The Republic of Moldova participates for the first time in the meeting of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs from the member countries of the North Atlantic Alliance

Today, in Bucharest, the meeting of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs from the member countries of the North Atlantic Alliance is taking place. The Republic of Moldova also participated in the event, for the first time.

This is the first time that a NATO event takes place in a state on the Eastern Flank, after the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.

The meeting of foreign ministers from NATO member states is the first event of this type organised in Romania since the neighbouring country joined the Alliance in 2004.

Along with the heads of diplomacy from the 30 member states, the Secretary General of NATO and the other senior political and military officials of the Alliance, the Foreign Ministers of Finland and Sweden will participate in the Bucharest Meeting, as states invited to join the organisation. The Ministers of Foreign Affairs from the Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, Georgia and Bosnia and Herzegovina will also participate in the meeting.

Two working sessions are scheduled for today, including one with the participation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, as a NATO partner.
