Meeting with the head of the National Agency for Food Safety of the Republic of Moldova within the project «Cross-border cooperation framework»
Today, 07 March 2014, representatives of the Institute for Project Development and Expertise (IDEP) had a meeting with Mr. Ion Sula, General Manager of the National Agency for Food Safety of Moldova (hereinafter ANSA). The meeting was also attended by Mr. Andrei Balan, Head of the Border Coordination Department of the Agency.
The purpose of today’s meeting was to inform and exchange views on the active participation of ANSA representatives in the cross-border cooperation framework across the Ukraine-Moldova cross-border cooperation project.
D. Ion Ion Sula showed interest in the project, motivated by the acceleration of the process of fluidization and sanitary control and not only on the Ukraine-Moldova customs section, especially at the Tudora crossing point.
In this direction, ANSA has already developed a comprehensive project in line with EU requirements, to be implemented in 2014-2015. There are other issues from ANSA, where solutions will be found at both governmental and associative levels. The concrete actions are to be identified following the discussions that will be held between the interested parties in the project, both in Ukraine and Moldova.
Today’s discussion ended with a strong acceptance from the Moldovan National Food Safety Agency’s leadership to take an active part in all meetings aimed at implementing the project presented today.
