CHISINAU, April 11 – RIA Novosti. The Commander of the National Army of Moldova, Brigadier General Eduard Okhladchuk, during a visit to Belgium, discussed cooperation with the Supreme Allied Commander of NATO Europe and the European Armed Forces Command Americans, General Christopher Cavoli, the Moldovan Ministry of Defense reported. “The two officials reviewed the cooperation between the Republic of Moldova and the North Atlantic Alliance in the field of defence, paying particular attention to the joint programs and initiatives implemented over the years, aimed at to transform the defense institution into a modern institution, corresponding to international standards”, reads a message published on the telegram channel of the Moldovan Ministry of Defense. It is noteworthy that Cavoli underlined the role of the Moldovan army in peacekeeping operations with colleagues from other states.” The commander said that the United States will continue to support the defense establishment of the Republic of Moldova in various areas of common interest in the framework of achieving the objectives of reforming the national army,” the Defense Ministry said. Earlier on Tuesday, the press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic reported that the neutrality of Moldova does not does not prevent us from establishing relations with NATO and other organizations and countries to strengthen security in the country and in the region. The Moldovan authorities have repeatedly stated that during negotiations and meetings with Western partners, including NATO, they will address the topic of strengthening and modernizing the country’s defense potential. In particular, the head of the Ministry of Defense of the republic, Anatoly Nosatiy, spoke about the need to create an air defense system, but the country no longer has funds for this. According to the constitution of Moldova, the republic has a neutral status, but since 1994 the country has been cooperating with NATO within the framework of an individual partnership plan. The alliance’s information center operates in the capital of Moldova. In December 2017, a NATO liaison office was opened in Chisinau. Opinion polls show that more than 60% of the Moldovan population opposes the country’s rapprochement with NATO.
