The inauguration of President-elect Maia Sandu will take place at the Palace of the Republic on December 24. Owing to the pandemic, the event will be held in a restricted format, with limited participation. The details were provided by Maia Sandu in a news conference, IPN reports.

“There is a law saying how the inauguration is staged and who should be invited. In accordance with this law, we will invite representatives of a number of state institutions. We are trying to identify a formula to reduce the number or to invite only representatives from each institution so as to obey the law and also the restrictions imposed because of the pandemic,” stated the President-elect. The event could be watched online.

Asked about the visits planned to other countries, Maia Sandu said the first visit will be probably paid to Kiev, Ukraine, in January. She cannot say exactly as the protocol discussions with the Ukrainian side are not yet over.

During the first two weeks of her inauguration, the President of Romania Klaus Iohannis will make a visit to Chisinau.
