The State Chancellery is expanding its team to advance more rapidly in the process of European Union accession and to implement the reforms it has committed to. In this context, an increase of 56 new positions has been approved, TRIBUNA reports.

The decision comes amid growing responsibilities related to accession negotiations, implementation of the Growth Plan, and the Reform Agenda. Recently, the Republic of Moldova received a new financial tranche of 189 million euros for the implementation of 24 reforms. The country’s progress has been positively noted at the European level, with Moldova being highlighted as a model of high performance.

“We have an enormous amount of work, and for that we need people. Some ask why new, additional positions are needed. Precisely for this reason — to continue being a model of performance and to deliver results. There are things, reforms, processes that Moldova has not had in its ‘job description’ for 30 years — now that we want to become a European state, we need people to help us build it,” said the Government’s Secretary General, Alexei Buzu.

The new positions will be focused on key areas such as European integration, reform monitoring, and management of EU funds. Dedicated structures will also be created to track reform implementation and report progress to the European Commission.

The measure will enable better coordination between institutions and more efficient implementation of projects, ensuring that results are felt more quickly in citizens’ daily lives.
