Cooperation between the Republic of Moldova and Romania in the field of home affairs, support for institutional modernization and measures to facilitate border crossings were discussed by Moldova’s Minister of Internal Affairs Daniella Misail-Nichitin and Romania’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Internal Affairs Marian Neacșu. The meeting took place during the official visit to Chișinău by Romanian Prime Minister Luca-Alexandru Niculescu.
Discussions focused on Romania’s continued support for equipping the institutions under Moldovan Ministry of Internal Affairs, staff training and the exchange of experience and expertise. These efforts are particularly important for advancing reforms under Chapter 24 of the EU accession process and bringing institutions in line with European standards.
Another key topic was the extension of coordinated border control in both directions at the Moldovan-Romanian border, with particular attention to the Ungheni – Ungheni border crossing point. The measure is intended to facilitate the movement of people and goods while ensuring effective border control.
Romania remains an important partner in the Republic of Moldova’s efforts to modernize its internal affairs institutions and advance towards EU membership. Romania’s experience and support help strengthen institutional capacities and prepare the Ministry of Internal Affairs’ structures to respond to current security challenges.
Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to continuing joint projects and further strengthening cooperation for the benefit of public safety and the partnership between the Republic of Moldova and Romania.
