Romania and Moldova signed a border cooperation treaty yesterday. The treaty was signed by Romanian Foreign Affairs Minister Teodor Baconschi and Moldovan Prime Minister Vlad Filat in Bucharest on the sidelines of the regional Danube Summit.

European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso announced the plans to sign the treaty earlier on Monday. The agreement has been described as a technical document that will cover all issues related to the common border.

The upcoming signing is considered to be a significant step forward in their relations, although it is not yet clear what exactly the treaty contains.
