This structured framework ensures that every aspect of integration is addressed in a systematic way. Moldova begins its negotiation process with fundamental reforms, such as strengthening the rule of law and combating corruption. Progress in these areas determines the overall pace of EU integration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The 2025 EU Enlargement Report shows that the Republic of Moldova has made significant progress among EU candidate countries. In 2023, during the first assessment, seven chapters were at an early stage and only two were at a moderate level of preparedness. By 2025, no chapters remain at an early stage, and around one third have reached a moderate or higher level of readiness. Two thirds of the chapters have recorded substantial progress over the past year.

Beyond the figures, the relationship with the European Union has become the main driver of the country\u2019s modernisation, a process that has accelerated significantly since obtaining candidate status in 2022. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>The turning point came in June 2024, with the official opening of accession negotiations. This moment transformed the Association Agreement and the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) \u2013 which until then had represented our main framework of cooperation \u2013 into the necessary springboard for full alignment with European standards. Today, we are in a stage where our legislation, institutions, and economy are gradually aligning with European values and norms. Moldova\u2019s economy: Under the sign of Europe <\/p>\n<p>The partnership with the EU has reshaped our country\u2019s trade map. The European Union is not just a partner, but the main export market for Moldovan producers, who today send over 65% of total exports to Member States. This openness, supported by tariff elimination and facilitated access to the Single Market, has given our farmers and entrepreneurs the opportunity to compete at European level, raising standards of quality and efficiency. Beyond trade, the EU\u2019s commitment to Moldova has translated into unprecedented financial and strategic support. <\/p>\n<p>Since 2021, over \u20ac2.9 billion has been directed to vital infrastructure projects, energy security, and institutional reforms. Whether we are talking about better roads, electricity interconnections that help end our energy isolation, or consistent support in managing regional crises, these investments lay the foundations of a resilient and European Moldova. Today, the Republic of Moldova is no longer just a neighbour of the European Union, but an active partner that is steadily progressing, day by day, through the necessary stages to become a full member of the European family.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Photo_1_Kayak-canoe-club-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>Photo_1_Kayak canoe club (2)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/52089275556_30ed0d8682_o-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>52089275556_30ed0d8682_o<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/348577657_774160070832324_4574698605749293301_n-1.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>348577657_774160070832324_4574698605749293301_n (1)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2023_02_13-UE_YA-1-EuropeCafe-364-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>2023_02_13 &#8211; UE_YA 1 EuropeCafe 364<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><p>\n        <a href=\"\/en\/the-eu-and-republic-of-moldova-relationships-development-by-june-2026\/\">Find out more about the EU support<\/a>\n    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The relationship between the Republic of Moldova and the European Union has long surpassed the stage of diplomatic cooperation, becoming today a complex ecosystem of opportunities that directly impacts citizens\u2019 lives and the country\u2019s development. From freedom of movement to collective security and participation in elite European programmes, Moldova has already become deeply integrated into the EU\u2019s mechanisms.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2014, Moldovan citizens have benefited from a visa-free regime for travel within the Schengen area, a freedom that has facilitated cultural, educational, and human exchanges between Moldova and the rest of Europe. This openness has been complemented by accelerated institutional integration. In 2024, Moldova took a historic step by becoming the first non-EU country to sign a Security and Defence Partnership with the European Union, thereby strengthening its resilience in the face of regional challenges. In this context, EU support provided through the European Peace Facility has exceeded \u20ac137 million, confirming the EU\u2019s commitment to Moldova\u2019s stability.<\/p>\n<p>Our partnership is built on projects with visible impact. Moldova has become a pioneer as the first non-EU country to join the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF). This access enables the attraction of essential European funding for the modernisation of national infrastructure, including roads and energy networks. At the same time, accession to the EU Civil Protection Mechanism has integrated the country into the European disaster and risk management network, providing Moldova with access to assistance and expertise in crisis situations.