On August 27, the Republic of Moldova celebrates the 16th anniversary of its independence. On this occasion, the news agency Info-Prim Neo carried out a series of interviews through which it intended to outline the present image of Moldova as perceived by representatives of a number of social categories and groups. We considered that the image that Moldova and its people have aboard is also important. After publishing the interviews one after the other during ten days, we are able to present a generalizing picture, gathering together all the viewpoints we got. The picture we obtained can be considered cognitive or even instructive, even if a number of representatives of certain categories of people did not answer our invitation. Below you can find the relevant viewpoints of people that are truly representative of the historical period through which Moldovan goes: - [Vasile Tarlev,] Prime Minister of Moldova; - [Alexandru Culiuc,] Public Policy doctoral student at the US Harvard University; - [Valeriu Munteanu,] a newly-elected, very young mayor of a village located in the centre of Moldova; - [Writer Andrei Vartic,] one of the supporters of the movement of resistance during the Moscow Putsch of 19 – 21 August 1991.
