Summary/Abstract: This article presents the course of economic and political cooperation between the Republic of Moldova (RM) and the European Union over the past 20 years. In the first half of the 90s, relations between Moldova and the EU were both established and strengthened through the implementation of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement. Another manifestation of Moldova’s pro-European policy was its 2001 membership in the Stability Pact for Southeastern Europe. After the eastward EU enlargement in 2004 and 2007, Moldova began to play a role in EU foreign policy. After Moldova declared its support for Europe, the country was included in the European Neighbourhood Policy, and since 2009 has been covered by the Eastern Partnership. In January of 2010 Moldova started negotiations with the EU aimed at concluding a new agreement to replace the expiring Partnership and Cooperation Agreement. In addition to political co-operation a programme of economic cooperation between the EU and RM was also introduced.
