Paris Memorandum

The reasons for Moldova’s inclusion in the international “blacklist” of the Paris Memorandum on Maritime Security have become known. The parliament voiced cases of drug trafficking, explosions and fires, incidents with weapons and other serious violations on Moldovan-flagged ships, Logos Press reported.

Moldova has been trying for several years to get off the “black list” of the Paris Memorandum on Maritime Security, but due to staff “starvation” and low salaries at the Maritime Agency, its advancement in the ranking has stalled, Logos Press reports.
