Foreign relations of Moldova, Foreign policy headquarters at Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Chișinău, Moldova.
The Foreign Ministry in Chișinău is the central institution that manages Moldova's relationships with other countries and international organizations. The agency coordinates trade agreements, security pacts, and cooperation with European partners.
After independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, Moldova became an independent player in international relations and built institutions to manage its diplomatic ties. The country increasingly turned toward European partners and multilateral organizations.
The diplomatic corps maintains relationships with 150 countries through embassies, consulates, and permanent missions, representing Moldovan interests across five continents.
Visitors can contact the ministry to learn about diplomatic services and international agreements that shape Moldova's relationships. The institution provides consular support for Moldavans abroad and facilitates connections between local and foreign authorities.
The country maintains a policy of permanent neutrality that prohibits stationing foreign military forces on its territory while sustaining diplomatic ties with many nations. This neutrality has guided the entire strategy of Moldova's foreign policy for decades.
