"Moldova is one of the countries most affected by the current events [Russian war in Ukraine - ed.]. Czechia, like many other states, deepens cooperation with Moldova and supports its integration into the European Union," Jares said. The creation of the military attache position is the result of an agreement between the Czechian Prime Minister Petr Fiala and Moldovan President Maia Sandu.

About 30 Czech military attaches work in various Czech embassies. Background:

• At the end of July, the Parliament of Moldova supported the government's proposal to extend the state of emergency for another 60 days due to the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
• The state of emergency was first introduced in Moldova on 24 February 2022 due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Since then, the state of emergency in Moldova has been repeatedly extended.

  It is expected that it will remain in effect as long as the war continues in Ukraine.
