Hungary supports Moldova’s EU candidate status

During the talks, the parties reviewed the situation in Ukraine, with special regard to the refugee crisis; as both countries neighbour Ukraine, Moldova as well as Hungary are providing assistance for hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing the war.

Mr Orbán welcomed the Moldovan government’s plan to apply for EU candidate status. Hungary will support Moldova’s EU integration throughout the process leading to membership, the press chief reported.

He added that during their talks, Natalia Gavrilita and Viktor Orbán spoke about historical relations between the two countries in words of praise, and supported the further strengthening of bilateral economic and educational cooperation.
