Key policy developments in education, training and employment - Moldova 2024
Over the last 3 years, the government, under the leadership of the pro-European Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS), has set out a reform agenda and built strong ties with Europe. The presidential elections in October and November 2024, re-electing Maia Sandu as president and approving the vote for the EU accession referendum, confirmed Moldova's pro-European trajectory. However, the results were closer than expected, and the next parliamentary elections in July 2025 could force a coalition government, which may adopt a less enthusiastic pro-European stance. Following the decision to grant Moldova candidate status on 23 June 2022, the country has been subject to a Russian hybrid war aiming at creating an energy crisis and political unrest.
