Moldovan President Maia Sandu accepted the government's resignation on Friday and said she would hold consultations with parliamentary factions on nominating a new prime minister.

"In spite of unprecedented challenges, the country was governed responsibly, with a lot of attention and dedicated work. We have stability, peace and development - where others wanted war and bankruptcy," Sandu wrote on Facebook.

"Following the legal procedures, following the resignation of the Prime Minister, I will have consultations with the parliamentary fractions and, afterwards, I will nominate a candidate for the post of Prime Minister of the Republic of Moldova."
