Moldova’s EU candidacy is a historic moment.
Yet environment is one of the most demanding areas of 🇪🇺 legislation.
The sooner we start working closely together the easier the process will be!
Good progress with the Minister of Environment, Ms Iordanov!

#EUForests are suffering in the EU and the world.
For a sustainable bioeconomy to thrive, we need to make sure they are biodiverse, resilient and monitor them better.
The only business model that can survive is sustainable business.

Healthy forests are our strongest allies against climate change & biodiversity loss.
They are also a source of building materials, and a driver for jobs and growth.
We need to carefully manage our forests.
