Summary/Abstract: As part of the "Support Platform for the Republic of Moldova", at the first donors' conference held in April 2022 in Berlin, important financial support was announced in the form of loans and grants from various governments, European and international financial institutions, for mitigating the negative economic and social impact that Moldova suffered as a result of the regional security crisis. This July, the second edition of the conference took place in Bucharest, where the emphasis was placed on the consolidation of energy independence and assistance for reforms. In this context, messages of concern appeared in the public space, both sincere and manipulative, regarding the country's ability to assume new foreign debts. This article examines whether such fears are justified and disproves the main unfounded perceptions that exist on this subject. We also propose a series of recommendations for the Government and creditors aimed at ensuring judicious contracting and management of external loans.
