Președinția Republicii Moldova

Dear Commissioner Kos, dear Marta, Excellencies, dear partners, friends, It is a great pleasure to see so many friends of Moldova here tonight. Each of you, in your own way, has helped us face the many challenges of recent years — and still move forward on our European path. On behalf of the people of Moldova, thank you for standing with us through difficult times.

Your Excellencies, President Macron, President Mahama, Prime Minister Pashinyan, Distinguished guests, dear friends, It is an honour to speak here today — at a forum that reminds us that peace begins with truth, and that truth itself must be defended.

Dear citizens, Honourable Members of Parliament, Ladies and Gentlemen, We stand at the beginning of a new journey — in a newly elected Parliament to which the citizens have entrusted the fate of the country for the next four years and, above all, the mission of preserving peace in Moldova.
