Parliament adopted its first-reading position on a regulation granting temporary trade-liberalisation measures for products from the Republic of Moldova, supplementing the trade concessions in the EU/Euratom/Moldova Association Agreement. The measures are temporary and supplement existing concessions applicable to Moldovan products under the Association Agreement. Parliament calls on the Commission to refer the matter to it again if the Commission replaces, substantially amends or intends to substantially amend its proposal. Parliament's position corresponds to the final legislative act, Regulation (EU) 2024/1501, as an agreement was reached between Parliament and Council.
