Moldovan parliament speaker comments on draft concerning Moldova's union with Romania, tacitly adopted in Bucharest
Parliament Speaker Igor Grosu has described as a provocation the draft law on the union of Romania with Moldova, which was tacitly adopted by the Chamber of Deputies from Bucharest on June 24. The official said that such initiatives do not contribute to bringing the two states closer and can compromise the idea of union.
Asked about the reaction of the Moldovan authorities, Grosu said that he did not notice panic, but rather smiles following the appearance of the draft.
“I called some colleagues and said: ‘Tell me, please, when we unite, it will just pass us by. Are they even prepared?’ I didn’t really see panic. I saw more smiles on people’s faces. But it was a provocation. It is a provocation, obviously,” Igor Grosu said.
The parliament speaker drew attention to the initiators of the draft and said that the move aimed to discredit an idea that is sensitive for a part of the society.
“Look at who the signatory is. She is among the signatories and those who sing praises to Putin. Union is not decreed. And if you want to compromise an idea, you come up with such initiatives,” Grosu said.
The legislative proposal on the union of Romania with Moldova was tacitly adopted by the Chamber of Deputies from Bucharest after the debate and voting deadline expired. The initiative provides for the start of negotiations with the Moldovan authorities on the union of the two states and is to be examined by the Romanian Senate, which is the decision-making body.
