China will adhere to the path of peaceful development, promote high-quality development and high-level opening-up, and contribute stability and new opportunities to the world through Chinese modernization. The Chinese side has always supported the Moldovan side in independently choosing its development path and policy orientation based on its national conditions, and regards the Moldovan side as an important cooperative partner in modernization process and the Belt and Road cooperation.

Bolea said, in recent years, Moldova-China relations have maintained a good momentum of development, with more political dialogues and great potential in various fields such as economy, trade, agriculture, energy, science and education. Moldova attaches importance to developing friendly cooperative relations with China. Currently, the PAS bears the responsibility of developing the national economy and is willing to expand pragmatic cooperation between the two sides. The Moldovan side welcomes Chinese companies to invest and start businesses in Moldova, so as to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, and contribute to the greater development of Moldova-China relations. The Moldovan side is willing to strengthen coordination on multilateral affairs with the Chinese side to promote regional peace and development.
