On his occasion, His Holiness Petru noted that by providing modern conditions for mothers and newborns, the Moldovan families are being encouraged. “We are glad that there are such people as Mister Plahotniuc and those who did so much work to have this hall renovated. Children who are the future of our country are born here,” he stated.

“The last time I was here, I promised we will transform this maternity hospital into a modern one and that we will adjust it to the European standards. Today this is a modern hospital and I feel proud that the delivery ward was modernized owing to the campaign “Revive Moldova”. This is how a really European institution should look and this is how Moldova can look in the near future – modernized, clean and nice. It can become so not in several days, but in several years and this is an achievable objective,” said Vlad Plahotniuc.
