Why do we need free trade with the EU?

The Association Agreement undoubtedly marks a new, higher qualitative level in the bilateral relations between our country and the European Union. It will allow the European market to open up more widely to Moldovan products, will entail a broad process of modernising state institutions and, eventually, will help improve the population's well-being.

This infographic analyses how the provisions of the DCFTA will contribute to the growth of Moldovan exports and debunks a number of myths related to this subject.
