Moldova's president travels to Ukraine to meet Zelensky

MADRID, 27 Jun. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The President of Moldova, Maia Sandu, arrived in Ukraine on Monday as part of a visit that will take her to the cities of Borodianka, Bucha and Irpin and during which she plans to meet with her Ukrainian counterpart, Volodimir Zelensky.

In a statement, the Moldovan Presidency has confirmed that the Head of State has already arrived in kyiv, the Ukrainian capital. Sandu announced on Friday that she would pay a visit to the country, although she did not elaborate.

His visit comes shortly after the European Council decided to grant Moldova and Ukraine the status of candidate for accession to the European Union in a historic decision that is part of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The war in the neighboring country has led Moldova to declare a state of emergency due to the increase in insecurity, especially in the separatist region of Transnistria.

On June 23, the Parliament of Moldova renewed the state of emergency with the vote in favor of 59 deputies given the danger that the war poses for the energy and food sector, mainly.
