<\/p>\n<p>2. underlines the importance of the EU and Moldova working together to contribute to stability, security and prosperity in the region and on the European continent as a whole and to prevent the emergence of new dividing lines; <\/p>\n<p>3. welcomes the adoption of the EU-Moldova Action Plan; emphasises the importance of the Plan for reinforcing EU-Moldova relations and for underpinning political and economic reform in Moldova;

<\/p>\n<p>\nRule of law <\/p>\n<p>11. notes that the rule of law is an essential precondition for closer relations between the European Union and Moldova and stresses therefore that the strengthening of the relevant principles and effectiveness of institutions guaranteeing the rule of law is of the utmost importance;
