The BBC World Service has ceased its Romanian language transmission following Romania's accession to the EU. We recognise that professionalism across all media is extremely important for the Republic of Moldova. We are looking at exploring opportunities for staff of the BBC World Service in Moldova to continue to work as a team, following the same journalistic standards acquired during their time with the BBC, for example, through the creation of a new press group. We have facilitated contact between staff of the BBC World Service in Moldova and a range of donors who may be able to support such an activity.