<\/p>\n<p>Integration into the European family is most clearly visible through access to EU programmes, which open doors for researchers, young people, entrepreneurs, and public institutions:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Education and Solidarity: Erasmus+ and the European Solidarity Corps have become reference platforms for Moldovan youth, offering them educational and volunteering experiences at European standards.\n <\/p>\n<p> \u2022 Innovation and Health: Through participation in programmes such as Horizon Europe, EU4Health, and Digital Europe, Moldova benefits from access to the most advanced research and digital solutions in the Union.\n <\/p>\n<p> \u2022 Environment and Administration: Programmes such as Fiscalis, LIFE, and the EU Macro-Regional Strategy for the Danube Region provide the framework for reforming public administration and protecting natural heritage, aligning local standards with those of a full EU member.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Moldova is not merely \u201cobserving\u201d the European process, but actively participating in it, turning every programme and partnership into a steady step towards the status of European Union member state.\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/2023_02_13-UE_YA-1-EuropeCafe-150-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>2023_02_13 &#8211; UE_YA 1 EuropeCafe 150<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Enhancing-the-electoral-legal-framework-and-assessment-of-its-implementation-during-2023-local-elections.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>Enhancing the electoral legal framework and assessment of its implementation during 2023 local elections<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/53987340560_70759817a5_o-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>53987340560_70759817a5_o<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/53708471444_29bf24bd78_k.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>53708471444_29bf24bd78_k<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<h1>EU Enlargement Package<\/h1>\n<div>\n<p>The European project is undergoing a historic stage of revitalisation, and the 2025 Enlargement Package \u2013 adopted by the European Commission on 4 November 2025 \u2013 confirms that the accession of new states is no longer merely an aspiration, but a strategic, achievable and active objective.<\/p>\n<p>More than two decades after the \u201cBig Bang Enlargement\u201d of 2004, the European Union has reaffirmed its firm commitment to the integration of ten partner states: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Georgia, Ukraine, T\u00fcrkiye, and, of course, the Republic of Moldova. This dynamic highlights the shift from a theoretical vision to a merit-based process, where each country\u2019s progress is rigorously assessed year by year.<\/p>\n<p>The comprehensive 2025 assessment reconfirms that Moldova has maintained an upward trajectory, demonstrating its ability to implement complex structural reforms in a challenging regional context. This merit-based approach allows our country not only to tick off objectives, but also to align its institutional, economic, and legal standards with European norms, thereby accelerating the pace of the negotiations launched in the summer of 2024.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h1><b>Want to learn more about Moldova\u2019s progress?<\/b><\/h1>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accession to the European Union is a complex process, but each step brings the Republic of Moldova closer to integration into the European family.

Beyond the figures, the relationship with the European Union has become the main driver of the country\\u2019s modernisation, a process that has accelerated significantly since obtaining candidate status in 2022. <\\\/span><\\\/p>\\n\n\n<p>The turning point came in June 2024, with the official opening of accession negotiations. This moment transformed the Association Agreement and the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) \\u2013 which until then had represented our main framework of cooperation \\u2013 into the necessary springboard for full alignment with European standards. Today, we are in a stage where our legislation, institutions, and economy are gradually aligning with European values and norms. Moldova\\u2019s economy: Under the sign of Europe <\\\/p>The partnership with the EU has reshaped our country\\u2019s trade map. The European Union is not just a partner, but the main export market for Moldovan producers, who today send over 65% of total exports to Member States. This openness, supported by tariff elimination and facilitated access to the Single Market, has given our farmers and entrepreneurs the opportunity to compete at European level, raising standards of quality and efficiency. Beyond trade, the EU\\u2019s commitment to Moldova has translated into unprecedented financial and strategic support. <\\\/p>Since 2021, over \\u20ac2.9 billion has been directed to vital infrastructure projects, energy security, and institutional reforms. Whether we are talking about better roads, electricity interconnections that help end our energy isolation, or consistent support in managing regional crises, these investments lay the foundations of a resilient and European Moldova. Today, the Republic of Moldova is no longer just a neighbour of the European Union, but an active partner that is steadily progressing, day by day, through the necessary stages to become a full member of the European family.