Moldova’s parliament is progressing with a USD 106 mln initiative to enhance its road infrastructure using Western financing, which also aims to facilitate Ukraine’s grain exports through the EU’s Solidarity Lanes initiative. The project, pending full parliamentary approval, will be partially funded by a USD 100 mln loan from the IBRD/IDA and additional EU grants. It focuses on improving transit efficiency at Moldova’s border with Romania, vital since the war’s onset for transporting Ukrainian goods.
