Fifty six Moldovans might be detached to Greece to extinguish fires

Chisinau, 22 August /MOLDPRES/ - Moldova on the days to come might detach 56 firemen to help extinguish the devastating fires faced by Greece. The concerned subject was discussed by President Maia Sandu at a meeting with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotákis in Athens.   

„I discussed with Prime Minister Mitsotakis the economic cooperation and the attraction of Greek investments, including in the context of the process of reconstruction of the cities from southern Ukraine. I told the Greek PM that our country is ready to detach, on the next days, 56 firemen to help extinguish the devastating fires faced by Greece, just as we did this in the previous years as well. We are in solidarity with the friendly countries, when needed,’’ the Moldovan president said.  

The head of state appreciated the Greek authorities’ decision to open an embassy in Chisinau and invited Prime Minister Mitsotakis to visit Moldova. ‘’Not in the least, I thanked the Greek partners for supporting Moldova’s accession to EU. The discussion organized on 21 August by the Greek PM with the countries of the Western Balkans, Ukraine and Moldova – states which aspire to become EU members, is a positive signal that we have strong friends in the European Union, who are with us on our European integration way,’’ President Maia Sandu said.
