Ukraine, invaded by the Russian troops, and the neighboring Republic of Moldova (an ex-Soviet with a majority Romanian-speaking population) remain on the agenda of European decision-makers.
The Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu made his first foreign visit to Chișinău.
The opening of the accession negotiations of the Republic of Moldova to the EU is a priority of Romania's foreign policy.
Tens of thousands of people participated, at the call of President Maia Sandu, in a large pro-European demonstration in Chişinău.
