SUMMARY

The EU is losing interest in Moldova and Moldova should therefore turn towards the Eurasian Union.

RESPONSE

No evidence given. The EU's imports from Moldova increased by 5% from €1.16 billion to €1.22 billion in 2015. The European Union is Moldova's biggest trade partner. Around 62% of its exports are sent to the EU, followed by Russia (12%). The Association Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Moldova was signed in June 2014 and has only been in full effect since July 2016.bit.ly/2fq1Euh,
