ADR Centru checked three sites in Ungheni: the market, the French Park and a 35-million-lei road to Plaiul Fagului

The Centru Regional Development Agency — the body through which the state spends money from the National Fund for Regional and Local Development — inspected three building sites in Ungheni district on 18 June. Alongside the already-known agri-food market and French Park, a third project surfaced: rebuilding the access road to the “Plaiul Fagului” reserve, worth about 35 million lei. Together it is tens of millions in public money — which the official statement no longer puts into figures.

Six European countries rehearsed flood rescue on the Prut, in Ungheni district

A major European civil-protection exercise hosted by Moldova, “MD–EU MODEX 2026”, ended on 18 June. More than 250 rescuers from six countries — Poland, Germany, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria and the Netherlands — spent three days working through realistic flood scenarios, one of the sites being the Prut river, in Ungheni district. The drill comes just a month after the Prut and local streams really did flood Cornova, Pîrlița and Vulpești.

How Ungheni’s libraries hold on in a district with ever fewer children

A donation of children's books, made by writer Elena Vizir to a library in Ungheni, looks like a small gesture. Set against the official figures, it touches a nerve: over two decades, the book stock of the district's libraries has thinned by a quarter — and yet people use them more than fifteen years ago. In a district losing its young people, a library full of children is no longer a banality, but news.

Seven councillors demand a new vote on the Măcărești–Ungheni merger that failed in council

The project under which the commune of Măcărești would merge with the municipality of Ungheni did not gather the required votes in the Communal Council on 16 June — even though, a few days earlier, a citizens' assembly had approved it. At the request of a group of councillors, the mayor convened an extraordinary session for 22 June, with a single item on the agenda. It is the first visible blockage in the cluster of localities the municipality of Ungheni is gathering around itself.

A home in Sculeni, part of a reform moving people out of institutions into the community

One of the eight community homes for people with severe intellectual disabilities in Moldova is in Sculeni, Ungheni district. It is part of a cross-border project funded by the European Union, which is modernising 12 social buildings, and in June the homes' staff were trained in ethics, person-centred care and crisis de-escalation. Behind it lies a quiet but profound reform: moving people out of large institutions into small homes in the community. It is advancing slowly — and that is why it is worth watching.

A woman took the oath of allegiance in Ungheni and became a citizen of Moldova

At the Ungheni District Council, in a solemn setting, with the national anthem, the district president confirmed the taking of the oath of allegiance by a new citizen of the Republic of Moldova — the exact legal moment at which someone becomes a citizen. Triunghi.md does not reveal her identity; but we use the occasion to explain a process that is rarely discussed: how, by which routes and for how many people Moldovan citizenship is acquired today — in a year when the numbers rose sharply.

Why the state now pays for HIV prevention among key groups in Ungheni

Needle exchange, HIV tests, counselling and tuberculosis screening — services that hundreds of people from key groups receive in Ungheni are now paid for from the prophylaxis fund of the National Health Insurance Company, not by foreign donors. Ungheni is named explicitly in a project won in February by the NGO Union for Equity and Health, part of a national package of 33 million lei for 2026–2028. A quiet but consequential shift: in a concentrated epidemic, prevention where the risk is highest protects everyone's health.

What the EU anti-corruption chapter changes for businesses in Ungheni

On 15 June 2026, Moldova opened the «Fundamentals cluster» with the European Union — the negotiating package that includes justice and the fight against corruption and that sets the pace for the whole accession. Eleven days later, the conversation is set to reach Ungheni too: a regional consultation on anti-corruption reforms and European integration, organised by the Ungheni branch of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry together with the Centre for the Analysis and Prevention of Corruption. For a border town, the stakes are not abstract — they are visible right at the Sculeni customs point.

In Ungheni, graduates take the stage in a district its young people are leaving

The Graduates' Ball returns to Ungheni on 18 June 2026, in Independence Square — a ceremony for the young people finishing high school, organised by the city hall together with the district council and the Education Directorate. Last year, the stage in the town centre gathered the graduates of all eight high schools in the district. Beyond the music and the diplomas, the event carries a stake the numbers state bluntly: Ungheni is losing its young people — for every class that climbs the stage, another has already left.
