Polish president backs Moldova's EU ambitions
Jun 22, 2021
Warsaw (Poland), June 22: President Andrzej Duda offered Poland's support for Moldova's European Union (EU) membership ambitions during Moldovan President Maia Sandu's first official visit here on Monday.
Warsaw would share its experiences in organizing local administrations and governments and combating corruption, Duda said at a joint press conference.
"We have much experience in those areas, and the changes that Poland has seen in the past 30 years have produced many positive results," he said. "I would like you to leave with the impression that Poland is a friendly nation."
Sandu said that Moldova was ready to cooperate with Poland on security matters, including cybersecurity. "Poland is an important source of security in the region," she said.
Sandu, who was elected president in late 2020, said that her country was also following the Three Seas Initiative, a Polish-led effort to create a partnership of central and eastern European nations.
"We think that Moldova's contribution to that initiative would add to the stability of the borders of the European Union," Sandu said.
