In its conclusions of 21-22 March 2024, the European Council reaffirmed its commitment to provide all relevant support to the Republic of Moldova in addressing the challenges it faces as a consequence of Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, and to strengthen the country’s resilience, security and stability in the face of destabilising activities by Russia and its proxies.
Þvingunaraðgerðir ESB voru fyrst kynntar í apríl 2023 að beiðni lýðveldisins Moldóvu í því skyni að beina sjónum að einstaklingum sem bera ábyrgð á að styðja eða framkvæma aðgerðir sem grafa undan eða ógna fullveldi þess og sjálfstæði, svo og lýðræði landsins, réttarríkið, stöðugleika eða öryggi.
Efforts to destabilise Moldova have noticeably increased since the beginning of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, and represent a direct threat to the stability and security of the external borders of the EU.
The EU remains unwavering in its support for the Republic of Moldova and its peace, resilience, security, stability, and economic growth in the face of destabilising activities by external actors.
