Their visit takes place ahead of the referendum on the future relations between the Republic of Moldova and the European Union. As the Republic of Moldova prepares for this historic decision for the country's future, the Northern European and Baltic countries strongly support the right of all Moldovan citizens to make a free and independent choice. In the face of intensifying disinformation campaigns, the foreign ministers of the Baltic Sea region and Northern Europe will visit various regions of the Republic of Moldova to share their countries' experience with European integration and answer questions from attendees about what EU integration means for them.
