It will include the implementation of a heightened-readiness regime when a threat is identified and an emergency regime when a large-scale crisis arises. This is provided for in the government-approved Regulation on the implementation of a framework of coordinated measures to ensure the stability of the Moldovan market and respond to emergencies, as well as on cooperation with the European Commission. The document provides for the creation of a Working Group on Emergency Situations and Market Stability in Moldova, which will include representatives from 12 government agencies and will be headed by the State Secretary of the Ministry of Economic Development and Digitalization. A central liaison office will also be established to coordinate the exchange of information with the European Commission, EU countries, and relevant international organizations. The product information center operating under the Ministry of Economic Development and Digitalization will serve as a single point of contact for citizens, consumers, workers, and entrepreneurs during a market crisis. Under a state of heightened readiness, authorities will be able to monitor supply chains for critically important goods and services, as well as production capacity and inventories, while economic operators will be able to voluntarily provide relevant information. Under the emergency regime, measures are envisaged to maintain the free movement of goods, services, and workers, the mobilization of state and strategic reserves, the expansion or reorientation of production capacity, the creation of new production facilities, and the provision of raw materials and a skilled workforce to enterprises. In the event of a serious and prolonged shortage, the European Commission will be able to issue priority requests to Moldovan enterprises for the production or supply of necessary goods. Moldova will also be able to participate in joint procurement with EU member states, stress tests, exercises, and crisis scenario simulations. If a shortage affects the domestic market, the government, through the Central Liaison Office, will notify the European Commission of the required quantities of products and will be able to participate in their coordinated distribution. Until Moldova joins the EU, these measures will be implemented through the urgent adoption of national regulations; after accession, EU regulations and their implementing acts will apply directly. The mechanism will cover crises caused by natural disasters, threats to public health, economic shocks, and security issues. The government resolution will take effect in 12 months. // 16.09.2026 — InfoMarket.
