Ukraine will observe Romanian Language Day, which is celebrated every year on August 31, Foreign Minister Oana Toiu announced in Chernivtsi on Friday, as she delivered a press conference together with her Moldovan and Ukrainian counterparts Mihai Popsoi and Andrii Sybiha.
"We welcome the initiative to include the day dedicated to Romanian language in the calendar of Ukraine's official observances. We hope for a smooth progress in this direction, mirroring the Ukrainian Language Day in Romania," Toiu declared.
The Romanian foreign minister will meet on Friday afternoon with the Romanian community in the Chernivtsi region.
"This trilateral meeting is taking place in Chernivtsi, a region with a historical Romanian community. There are over 180,000 Romanian-speaking Ukrainian citizens and I am happy to engage with them today," Oana Toiu said.
On Thursday, in a meeting with Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian Parliament) Ruslan Stefanchuk, the Romanian foreign minister emphasized "the need to focus more on the needs of ethnic Romanians living in Ukraine."
