U.S. assistance is helping Moldova become a democratic and economically prosperous state, anchored in Europe, secure within its internationally recognized borders, and governed by effective, transparent, and accountable institutions. The United States is achieving these goals by providing assistance to strengthen democratic institutions, especially the justice sector, and to promote a more dynamic civil society and media environment; improve the business-regulatory environment, enhance private sector competitiveness, develop export-oriented, high-value agriculture; and help Moldova take advantage of the trade benefits of its Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) with the European Union. These efforts will open new markets for Moldovan exports and foster continued integration with Europe. U.S. programs will maintain a focus on democratic reform, anti-corruption initiatives, and increased transparency.

- Trafficking in Persons Report - MOLDOVA
The Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report is the U.S. Government’s principal diplomatic tool to engage foreign governments on human trafficking. It is also the world’s most comprehensive resource of governmental anti-human trafficking efforts and reflects the U.S. Government’s commitment to global leadership on this key human rights and law enforcement issue. It represents an updated, global look at the nature and scope of trafficking in persons and the broad range of government actions to confront and eliminate it. The U.S. Government uses the TIP Report to engage foreign governments in dialogues to advance anti-trafficking reforms and to combat trafficking and to target resources on prevention, protection and prosecution programs. Worldwide, the report is used by international organizations, foreign governments, and nongovernmental organizations alike as a tool to examine where resources are most needed. Freeing victims, preventing trafficking, and bringing traffickers to justice are the ultimate goals of the report and of the U.S Government’s anti-human trafficking policy.
