The European Union intends to act swiftly on Moldova's bid to join the bloc, according to EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas. However, no specific timeline has been established for the start of formal accession negotiations. Moldova, a former Soviet republic sandwiched between Ukraine and Romania, has been pursuing closer ties with the European Union amid ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region. The country gained EU candidate status in 2022 alongside Ukraine, marking a significant step in its pro-European trajectory despite facing pressure from Russia.
