Minister of National Defence Mihnea Motoc sends thanks to Romanians, on the National Day, for the love shown to the army and to servicemen.
"I wish you, all Romanians, good health, prosperity and accomplishments. I thank you for the love and constant support you have shown for the army and servicemen. Our accomplishments would have not been possible without the support you so generously give. Many happy returns, Romania! Many happy returns, Romanians!," Motoc wrote on Facebook.
He emphasizes in his message that the National Day of Romania is the day of all Romanians, "of those who are here, at home, in these blessed places, or those taken by life and destiny across the borders, in all the corners of the world, but also of those who have been before us, our forefathers who've built, with tenacity and sacrifice, the country and the nation that we celebrate and cherish today."
The Defence Minister also showed his appreciation for the servicemen at home and abroad. "Thank you to the 3,000 Romanians in military uniforms that will march under the majestic arcade [the Triumphal Arch], as well as the thousands of professionals in the entire national defence system (...) My thanks and thoughts of appreciation also go towards the servicemen celebrating the National Day deployed in theaters of operations, where they represent Romania with honor and professionalism," Motoc said.
