Although we marked 25 years of Independence, it’s but recently that Moldova started to steer independently its destiny and started to look into future with more confidence. Moldova wants much more from its future. In 2014, we signed the Association Agreement with the EU and we count much on this partner, which has become our main economic and trade partner.

We are determined to develop Moldova in many other directions. This country, in conditions of political stability and correct mobilization of its potential, will record steady economic growth in the years to come.

All of us, the governmental team, the parliamentary team are involved in an ample reforming process conducting to the steady development of the country. It’s going to lead to less red tape, and strengthening the state agencies’ capacity to manage their sectors.

All these reforms have been already felt in the social and economic sectors.

We are looking for friends and partners. We can and we want to offer potential investors development and cooperation opportunities in Moldova. I trust Moldova’s prosperous future and I would be glad if this future is made with the contribution and investments of our Monaco guests," Vlad Plahotniuc stated, at the business forum.