\\u00a0<\\\/p>\",\"margin\":\"default\",\"maxwidth\":\"2xlarge\"}}]},{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width_medium\":\"1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"slideshow\",\"props\":{\"link_style\":\"default\",\"link_text\":\"Read more\",\"margin\":\"default\",\"meta_align\":\"below-title\",\"meta_element\":\"div\",\"meta_style\":\"text-meta\",\"nav\":\"dotnav\",\"nav_align\":\"center\",\"nav_below\":true,\"nav_breakpoint\":\"s\",\"nav_position\":\"bottom-center\",\"nav_position_margin\":\"medium\",\"overlay_animation\":\"parallax\",\"overlay_position\":\"center-left\",\"show_content\":true,\"show_link\":true,\"show_meta\":true,\"show_thumbnail\":true,\"show_title\":false,\"slidenav\":\"\",\"slidenav_breakpoint\":\"s\",\"slidenav_margin\":\"medium\",\"slidenav_outside_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"slideshow_autoplay\":true,\"slideshow_autoplay_interval\":\"5\",\"slideshow_autoplay_pause\":false,\"slideshow_kenburns\":\"center-center\",\"slideshow_kenburns_duration\":\"3\",\"slideshow_max_height\":\"1500\",\"slideshow_min_height\":\"\",\"slideshow_velocity\":\"1.8\",\"thumbnav_height\":\"75\",\"thumbnav_svg_color\":\"emphasis\",\"thumbnav_width\":\"100\",\"title_element\":\"h3\",\"title_hover_style\":\"reset\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/Photo_1_Kayak-canoe-club-2-scaled.jpg\",\"title\":\"Photo_1_Kayak canoe club (2)\"}},{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/52089275556_30ed0d8682_o-scaled.jpg\",\"title\":\"52089275556_30ed0d8682_o\"}},{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/348577657_774160070832324_4574698605749293301_n-1.jpg\",\"title\":\"348577657_774160070832324_4574698605749293301_n (1)\"}},{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/2023_02_13-UE_YA-1-EuropeCafe-364-scaled.jpg\",\"title\":\"2023_02_13 - UE_YA 1 EuropeCafe 364\"}}]}]}]}]},{\"type\":\"section\",\"props\":{\"height\":\"pixels\",\"height_viewport\":300,\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/Ion-Ples.jpg\",\"image_effect\":\"fixed\",\"image_height\":900,\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"image_size\":\"cover\",\"image_width\":1800,\"style\":\"default\",\"title_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"title_position\":\"top-left\",\"title_rotation\":\"left\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width\":\"default\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"row\",\"children\":[{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"button\",\"props\":{\"grid_column_gap\":\"small\",\"grid_row_gap\":\"small\",\"margin\":\"default\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"button_item\",\"props\":{\"button_style\":\"primary\",\"content\":\"Find out more about the EU support\",\"dialog_layout\":\"modal\",\"dialog_offcanvas_flip\":true,\"icon_align\":\"left\",\"link\":\"en\\\/the-eu-and-republic-of-moldova-relationships-development-by-june-2026\\\/\",\"link_target\":\"blank\"}}]}]}]}]},{\"type\":\"section\",\"props\":{\"animation\":\"slide-left-small\",\"animation_delay\":\"100\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"style\":\"muted\",\"title_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"title_position\":\"top-left\",\"title_rotation\":\"left\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width\":\"xlarge\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"row\",\"props\":{\"layout\":\"1-2,1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width_medium\":\"1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"text\",\"props\":{\"column_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"content\":\"\n\n<p>\\n\\nThe relationship between the Republic of Moldova and the European Union has long surpassed the stage of diplomatic cooperation, becoming today a complex ecosystem of opportunities that directly impacts citizens\\u2019 lives and the country\\u2019s development. From freedom of movement to collective security and participation in elite European programmes, Moldova has already become deeply integrated into the EU\\u2019s mechanisms.\\n\\n <\\\/p>Since 2014, Moldovan citizens have benefited from a visa-free regime for travel within the Schengen area, a freedom that has facilitated cultural, educational, and human exchanges between Moldova and the rest of Europe. This openness has been complemented by accelerated institutional integration. In 2024, Moldova took a historic step by becoming the first non-EU country to sign a Security and Defence Partnership with the European Union, thereby strengthening its resilience in the face of regional challenges. In this context, EU support provided through the European Peace Facility has exceeded \\u20ac137 million, confirming the EU\\u2019s commitment to Moldova\\u2019s stability.