For Moldova we need a small, secure state data centre for public services. Use EU and Romanian capacity for heavy AI. Don't build a giant we cannot power.
Romania's grid operator says AI data centres could add "hundreds or thousands of MW" of demand by 2030. The flagship: a €5B Black Sea AI Gigafactory near Cernavodă, needing 1.5 GW.

The same week, 100+ groups in 15 European countries protested for a moratorium on large data centres. Energy, water, land. Ireland and Amsterdam already put limits in place.

Both are true. AI needs compute. Communities pay the cost. The question is not "data centres yes or no". It is: what size, where, and who benefits.

I was thinking who really pays for Moldova's digital security?

G7 and Ukraine. Together in protecting life, advancing peace efforts, and protecting Euro-Atlantic security order.

Moldova is leaping towards EU membership. Those efforts have not gone unnoticed across our continent. It was a great honour to address the Moldovan Parliament today. Joining the EU is a national project for all Moldovans. We will not stop supporting Moldova as this dream is becoming reality. Because we can only address the challenges of peace, freedom, security and democracy, when all Europeans work together.

În Power Grid, regiunea legată de restul hărții printr-un singur nod plătește scump și depinde de un singur jucător. Așa a fost Moldova mult timp: Cuciurgan, din stânga Nistrului, de care depindea tot sistemul. Pe harta din noiembrie 2026, Moldova primește mai multe legături 👏🏼

This is the way.
Today we launched the Vulcănești–Chișinău power line, linking Moldova to Romania and the European grid. For decades, Moscow used energy to blackmail us. No more: Moldova buys zero Russian gas, and two more power lines to Romania are on the way. Thanks to all who made it happen.

Resilience now covers the whole society: energy, information, cyber, morale. It is not only walls and terrain.
Being unconquerable is in your own hands. The good fighters of old first put themselves beyond the possibility of defeat, and then waited for an opportunity of defeating the enemy.

Atacurile cibernetice sunt o problemă de securitate națională. Asta nu înseamnă că renunțăm la digitalizare. Dimpotrivă, digitalizarea înseamnă eficiență, dar trebuie să fie sigură. Soluția stă în trei lucruri de bază: Sisteme noi moderne, reguli clare și educație digitală.

Outcomes instead of servers.
Moldova does not need another AI strategy. It needs a way to buy AI. A ministry can tender for software licences. It cannot simply buy 10M AI tokens. That gap is costing us security. 🧵

Moldova already has the Law 131/2015 that allows framework agreements with direct award, MCloud and EuroHPC membership + FAIMA antenna, free supercomputer access for AI startups

My proposal is a Moldova AI Compute Gateway with one multi-vendor, pay-per-use contract with a cap, one national gateway with budgets and logs, data levels where classified data stays local, compute vouchers for educators and startups.

This is our way.
I am pleased that the @EU_Commission's report reflects Moldova's steady progress: four clusters opened this year, laws aligned with the EU acquis, rule of law reforms advanced. Moldova has met the conditions to open the last two. We count on member states to match our commitment.

Schools desire “pure” education without AI shortcuts. Google desires a future where Search is AI. By bundling them, Google forces the choice: accept the new reality or live without the old one.
