The President of Moldova Nicolae Timofti decided not to accept the invitation to take part in the military parade staged in the Red Square of Moscow on May 9. This year it is celebrated the 70th anniversary of the victory over fascism. The information was confirmed for IPN by the President’s spokesman Vlad Turcanu.

He noted that the head of state received the invitation last autumn and now decided to decline it. During his three years in office, Nicolae Timofti never attended the military parade in Moscow.
