Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of democratic progress in Moldova.

A more stable, secure and prosperous Moldova is important for the stability of the European neighbourhood. Moldova has made some progress on implementing the reforms required under the Association Agreement with the EU. But substantial political and economic issues remain to be addressed. This can only be achieved through constructive dialogue among all political forces in the country, which takes into account the expectations of the people of Moldova.
