The Romanian Government reports in a press release that talks between the two prime ministers will focus on an analysis of the latest developments in strategic cooperation projects, with special emphasis on energy interconnection and infrastructure, both of which have a major impact on Moldova's rapprochement to the European Union.

In the context of the joint strategic objective of Moldova's accession to the European Union, other priorities of the bilateral agenda meant to support Moldova's European journey will be agreed upon.
