President of Romania Nicusor Dan stated in a TV broadcast that Romania will continue to support Moldova on all fronts—diplomatically, economically, and in its European path—emphasizing the deep cultural and historical ties between the two countries.
“Romania as a state will support Moldova as a state. This is categorical, because we are united by this common culture,” Dan said.
However, the Romanian president warned about possible risks if a pro-Russian government takes power in Chisinau.
“A pro-Russian government can create nuisances, just as it has done in the past 35 years. From the perspective of the war in Ukraine, this could mean additional Russian troops in Transnistria and pressure on Ukraine, affecting the joint European path of the two states,” Dan said.

Nicușor Dan stressed that Romania’s security directly depends on regional stability and Moldova’s European trajectory.
“We are in a much more dynamic and dangerous world than 15 years ago. You can’t live without a system of alliances, and Ukraine is the key to Romania’s security, being a neighbor of Russia in the context of the war in Ukraine,” the president emphasized.
He highlighted that the current period represents the best stage of relations between Chisinau and Bucharest, both diplomatically and through investments and concrete projects.
The president of Romania visited Moldova on August 31, where he participated in events dedicated to the Romanian language.
