Members of the European Parliament have praised Moldova’s progress towards EU membership, highlighting the country’s commitment to reforms despite ongoing interference from Russia, the Parliament said in a report adopted by the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
What Parliament is doing
The Committee on Foreign Affairs prepared and adopted a report assessing Moldova’s progress towards EU accession. In that report, MEPs commend Moldova for what the document calls an “exemplary commitment” to the reform process. The report also explicitly notes continued foreign interference led by Russia.
Why it matters
The Committee’s assessment signals strong parliamentary attention to Moldova’s EU path and frames Moscow’s actions as a persistent external factor affecting the country. By emphasising both Moldova’s reform efforts and the challenges posed by Russian-led interference, the Committee’s report seeks to reflect the political context in which accession-related reforms are being implemented.
What happens next
The document was prepared by the Committee on Foreign Affairs. The press release does not specify further procedural steps, dates for plenary debate or votes, or details on recommended actions. The Committee’s report will inform Parliament’s ongoing work on enlargement policy and any subsequent parliamentary decisions related to Moldova.
