Summary/Abstract: On 13th of December 2012, the Prime Minister of Moldova Vlad Filat, and the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Catherine Ashton, signed in Brussels signed the Framework Agreement on the participation of the Republic of Moldova in the Europe¬an Union missions of crisis management. The agreement is part of the complex dialogue between the two sides and after its signing the Republic of Moldova will connect to foreign and security policy of the European Union, becoming an active par¬ticipant of the XXI century world and contributing to international security. The increasing role of the European Union in international security management, with the consolidation of security and de¬fense policy and conducting crisis management missions in dif¬ferent regions of the world, together with the Republic of Moldova participation in some of these missions, entitles us to expect the European Union participation in a new peacekeeping formula in the Security Zone in the east of the Republic of Moldova.
