SOFIA – The unequivocal results of the parliamentary elections in Moldova further confirm the country’s European future, which Bulgaria firmly and consistently supports, stated the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) on the social network “X”.

The commitment of Moldovan society to the European Union (EU) and democratic values, clearly expressed in the elections on Sunday and in the EU referendum last October, will allow Moldova to take a worthy and proud place in our European family, added the MFA.

Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov congratulated the President of Moldova Maia Sandu on the results of the elections in the country in a post on the platform “X”. Heartfelt congratulations to President Maia Sandu for her decisive victory, wrote Zhelyazkov. Moldova has clearly and firmly chosen its European path. Bulgaria will continue to support our friends in this important process towards a common European future, stated Zhelyazkov.

The results of the elections in Moldova show strong support in the country for its accession to the EU. This was stated by Moldovan President Maia Sandu at a press conference after her pro-European party won the parliamentary elections on Sunday. I am glad that our path to the EU is guaranteed. I truly want Moldovans to decide what the future of Moldova should be. I want Moldova to be a free and democratic country, said Sandu.

The voter turnout of 52.21% is the highest ever recorded in parliamentary elections in Moldova. The pro-European Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS), led by Maia Sandu, has a majority and wins over 50% of the votes in the elections for the 101st local parliament, according to the results with 99.91% of the protocols processed, reported the Central Election Commission.