\\n\\n <\\\/p>Our partnership is built on projects with visible impact. Moldova has become a pioneer as the first non-EU country to join the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF). This access enables the attraction of essential European funding for the modernisation of national infrastructure, including roads and energy networks. At the same time, accession to the EU Civil Protection Mechanism has integrated the country into the European disaster and risk management network, providing Moldova with access to assistance and expertise in crisis situations.\\n\\n <\\\/p>Integration into the European family is most clearly visible through access to EU programmes, which open doors for researchers, young people, entrepreneurs, and public institutions:\\n\\n <\\\/p>\\u2022 Education and Solidarity: Erasmus+ and the European Solidarity Corps have become reference platforms for Moldovan youth, offering them educational and volunteering experiences at European standards.\\n <\\\/p> \\u2022 Innovation and Health: Through participation in programmes such as Horizon Europe, EU4Health, and Digital Europe, Moldova benefits from access to the most advanced research and digital solutions in the Union.\\n <\\\/p> \\u2022 Environment and Administration: Programmes such as Fiscalis, LIFE, and the EU Macro-Regional Strategy for the Danube Region provide the framework for reforming public administration and protecting natural heritage, aligning local standards with those of a full EU member.\\n\\n <\\\/p>Today, Moldova is not merely \\u201cobserving\\u201d the European process, but actively participating in it, turning every programme and partnership into a steady step towards the status of European Union member state.\\n <\\\/p>\",\"margin\":\"default\",\"maxwidth\":\"2xlarge\"}}]},{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width_medium\":\"1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"slideshow\",\"props\":{\"link_style\":\"default\",\"link_text\":\"Read more\",\"margin\":\"default\",\"meta_align\":\"below-title\",\"meta_element\":\"div\",\"meta_style\":\"text-meta\",\"nav\":\"dotnav\",\"nav_align\":\"center\",\"nav_below\":true,\"nav_breakpoint\":\"s\",\"nav_position\":\"bottom-center\",\"nav_position_margin\":\"medium\",\"overlay_animation\":\"parallax\",\"overlay_position\":\"center-left\",\"show_content\":true,\"show_link\":true,\"show_meta\":true,\"show_thumbnail\":true,\"show_title\":false,\"slidenav\":\"\",\"slidenav_breakpoint\":\"s\",\"slidenav_margin\":\"medium\",\"slidenav_outside_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"slideshow_autoplay\":true,\"slideshow_autoplay_interval\":\"5\",\"slideshow_autoplay_pause\":false,\"slideshow_kenburns\":\"center-center\",\"slideshow_kenburns_duration\":\"3\",\"slideshow_min_height\":300,\"slideshow_velocity\":\"1.8\",\"thumbnav_height\":\"75\",\"thumbnav_svg_color\":\"emphasis\",\"thumbnav_width\":\"100\",\"title_element\":\"h3\",\"title_hover_style\":\"reset\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/2023_02_13-UE_YA-1-EuropeCafe-150-scaled.jpg\",\"title\":\"2023_02_13 - UE_YA 1 EuropeCafe 150\"}},{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/Enhancing-the-electoral-legal-framework-and-assessment-of-its-implementation-during-2023-local-elections.png\",\"title\":\"Enhancing the electoral legal framework and assessment of its implementation during 2023 local elections\"}},{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/53987340560_70759817a5_o-scaled.jpg\",\"title\":\"53987340560_70759817a5_o\"}},{\"type\":\"slideshow_item\",\"props\":{\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/53708471444_29bf24bd78_k.jpg\",\"title\":\"53708471444_29bf24bd78_k\"}}]}]}]}]},{\"type\":\"section\",\"props\":{\"animation\":\"slide-left-small\",\"image\":\"wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/01\\\/2M1A0621_saturated-scaled.jpg\",\"image_effect\":\"fixed\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"image_size\":\"cover\",\"style\":\"default\",\"text_color\":\"dark\",\"title_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"title_position\":\"top-left\",\"title_rotation\":\"left\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width\":\"expand\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"row\",\"children\":[{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"width_medium\":\"1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"panel\",\"props\":{\"block_align\":\"right\",\"content\":\"\n\n<p>\\n\\n\\n\\nThe European project is undergoing a historic stage of revitalisation, and the 2025 Enlargement Package \\u2013 adopted by the European Commission on 4 November 2025 \\u2013 confirms that the accession of new states is no longer merely an aspiration, but a strategic, achievable and active objective.\\n\\n<\\\/p>More than two decades after the \\u201cBig Bang Enlargement\\u201d of 2004, the European Union has reaffirmed its firm commitment to the integration of ten partner states: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Georgia, Ukraine, T\\u00fcrkiye, and, of course, the Republic of Moldova.
