Moldovan President Maia Sandu convened the Supreme Security Council on Monday to assess international energy market volatility and reinforce national resilience ahead of the upcoming winter heating season.

The high-level session is scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m. Council members will examine external shocks across regional markets and evaluate contingency mechanisms designed to absorb potential supply disruptions.

**Winter readiness under scrutiny**

According to the Presidential Administration, the agenda focuses on bolstering infrastructure resilience and mitigating household vulnerabilities before temperatures drop. 

Following the meeting, Sandu is scheduled to deliver a press briefing at the presidential headquarters at 3:30 p.m. 

Moldova remains under an official early-warning state of alert in the energy sector through the end of September as authorities coordinate preventive security reserves.
