(8)On 24 April 2023, the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2023/855note, establishing a civilian European Union Partnership Mission in Moldova under the common security and defence policy in order to provide strategic advice and operational support in the areas of crisis management and hybrid threats. Since 2021, the Union has also provided consistent support through the European Peace Facility, established by Council Decision (CFSP) 2021/509note, to strengthen Moldova’s capacities in the military and defence area. The signing of the EU-Moldova Security and Defence Partnership on 21 May 2024 streamlined the structure of the Union’s cooperation with Moldova in key areas of peace, security, and defence. Furthermore, the Moldova Growth Plan, adopted by the Commission on 10 October 2024, aims to support Moldova’s socioeconomic reforms and enhance its access to the internal market, with specific reforms expected in the area of cybersecurity governance.
