The document contains 60 articles and sets out the circumstances under which a state of war may be declared, the procedure for its declaration and the powers of state institutions. In the event of armed aggression, a state of war will be declared by decree of the President of the Republic of Moldova, with Parliament being informed and convened.

The draft also provides for the possibility of implementing special measures. These may relate to defence and mobilisation, critical infrastructure, the continuity of public authority and essential services, the financial and economic system, public order, the protection of the population, the movement of persons and goods, communications and cyber security, requisitioning, access to goods and services of strict necessity, labour relations, the judiciary and enforcement proceedings. In the event of a state of war, additional measures are provided for in relation to the aggressor state and, where applicable, its associated entities.

Citizens abroad who are subject to mobilisation obligations and have been informed of their duty to report for duty will be required to take the necessary steps to return to the country.

At the same time, the draft legislation sets out safeguards regarding respect for fundamental rights, access to justice and redress for any harm caused by the measures implemented.
