Expert: The Republic of Moldova could receive anti-aircraft defense systems following the Vilnius Summit
The participation of the Republic of Moldova in the NATO summit in Vilnius proves that our country is in the sights of the North Atlantic Alliance, and will receive the necessary support to counter the threats from the Russian Federation, commented for Radio Moldova, the expert from Bucharest, Laurentiu Plesca. According to the analyst, it is not excluded that our country could receive air defense systems, previously requested by the authorities.
We will get more political and military support through the European Instrument for Peace, in which the Republic of Moldova is also a part. Of course, Maia Sandu has reiterated several times that the Republic of Moldova needs an air shield. Many efforts are being made in this direction. Of course, we also need more training for our soldiers, because the army of the Republic of Moldova has been neglected all these years. At the same time, we expect support for the hybrid aggressions of the Russian Federation directed against the Republic of Moldova", said Laurentiu Pleșca.
We remind you that at the NATO Summit in Vilnius, the Republic of Moldova will be represented by the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs and European Integration Nicu Popescu. During the meeting of the foreign ministers of the NATO states and partner states, Nicu Popescu will give a speech in which he will present the vision of our country's authorities on the developments related to regional security, the measures that the Republic of Moldova is undertaking to counter the challenges to the Republic's security Moldova, as well as about ways to deepen cooperation between the Republic of Moldova and NATO. Also, Minister Nicu Popescu will have meetings with several counterparts and officials from NATO member countries and partner countries, reads a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
