Why didn’t Romania unite with the Republic of Moldova after 1990? Petre Roman: We were about to do it, but the mining totally discredited us. The one in 1991 was devastating. “
Romania’s unification with the Republic of Moldova could have been achieved in the first years after the fall of the communist regime, on the model of Germany, but the mining in 1990 and 1991 shattered this dream, said former Prime Minister Petre Roman, Marius Tuca’s guest on the special edition “War . from Ukraine ”, broadcast live by Gândul.
Asked why he did not make a plan for the unification of Romania with the Republic of Moldova when he was the first prime minister of post-communist Romania, Petre Roman replied: to do them. down by violence… ”.
The former prime minister specified that he made an integration plan that could have been implemented in 1992-1993 and thus the union between Romania and the Republic of Moldova would have been possible.
“We have made a plan for economic, social and cultural integration. If the plan I agreed with Valeriu Muravschi, who was then prime minister (of the Republic of Moldova – no.), If he goes to the end, yes. It could have been done in 1992-1993 on the model of Germany “, said Petre Roman, exclusively for Gândul.
He explained that all of Romania’s credibility in Europe was lost when violent miners came to the capital.
“It simply came to our notice then. What credibility did we have in the West? After the miners came, Helmut Kohl said: “From this moment on, we have frozen relations with Romania.” Who can’t guarantee something? We went off any radar “, Roman added.
“The 1991 mining was devastating. The 1990 mining produced some horrible images, but we were able to get over it. We made some huge efforts to make it more credible and we succeeded, but the other one took us back to where we left off “, concluded the former prime minister.
