Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAE) specified that the Border Police of the Republic of Moldova on Monday decided to send back from the Albita border checkpoint the group of Romanians who were set to participate in the Union Parade, while claiming that they were "disturbing public order" in the border area.
"The Romanian Embassy in the Republic of Moldova took notice of the existence of a group of Romanian citizens that, on August 27 2018, wanted to cross to the Republic of Moldova, as well as about the press release sent by the Border Police from the Republic of Moldova. According to the specifications of the abovementioned institution, "the Romanian citizens, who were set to participate in the Union Parade, were banned from crossing the state border and from stepping into the Moldovan territory. The reason was that they disturbed public order in the border area and also violated the checkpoints regime. We mention that this was a decision of the authorities in the Republic of Moldova and that the Romanian Embassy in Chisinau will have a discussion with the authorities in the Republic of Moldova about the rights of the Romanian citizens, which must be observed, according to the internal regulations of this state and the international obligations of the Republic of Moldova," mentions MAE.
Platforma Unionista Actiunea 2012 [unionist platform - translator's note] on Monday sent a release to AGERPRES showing that 35 Romanian citizens who were set to participate in the Centennial Parade were banned from entering Moldova.
