EU WILL ALLOCATE 60 MILLION EUROS TO MOLDOVA TO OVERCOME GAS CRISIS

The European Union (EU) is making available 60 million euros for Moldova to help manage the current energy crisis. The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, wrote about this on social networks following a meeting with the Prime Minister of the Republic of Moldova, Natalia Gavrilita, who is on a visit to Brussels.

During the dialogue, the head of the European Commission "reiterated full support for Moldova." In this regard, she noted that the meeting of the Moldova-EU Association Council, which will take place on Thursday, October 28, "will help to further strengthen our cooperation."

A day earlier, the head of the European Commission also held a telephone conversation with the President of Moldova, Maia Sandu, during which the problem with natural gas supplies to Moldova was also discussed. Von der Leyen assured the President that the EU is considering additional measures to support Moldova in the current situation.
