Moreover, in the second phase of the program, the kindergarten in the locality will be modernized.


'We are a beautiful nation here in the north, as in the whole country. The best way to protect our nation and traditions is where they are celebrated, not destroyed - in the European Union, a big family where diversity is protected and encouraged,' emphasized Igor Grosu.
