“In order to move towards EU accession and prosper afterwards, it is necessary to finalize important reforms that we have already started. Justice reform – so that all Moldovans feel that justice is finally being established and the law is the same for everyone. Energy security – important for citizens and for business. Education reform – so that the new generations will be competitive, able to cope with the technological and economic transformations of the future. Administrative-territorial reform – so that local authorities can use European funds for the development of territories,” said Maia Sandu.
She thanked Alexandru Munteanu for assuming “responsibility in a difficult period for our country, as well as for the whole region”.
“Starting from today, we need a government that will be more focused on development and will complete the transformation of Moldova into a modern European state,” the head of state said.
According to the president, Moldova needs “bold measures” to ensure economic development, attract investments, increase competitiveness and productivity.
