A brutal 10h attack on Ukraine. This is not the language of diplomacy, nor of a country claiming to negotiate peace. On their way to kill civilians, Russian drones again violated Moldovan airspace, forcing its temporary closure. We condemn these attacks and stand with Ukraine.

Europe’s stability depends on Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty, and security being fully guaranteed. Unity and determination from all of Ukraine’s partners are essential to ensure a peace that will endure.

Russia’s horrible attack on Ukrainian cities — including Ternopil, where civilians were killed — shows once again the Kremlin’s contempt for humanity. These atrocities cannot become routine and demand a united international response to stop Russia’s aggression.

Grateful to Commissioner @MartaKos for recognising Moldova’s progress in today’s enlargement report and for confirming that the EU’s door is open — with a real chance for new members to join by the end of this Commission’s mandate.

Useful exchange with @kajakallas on Moldova’s EU accession and our joint efforts to safeguard democracy against Russia’s interference. Continued EU support is vital for strengthening Moldova’s resilience and advancing institutional reforms.

Pleased to speak at @euronews Enlargement Summit. Moldova’s EU accession would strengthen EU’s and Ukraine’s security. The Moldovan people have shown their commitment through consistent democratic choices and ambitious reforms — progress reflected in today’s enlargement report.

Thank you for recognising our progress, @EU_Commission. Moldova has shown that even in the hardest times, Moldova delivers — and that the European Union can count on us.
Moldova has made the biggest progress on its accession path. It significantly deepened cooperation with the EU despite the continuous hybrid threats and attempts to destabilise the country and its EU course.

Spoke at the @ParisPeaceForum about the need to defend information integrity. Information manipulation is a weapon used by Russia to divide and weaken nations. Europe must act together — united and resilient — to protect truth, peace, democracy, and our way of life.

Today we begin a new chapter for Moldova’s future. I addressed the newly elected Parliament: its mission is to protect peace, serve the people with integrity, and lead our country to its European home. Moldova chose peace and Europe — now we must deliver.
