Dear @sandumaiamd you represent the inspiring people of Moldova, standing up for our shared European values. True EPP leadership. Moldova feels European. Moldova is European. The people of Moldova are shaping their 🇲🇩🇪🇺 EU future. 👏 Congratulations on the #EuropeanOrderOfMerit.

Thank you, Maia Sandu, for sharing your insights on the situation in Moldova. Under your leadership, your country is in strong hands and continues on its path towards the EU. The awarding of the European Order of Merit today is further proof of your outstanding dedication to the European project. Your leadership in reforming Moldova according to the principles of the rule of law is an EPP success story. Congratulations @sandumaiamd! "Responding to Russia’s destabilisation efforts is not an easy task, but you are a champion in countering Russian disinformation in practice. You provide determination, resilience and confidence to the people of Moldova. Continue this fight, and we will continue to support you", says @AndrzejHalicki.

Honoured to receive the European Order of Merit today. But the merit belongs to the Moldovan people — who chose Europe at the ballot box, defended that choice under pressure, and do the hard, daily work of reform. My plea to the EU: reward this merit. Help us move forward.

Moldovan President Maia Sandu received the European Order of Merit at the European Parliament for her contribution to European integration. Roberta Metsola reaffirmed support for Moldova’s EU path: “If we invest in Moldova today, we are investing in the Europe of tomorrow.”
