We want to have inclusive growth that will benefit all the citizens of my country, in all the localities and the type of support that the EU has been providing including through this project is going to help those who need it most, and of course the project that is going to help us implement the association agreement. We are very grateful that we have been able with your support, with your trust to unblock the financial assistance.” said Prime Minister Sandu
