Romania congratulates the citizens of the Republic of Moldova for the cast vote and welcomes the victory won by the reformist and pro-European parties in the snap parliamentary elections of July 11. “It is a victory of democracy that marks a decisive step towards an irreversible European path of the Republic of Moldova, which Romania has permanently supported and will continue to support without reservation,” Romania’s Embassy in Moldova says in a press release that is quoted by IPN.

The Embassy notes the citizens of the Republic of Moldova by their vote clearly expressed their support for the strengthening of the rule of law, acceleration and optimization of the fight against corruption and building of a solid, really European democracy that would work for their benefit.

The efforts made to advance the European course, especially by implementing the reforms stipulated in the Association Agreement signed with the European Union, remain the only guarantee of the development of the Republic of Moldova and its prosperity for all its citizens.

The press release says Romania is hopeful that a Government that will support the pro-European approach and will continue the reform processes in a sustained way will be formed swiftly. As until now, Romania will be near the Republic of Moldova on this road based on the Bilateral Strategic Partnership for the European Integration of the Republic of Moldova and the common language, culture and history, including as regards the continuation of the projects for the direct benefit and in support of the European agenda of the Republic of Moldova.
