EU Commission: Assistance for Moldova isn’t conditional on the IMF deal, yet reforms are key
The European Commission maintains close cooperation with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and supports ongoing dialogue between the IMF and the Republic of Moldova.

However, he emphasized that reforms and improvements in macroeconomic policies remain essential for the country's progress.
