Brussels looks at the Republic of Moldova with moderate optimism, opinions
The experience of stealing the billion after the Republic of Moldova was declared the success story of the Eastern Partnership determines European officials to look at our country with moderate optimism. The European financial assistance has been unblocked, and the money will be granted only conditionally, in terms of reform that we will be able to implement. These are the opinions of political commentators expressed during a TV show, IPN notes.
According to political commentators, the first visit of Prime Minister Gavrilița to Brussels, through the multitude of meetings held, demonstrates that the European Union saw the Republic of Moldova as a credible partner, able to turn into electoral promises in reality. However, according to experts, in order to benefit from European funds, the government will have to comply with strict conditions.
“There have been such visits to Brussels, but now this context is different, at the helm of the Republic of Moldova we have a pro-European party, a party built up to this stage, on the principle of integrity, transparency, which wants to reform the Republic of Moldova. 4 priorities were set: justice reform and the fight against corruption, pandemic, economic recovery and institutional strengthening. The Republic of Moldova will receive support for these priorities, but the aid is conditional. Simply put, the arrival of European money will depend on how reforms are carried out within the country. Because I have had success stories, now the private Brussels Republic of Moldova with a moderate, realistic optimism “, said the political commentator Ion Tăbârță during the show” Punctul pe Azi “from TVR Moldova.
According to journalist Anatolie Golea, the trust that the Republic of Moldova enjoys abroad is the biggest asset of the current government, and the potential of international opening must be exploited, for the benefit of citizens.
“It is a visit full of symbolism. For the time being, we cannot talk about palpable results of the new governments in the field of economy, social, although the increase of pensions and social payments is expected from October 1, anyway the first and most obvious results are on the foreign political field. We are witnessing the relaunch of relations on the Chisinau-Brussels dimension. The President of Germany, a very important country, also comes to Chisinau, later comes the President of Slovenia, another important visit, because Slovenia will take over the presidency of the European Union in 2022 “, said the journalist Anatolie Golea.
Today, the President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, is in the Republic of Moldova. The official will be greeted at the Presidency with military honors, then President Maia Sandu and his German counterpart will make statements for attendance, lay flowers at the Monument of Stephen the Great and Saint and participate in the inauguration of the Moldovan-German business form.
