".
I voted in favour of the joint resolution on the parliamentary elections in Moldova.
Within the scope of the European Neighbourhood Policy, Moldova continues to pursue the reforms in the Action Plan, which was drawn up to promote and consolidate democracy, respect for the values of the rule of law and respect for human and civil rights. The political and institutional reforms will offer the country gradual integration into the EU’s policies and programmes.
Accordingly, I wish to restate my belief that the forthcoming elections will be an important yardstick for measuring the Moldovan authorities’ commitment to democratic standards. I also note with concern that the situation as regards access to information in Moldova has yet to be resolved. Parliament therefore expects from the elections a clear sign that the Moldovan Government will ensure that the parliamentary elections will be free and fair, both on election day itself and throughout the election campaign.
I am sure that my country, which has a large Moldovan community, will work with the Moldovan diplomatic authorities to find ways of helping the highest possible number of Moldovan immigrants to have access to the ballot box."@en1
