AFD representatives announced this during a meeting with the State Secretary of the Moldovan Ministry of the Interior as part of their visit to our country, which is taking place from 28 to 30 September. The Agency’s experts will assess the existing capabilities of the Moldovan services, identify key needs and vulnerabilities, and prepare proposals for a future aid project.

In the coming days, the experts will hold meetings with representatives of relevant agencies and visit the IGSU Regional Search and Rescue Directorate No. 1, the Joint Dispatch Centre in Bălți and the 112 emergency service.

The Ministry of the Interior has stated that one of the priorities is to establish a more coordinated response system. This involves inter-agency cooperation, modern equipment and technologies, adapted infrastructure and secure communications.

Particular attention is to be paid to the operational capabilities of the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations and to the modernisation of the fleet of specialist vehicles. This should help to reduce response times and improve the services’ readiness to carry out rescue operations.

Following the mission, the AFD will identify the necessary investments and possible solutions for the coming years, taking into account the needs of local services. It is expected that the development of infrastructure and technical capabilities will enable a faster and more effective response to emergencies.
