The European Commission and Moldova held their first high-level meeting on digital connectivity in Chișinău on November 9 and 10. The talks focused on building stronger links between Europe and Central Asia via the Black Sea region, the South Caucasus and Türkiye. Moldova’s economic development and digitalisation ministry co-hosted the meeting.

The Commission said the platform brings together technology, expertise, standards and financing to support the proposed links. It ties the work to the EU’s wider Middle Corridor plans. The announcement sets out the cooperation plan without announcing an operating network.
