"In a historic moment for Moldova, every vote counted, including the votes of those who lived through this land’s greatest changes. People who saw the past wished for a better future. Elderly people who, with dignity, clarity of vision, and confidence, went to the polls, choosing a different road—a road to the EU.
Because they lived through difficult times, they did not give up hope. They chose the stability, rights, and freedoms that the European journey offers. They voted for a more prosperous country for their children and grandchildren because they wanted them all home, not just for the holidays.
Today, generations are united in the dream of a European Moldova because the future belongs to us all.
Our decision, our future!"
