The resolution states that Moldova has the right to request joining the EU, recalling that the Association Agreement (AA) is not the final goal of the relations between Moldova and the EU.<\/p>\n

The resolution \u201cpoints out in this connection that, pursuant to Article 49 of the TEU, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine \u2013 like any other European state \u2013 have a European perspective and may apply to become members of the Union provided that they adhere to the principles of democracy, respect fundamental freedoms and human and minority rights and ensure the rule of law.\u201d<\/p>\n
