lpv:translated text	". Commissioner, Luxembourg Presidency, ladies and gentlemen, Moldova is the EU's least developed neighbour, and in addition to serious underdevelopment it also suffers from a number of other problems and serious burdens. In addition to being the least developed country in Europe, Moldova does not have control over the whole of its own territory. Its railway system is broken in two. Foreign military units are deployed on its territory against its will. Everything can be found there, including the worst forms of international crime and trafficking in weapons, drugs and human beings. The country has serious problems, but its people know how to live and survive in desperate economic circumstances as this is what they have to do. More than half the population is forced to survive on two dollars a day, and a fifth live on one dollar a day. If this is not a miracle, then there is no such thing as a miracle. For them there truly can be none. We must be, and are, in solidarity with them. We all nurture hope in the expectation of democratic and economic changes. There will be elections in Moldova on 6 March, the results of which could increase our mutual cooperation and bring Moldova closer to the European Union. Romania is becoming a member of the European Union, there have been great changes in Ukraine, and we hope that they will also succeed in their wishes and that the wheels of development and democracy will begin to turn faster in Moldova. I wish that the Ukrainian president had used his speech today to encourage our friends in Moldova, because the Ukrainian example has demonstrated that outside interference does not help and cannot stop history. We wish them success as well as new and better opportunities to make progress, and we look forward to working with them after the elections."@en1
