosperity on its EU path, including through the recently announced Growth Plan for Moldova.
