Detailed explanation

Understanding the adopted text

The European Parliament assesses the progress of the Republic of Moldova in the EU accession process. The adopted text analyzes the state of negotiations and reforms needed for integration. This process is crucial in the context of external pressures and the country's modernization efforts.

Context and objectives

After obtaining candidate country status in June 2022, Moldova started accession negotiations in June 2024. The Association Agreement remains the basis for cooperation, and the main objective is gradual alignment with the EU acquis (body of EU law).

Key measures

  • Support for the bilateral analytical examination process for all negotiation groups
  • Strengthening of the rule of law and governance reforms
  • Building institutional capacity for implementing the EU acquis
  • Combating hybrid threats and disinformation
  • Developing partnership with civil society and independent media

Timeline and implementation

The analytical examination process should be completed by the end of 2025. The parliamentary elections in September 2025 will be crucial for the continuation of the process. The EU provides financial and technical support through the Reform and Growth Facility.

Impact for citizens and stakeholders

The accession process benefits citizens through strengthened democratic institutions and improved living conditions. Implementing reforms will contribute to fighting corruption and economic growth. It is important that all interested parties are involved in this process.
