The AA-DCFTA negotiations Sample Clauses

The AA-DCFTA negotiations ex-ante trade-oriented conditionality (2010-14) As in the case of Georgia, Moldova’s negotiations of the AA/DCFTA were crucially shaped by the EU’s application of ex-ante conditionality on trade-related issues. The EU handed over ‘key recommendations’ which had to be addressed by Moldova prior to the launch of negotiations for a DCFTA (based upon a fact-finding mission conducted in Moldova in May-June 2010 - a few months after the talks for the AA started). The EU’s conditionality was pivotal in structuring the whole DCFTA preparation and negotiation process for two reasons. First, EU conditionality set the pace for Moldova’s legal approximation with the EU’s trade-related standards.

Moreover, the EU also formulated additional recommendations in these areas and others (such as trade statistics) with the view to facilitating the DCFTA negotiations. To the same end, the EU offered increased assistance under the EaP, with a view to building the capacities of those ministries that were identified as key institutions in preparation for the AA/DCFTA. Following the Armenian example, an EU High-Level Policy Advice Mission to the Republic of Moldova (funded by the EU and implemented by United Nations Development Programme) was deployed in 2010 to support the Government in the implementation of the EU integration-related reforms. A number of Twinning and Technical Assistance and Information Exchange instrument (TAIEX) projects focused on Moldova’s adoption and enactment of trade- related acquis. The overall priorities of EU assistance, however, were br...
