Prime Minister Vasile Tofan made this announcement following a meeting in Chisinau with EU Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos. He noted that the European Union is once again supporting the citizens of Moldova, and EU Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos announced that the EU will allocate 30 million euros—more than half a billion lei—to our country for the "Ajutor la contor" ("Help with the Meter") program. This money will go directly to people to help them pay their bills this winter. "We need to support people while also keeping the budget deficit under control. That is why we are actively working with external partners to find additional resources so that the burden this winter falls as little as possible on families and the budget. "I thank Commissioner Marta Kos and the European Union for this concrete support. We are continuing our work, and I hope to announce other similar measures soon," said Vasile Tofan. The European Union Delegation in our country noted that during her meeting with the prime minister, the European Commissioner for Enlargement discussed Moldova's progress in implementing reforms and accelerating investments under the EU's €1.9 billion Economic Growth Plan, aimed at supporting the country's economic development through the end of 2027. The European Commissioner emphasized that this support must yield tangible results for the people: better roads, modern public services, and new economic opportunities for the citizens of Moldova. // 09.11.2026 — InfoMarket.
