President Maia Sandu said that the best way to celebrate 106 years since the Union of Bessarabia with Romania is to highlight the ties between the people from the two banks of the Prut. According to her, Romania helps Moldova continuously and unconditionally, IPN reports.

“The best way to celebrate 106 years since the Union of Bessarabia with Romania is to highlight the ties between the people from both banks of the Prut, to thank Romania for its constant support aimed at improving the lives of all citizens of the Republic of Moldova, and to continue working to become a developed and free state, alongside Romania, in the big European family,” stated President Sandu.

On the occasion of the 106th anniversary of the Union of Bessarabia with Romania, a number of Romanian officials came with messages. Among them are Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu and Senate President Nicolae Ciucă. Adrian Dupu, State Secretary of the Department for Relations with the Republic of Moldova, also disseminated a message. “The National Liberal Party has always stood by Moldova. Over and over again, we, the Liberals, were here whenever we were needed. We helped and will continue to support the Republic of Moldova’s European path,” said the chairman of PNL Diaspora Republic of Moldova.

On March 27, 1918, the People’s Council voted for the Union of the Moldavian Democratic Republic (Bessarabia) with the Kingdom of Romania. That historical act triggered the Great Union that ended with the Great National Assembly of Alba Iulia on December 1, 1918, when the Romanians from Transylvania, Banat, Maramures and Crișana decided, in their turn, to unite with the country, the event attesting the establishment of the modern Romanian state.

On March 27, 2017, the President of Romania Klaus Iohannis signed the decree on the promulgation of the Law to declare March 27, the Day of Union of Bessarabia with Romania, a national holiday.
