The European Political Community (EPC) Summit which Moldova hosted on 1 June was one of the most important high level meetings of our time. Moldova was indeed seen to be at the heart of Europe. The UK Prime Minister has written to Madam President, congratulating and thanking her for the immaculate organisation of the Summit, and looking forward to welcoming her to the EPC Summit in o...ur country in 2024.
Prime Minister Sunakโs presence and active participation in the Summit was a demonstration of UKโs commitment to European security (as the biggest European supporter of Ukraineโs efforts to repel Russiaโs invasion), and to Moldova. At the Summit, PM Sunak announced that the UK plans to start negotiating a migrant returns agreement with the Republic of Moldova. The purpose of such returns agreements, which we already have in place with multiple countries, is to facilitate the return of those in our country ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, with no right to remain in the UK.
The vast majority of Moldovan residents in the UK are there legally. Nobody who is in the UK legally โ Moldovan or of any other nationality - need fear a returns agreement. We are very proud to host many tens of thousands of Moldovans in all parts of the United Kingdom. The vast majority of them are formally settled, and are making a fantastic contribution to our country.
As President Sandu has said, the Moldovan government does not support illegal migration. Nor does the UK government and any such agreement will be of benefit to both the UK and Moldova in our efforts to address illegal migration. But legal migration breathes life into our respective economies and we welcome that.

Summitul Comunitฤศii Politice Europene (EPC), pe care l-a gฤzduit Republica Moldova pe 1 iunie, a fost unul dintre cele mai importante evenimente la nivel รฎnalt din ultima vreme. Moldova a fost รฎntr-adevฤr vฤzutฤ ca inima Europei. Prim-ministrul Regatului Unit Rishi Sunak i-a scris doamnei Preศedinte Maia Sandu, mulศumindu-i ศi felicitรขnd-o pentru organizarea impecabilฤ a Summitului. Acesta a invitat-o la Summit-ul EPC, care se va desfฤศura รฎn ศara noastrฤ รฎn 2024.
Prezenศa Prim-ministrului Sunak ศi participarea sa activฤ รฎn cadrul Summitului a demonstrat angajamentul Regatului Unit faศฤ de securitatea europeanฤ (รฎn calitate de cel mai mare susศinฤtor european al eforturilor Ucrainei de a respinge invazia Rusฤ) ศi faศฤ de Republica Moldova. La Summit, Premierul Sunak a anunศat cฤ Marea Britanie intenศioneazฤ sฤ รฎnceapฤ negocierea cu Republica Moldova asupra unui acord privind รฎntoarcerea imigranศilor. Scopul unor astfel de acorduri, pe care le avem deja semnate cu mai multe ศฤri, este de a facilita รฎntoarcerea celor care se aflฤ รฎn ศara noastrฤ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ศi care nu au dreptul sฤ rฤmรขnฤ รฎn Marea Britanie.
Marea majoritate a rezidenศilor moldoveni รฎn Marea Britanie se aflฤ acolo legal. Nici o persoanฤ care se aflฤ legal รฎn Regatul Unit โ moldovean, sau de o altฤ naศionalitate โ nu trebuie sฤ-i fie fricฤ de un astfel de acord. Suntem foarte mรขndri sฤ gฤzduim zeci de mii de moldoveni รฎn tot Regatul Unit. Marea majoritate a rezidenศilor sunt stabiliศi oficial ศi aduc o contribuศie semnificativฤ ศฤrii noastre.
Dupฤ cum a spus Preศedinta Sandu, guvernul Republicii Moldova nu sprijinฤ migraศia ilegalฤ. Nici guvernul Regatului Unit n-o sprijinฤ, iar un astfel de acord va fi util atรขt pentru Regatul Unit, cรขt ศi pentru Republica Moldova. Migraศia legalฤ dezvoltฤ economia ambelor ศฤri ศi noi susศinem acest lucru.
