Moldova and Sweden will deepen cooperation in green energy, economics, security, digitalization, and strengthening resilience to hybrid threats
This was discussed during a meeting between Prime Minister Alexandru Munteanu and Swedish Ambassador Petra Lärke. The meeting focused on new areas of Moldovan-Swedish cooperation, Moldova's European agenda, the implementation of the Growth Plan, and Sweden's support in attracting investment and implementing key reforms. The Prime Minister emphasized that Sweden is one of Moldova's most important development partners, with the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency implementing numerous projects. The head of government also noted Sweden's support for overcoming challenges in the energy sector. For example, in 2024, Sweden allocated €8.7 million to the Energy Vulnerability Reduction Fund. This has enabled the government to assist the most vulnerable households by partially covering their energy bills. Energy support continues this year – thanks to a €15 million grant from Sweden, 57 apartment buildings in Chisinau will be insulated and made energy efficient. Meanwhile, in October, the Ministry of Economic Development and Digitalization of Moldova and the Swedish National Trade Council signed a Memorandum on Strengthening cooperation in the European integration process. According to the document, the two institutions will collaborate to facilitate access of Moldovan goods and services to the single European market, which for entrepreneurs means clearer procedures and reduced bureaucracy when exporting to Europe. The officials also discussed deepening cooperation in the areas of green energy, economics, security, digitalization, and strengthening resilience to hybrid threats. //25.11.2025 – InfoMarket.
