The approved EU growth plan for Moldova amounts to 1.9 billion (euros) and supports the modernisation of schools, hospitals and local enterprises.

Omissions

• The €1.9 billion is a ceiling for the 2025-2027 period, disbursed in tranches conditional on the implementation of Moldova's Reform Agenda, and comprises a mix of grants and concessional loans.
• The initial Commission announcement of the Growth Plan on 10 October 2024 was described as €1.8 billion in some Commission communications (press release IP/24/5124), before the finalised legal proposal and the approved Regulation settled on up to €1.9 billion; the 'approved' figure cited by the MEP matches the final agreed amount.
• The claim describes the plan's objectives (modernisation of schools, hospitals and local enterprises) qualitatively; the official sources confirm the plan's aim to boost socio-economic development and accelerate reforms, rather than listing those exact sectors in the quoted passages.
