Sandu noted that Moldova, subject to a number of conditions, can become a member of the EU.

“The sooner we raise the standard of living, the sooner we will have a chance to join <...>, this is our goal,” the President of Moldova stressed.

Earlier, the Speaker of the Moldovan Parliament, leader of the ruling Action and Solidarity party, Igor Grosu, said that Moldova is currently at the final stage of fulfilling the conditions of the European Commission to start negotiations on the country’s accession to the EU.

Sandu signed an application for Moldova’s accession to the European Union last spring. At the summit in Brussels the EU heads of state and government approved the granting of the candidate status to Moldova.
